SnoJoe Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'm over 2 inches since Monday afternoon due to nice training yesterday. Now lets see if we can put a little icing on this cake come evening!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoWeatherman Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 And on the southside of town, I've got around .12". Dry slot city here. Thats a bummer for you. This thing has been training from the sw to the ne very nicely....for me and NW GA at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also assume your temps will crash fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local Yokel Wx Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 The northern section of the county (more twd the TN line) picked up around 3" of rain so far with a nice 1 - 2" across the middle and southern section of Jackson County. Looking forward to see snow flying this afternoon when I leave work, even though it wont stick, still nice to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NGTim Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 1.58" IMBY for this storm so far here in Dahlonega. Had pretty much the same here as of 7:30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaculaWeather Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Thats a bummer for you. This thing has been training from the sw to the ne very nicely....for me and NW GA at least. Only 0.83" here total. I have the Atlanta TDWR radar working on my GRL3 since FFC is down. Much higher resolution than normal NEXRAD but much shorter range too. http://www.daculaweather.com/grlevel3/ga-state_atlanta_tatl_br.php I've got a few missing images right now probably because I'm uploading to my site via my tethered Droid...

Hope so. It's 44.3 now so it won't have to drop too far. With all this rain, I bet the black ice will be more of an issue in the morning than the snow. Sounds like you made up for last week! I did. I really didn't think I'd get this much (2.12 and still raining) with this system. Hope you get a little surprise this evening too, Don. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach B Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Most of N MS and W TN reporting snow the last hour. Memphis was at 32 with 1/2 mile vis. Pretty impressive considering thats two events already for them this early and the crappy pattern we are in. Plus the fact that that area often gets left out while areas east of them do better.

Count my area in that mostly left out category, normally it either snows in e tx /shreveport area and moves north or starts out east of here in al, or take it a step further in years past snows to the south of us in s LA and MS. Maybe this is a good sign we will get something bigger this year. last year we had one storm with about 3.5 inches followed by a 9 degree low.

MountainMarvel Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Great web cam of Graceland... So far, this event has added 2.2 inches to my December total. Never dropped below 60 all night, and that's where she sits now. I plan to drive north later and experience my first flakes. This photo was made one year ago today at Linville. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsaur Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'm over 2 inches since Monday afternoon due to nice training yesterday. Now lets see if we can put a little icing on this cake come evening!! Just remember that it won't be "real" snow you are frolicking in I just had my heaviest shower for about 15 seconds. 50.9, so it feels a lot better than yesterday.

Thunderhead Hawkins Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Its been snowing here for about an hour I guess. Its not sticking though, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WidreMann Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 The typical trend was in full force with this storm. At one point, RAH had two forecast periods with 1/2"-3/4" of rain. Now we get one with tenth to a quarter and that's unlikely to pan out. No rain, no snow. Da da dum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaculaWeather Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 So much for the white hair... let's talk about the fire in the furnace... LOL LOL! On second thought, let's not! AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL 1045 AM CST WED DEC 7 2011 .UPDATE...TODAYS WEATHER. && .DISCUSSION... RAIN HAS CHANGED OVER TO SNOW IN THE WESTERN COUNTIES THIS MORNING AND THE RAIN/SNOW LINE SHOULD SHIFT QUICKLY EASTWARD DURING THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT SURFACE TEMPERATURES SHOULD STAY ABOVE FREEZING IN THE SNOW AREAS...EVEN THOUGH IT MAY BRIEFLY FALL TO 32 DEGREES IN POCKETS OF HEAVIER SNOWFALL. THE OTHER GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE PRECIPITATION SHIELD IS MOVING QUICKLY EASTWARD...AND THE BACK EDGE OF THE HEAVIER SNOW IS APPROACHING TUPELO MISSISSIPPI. SNOWFALL ACCUMULATION SHOULD BE LIMITED TO GRASSY AREAS...AND WITH WEST WINDS OF 10 TO 20 MPH...IT WILL LIKELY MELT AS QUICKLY AS IT FALLS ONCE THE SNOW ENDS. BASED ON FORECAST THICKNESS PROFILES... THERE WILL BE A SEVERAL HOUR WINDOW THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE THE PRECIPITATION ENDS WHERE SNOWFALL IS LIKELY ACROSS NORTHEAST ALABAMA...AND ADDED THREE COUNTIES TO THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY.

DaculaWeather Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 This just in from Huntsville .DISCUSSION...WINTRY PRECIPITATION IS BEGINNING TO SPREAD EASTWARD FROM NW AL INTO THE INTERSTATE 65 CORRIDOR. SPOTTERS, PUBLIC, AND MEDIA REPORTS HAVE BEGUN TO INDICATE THAT ALL SNOW IS OCCURRING OVER PORTIONS OF NW AL WITH A RAIN/SNOW MIX JUST EAST OF LAUDERDALE, COLBERT, AND FRANKLIN AL COUNTIES. STRONG DYNAMIC COOLING EVIDENT OVER N MS WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD EASTWARD. AREA SOUNDINGS (KLZK AND RSA) INDICATE THAT THE COLUMN IS ALMOST COMPLETELY BELOW FREEZING (EXCEPT NEAR THE SURFACE AT RSA) WITH THE COLUMN EXPECTED TO BECOME COMPLETELY SATURATED UP TO THE -20C LAYER ALOFT. FROM THE SFC OBS, IT DOES APPEAR THAT ALL SNOW IS OCCURRING OVER NW AL. THIS ALL SNOW PRECIPITATION WILL CONTINUE TO OVERSPREAD THE INTERSTATE 65 CORRIDOR AND NE AL/FRANKLIN, MOORE COUNTIES IN TN BY EARLY AFTERNOON (1-3 PM). WITH REGARDS TO EXPECTED ACCUMULATIONS, IT APPEARS THAT ONE HALF TO ONE INCH ACCUMULATION IS LIKELY OVER NW AL AND THE INTERSTATE 65 CORRIDOR WITH HIGHER ACCUMULATIONS (2 TO 3 INCHES) OVER NE AL. THE HIGHER ACCUMULATIONS ARE MAINLY EXPECTED DUE TO TOPOGRAPHIC EFFECTS OVER THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU. SO, GIVEN THESE EXPECTED ACCUMULATIONS, HAVE UPGRADED NE AL, FRANKLIN TN, AND MOORE COUNTIES TO A WINTER STORM WARNING WITH THE REST OF THE AREA IN A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY. FURTHER UPDATES ARE POSSIBLE AS THE EVENT UNFOLDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
