My brother and SIL are in Hilton Head SC and got 2" - 3" of sleet right on the coast. He sent me pictures today and it looked like full winter smack down with palm fronds blowing in the background. Once in a lifetime event for so many people.
As a weather geek, I find it amazing what transpired yesterday in the deep south. Parishes in New Orleans got 6"+ of snow and parts of N Florida had 4-8" of snow with some wind swept powder. Incredible.
The friends and relatives I have in the deep south have said it’s incredible that there has been snow on the ground all day and now a night in the 20s.
That Savannah to Hilton head area looks like it is getting smoked.
i’m hoping my brother sends me pics from Hilton Head in the morning.
When he went to bed at 10am, there was a coating, but it was a mix of rain, snow and sleet.
