I lived in Memphis, TN metro for about 10 years in the 70's/80's - I recall multiple snowfalls over 4 inches and 1 snowfall over 12 inches. Obviously, ignore snowfall totals from one global model this far out; however, a MAJOR winter storm is coming for the Mid-South - prepare!

largest snowflakes of the night, temp at 33

temp slowly rising, temp at 33.1; mod sleet

right on the line - heavy sleet at the moment - crazy

32.9, lots of recent mixing - mainly sleet now!

that is amazing...32.9 with mod snow...live about 2 miles "north" of I-85

temp holding steady at 33.0 rates lowering now light snow

1m temp at 33.0; mod snow; roads covered now

33.2/moderate snow with large flakes

mostly light snow, 34.4

36.8/definite snow mixing

sleet, snow is mixing now, temp 37.2

mod to heavy sleet near DT Greenville, SC, temp slowly falling, 37.7

interesting, I'm at 38.5/37 - temp very dependent on rates - 2 miles north of I-85 near DT Greenville - mixing occurs with higher precip rates - precip lightens and the temp can rise 1/2 degree and mixing stops

Chris Justus lives in the TR area (pretty sure) - maybe he has a bit of backyard bias

yes, still sleeting in Greenville - but quite mild at 42

time for an obs thread?

bingo...and I live in the sleet capital of the US...never experienced so much sleet since I moved here...live near I85 which is normally the dividing line between liquid/frozen precip (in marginal CAD events)...this storm has potential...

My wife and I lived in Seneca (actually in a lake community north of Seneca) from 2003 thru 2006. I remember that 2004 storm! I worked in Anderson at the time - was released from my position early that morning (mod snow in Anderson); but, after driving home to Seneca, snow rates significantly subsided - I think we rec'd about 1/2 inch, at most. I wanted to stay in Oconee County - amazingly beautiful lakes with easy access to NC mountains (Cashiers, Highlands) - we'd drive up to Highlands at least once a month. However, my wife disliked Seneca/Oconee County (esp after we had our first two children) - then, after a short stay in Chattanooga (and another child!), we moved back to SC, into the city of Greenville - wife is much happier. I have great memories of Lake Keowee and the easy access to mountain activities. Absolutely correct on all points - now that I live in Greenville, I seem to receive more ice/snow.

I strongly feel this winter will be special for most everyone on the board - don't think you will have to wait another 15 years

no, the storm was delayed per CJ - I witnessed rain beginning about 5:30am that quickly changed to snow - now, just flurries

I'm just south of DT G'ville - I have mod snow and 32 - sticking on all grassy surfaces - soon roads

Enjoy your time in Tallahassee - the FL Panhandle is great - you are <90 min from the best beaches in the country (IMO much better than any beaches in NC/SC) - drive a little further west and you will reach my retirement spot, 30-A!

my wife reports some sleet near DT Greenville, SC (mods please move to obs)

Our CAD storm will come - I predict before the end of the year
