Mrs.J

We just got back from Atlanta tonight. Expected it to be really cold but honestly the 40 and damp down there was worse than the 32 and dry up here.

So we have been down in GA since Thursday. Have based at my IL’s in NE GA but went to Atlanta yesterday to see other family. It is cold raw and damp down here. And after getting back to their house this afternoon my FIL said he said that they got some snow dusting in their yard overnight. Let’s just say we did not come down for the weather but misjudged just how cold it would be.

Can confirm. Kid in DC cold rain. Frederick for me currently sleet/ freezing rain. Kid up in Carlisle PA just showed a FT video of it puking down snow. She said about 3” on the ground now. She is thinking they will be on the higher end of the 3-6 prediction for her area.

So my rain gauge stoped recording rain at 5:14 am with .22" recorded up to that point I just ventured out into the slop to see if I could see why it stopped. The funnel was filled with sleet. And I am guessing the inner dip spoon is frozen. So I can say that at 5:14 am today is the point where I switched over from just rain to sleet/freezing rain. I cleaned the funnel out but that probably was not worth it as it will just fill back up.

After closer inspection of the trees we do in fact have ice up here.

From kid in PA

I am getting reports from both kids. The one in DC is not happy with her cold rain. Meanwhile the one up in Carlisle PA just found out her campus is closed today. And here in Frederick Co I just checked and FCPS MD is closed. My weather app says light freezing rain here. But I am sure up in the mountains it is more than that. ETA with no kids in FCPS anymore just found out the reason for no 2 hr delay was today is an early dismissal day. So would not have made sense to do a delay only to send the kids back home.

Ah, I see white stuff flying around here.

Well surprise surprise. Just got a downpour all be it short. Had 1/4” hail with it. 0.16”.

.49 for the day. Had about a hour of some solid rain coming down.

It does not feel like 42 out. It is quite raw and damp making it feel in the upper 20’s even though the feels like temp is 39.

Had more rain than I thought. The event for here was 0.46"

Just popped into radar and am surprised at what I see. Will see if it maintains over the mountains. From my experience we usually get it when it comes up from the SW more than directly from the W.

As of right now looks like another southern special.

Low of 23.5 at 6:59 this morning. Just finished my last morning doing my friends farm. Was all layered up but by the time I was finished had peeled off almost all my layers.
