Looking at the trough orientation for next Tuesday we will probably be looking at some flurries or brief snow shower in NW GA for the second time this month.

If you haven't noticed, this is a Raleigh heavy subforum. Atlanta posters should probably spend as much time reading the Tennessee Valley su forum. Raleigh not getting any snow is the reason for this thread.

At least there is football...

I stole the second pic.

We had 10" The NWS map had a foot on the Cobb/Paulding line over a good chunk of area.

Mountain City, GA -18" Cobb County GA-12" Just two of many places around here.

It really does have to be a perfect set up. You need a parent high in the northeast and the storm a good ways off the coast for anything. Columbia only has one wind direction that can bring in cooler air and that is northeast. North and northwest are downsloping winds.

I can't believe the models are showing a deformation band for tonight, crazy.

Winter Storm warnings now from the western suburbs of Atlanta northeast to the mountains, I guess the models finally triggered it.

There is the cold front draped across the south right now just north of Atlanta, I'm sure as the storm moves east it will pull some drier/cooler air in from the north.

There isn't a map, just points on the map of major airports. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/sref/srefplumes/

SREF mean for ATL is 1.88" GVL 2.75" GSP 3.72"

Mine too!

Very interesting. Models must be picking up on some increased precipitation bursts. Thanks for sharing.
