Wintry Winter Storm Dec 7-10

[ATLwxfan]

Don't waste your time I am about 30 miles NW of conyers and there isn't jack here.

Rain snow line in far northwest suburbs. May not meet advisory level criteria in Atlanta. Tantalizingly close. Hopefully as rates go up we will get some pretty flakes.

9Z SREF is just off the charts for WNC

Wow, I️ literally forgot I️ had a friend that lives up in Dahlonega what the hell am I️ doing here.

I'm in Dahlonega right now. Steady snow not much on ground. 30 miles to the northwest in elijay is a different story.

Going live on the southernwx fb page in 15 minutes . If you wanna see what an overachiever looks like for the third straight year you should watch

Hrrr keeps showing near 0c pockets at 850 that get close here then up to y’all Webb and Shane under heaviest precipitation

 

[WeatherLC]

I agree. Sun angle is great. Also, the warm nose is not moving much and is cooling. The heaviest isn't here yet and will keep getting cooler. Around noon, it may get heavy enough to cover the roads. Roads only a degree or two away from freezing.

I'll be headed up towards Murphy this afternoon. Hopefully I can make it.

Yeah I noticed. It's either going to do nothing here or snow like nobody's business but that's what it's going to take aloft to melt enough hydrometeors and erode this warm nose and near surface warm layer. Seems possible but not too likely yet

Huge flakes here now, ground turning white.

All or nothing seems to be the way our snow goes around here the past 17 years.

12z hrrr is trolling the Charlotte area very hard:

I don’t think this map will be accurate. I’m in N Walker County AL, have barely even seen a flake. It shows us in the 2” zone.


Correction: guess the atmosphere finally moistened up. Been virga all morn on radar, starting to snow lightly now.

 

[CobraMedic]

So with the amount of snow coming down in the I20 area, will that effect the temps? Will it still get to 40 at noon?

 

[Aleksey Sceviour]

Just curious, does anyone think the warm nose will break down on the eastern side of Atlanta by late tonight? It seems like everywhere else is way over performing and I’ve heard reports that the warm nose is alreasy cooling?

 

[Rosie]

Awesome Rosie..you still over in Ne ga mountains?

Yes, outside Blairsville.

 

[Arcc]

Pouring snow with everything turning white fast.

Secondary roads in Sylacauga starting to get a little slushy

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0755 AM CST Fri Dec 08 2017

Areas affected...Far West-central MS...Central AL...Northwest GA

Concerning...Heavy snow

Valid 081355Z - 081700Z

SUMMARY...Occasionally moderate to heavy snowfall (i.e. snowfall
rates around 1 inch per hour) are possible over the next several
hours across portions of central AL and northwest GA

DISCUSSION...Recent surface observations show that temperatures
across central AL and northwest GA have cooled enough to support
snow. Several sites are already reporting moderate snow with
isolated/brief instances of heavy snow (i.e. visibility less than
1/4SM) also being reported. Relatively heavier band of precipitation
is currently ongoing across southeast MS/southwest AL and its
northeasterly motion is expected to take it into central AL and
northwest GA over the next few hours. As a result, snowfall rates
may occasionally top 1 inch per hour in isolated locations.
Subfreezing surface wet-bulb temperatures are expected to remain
north of a line from MEI northeastward to RMG, keeping areas south
of this line predominately rain.

I don't think it will. Its still 40 degrees here

 

[RollTide18]

Hopefully the models are overdoing the warm nose

Agreed
