1234snow Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Snow reported last hour in Shreveport, LA. Interesting. The 0c line is right over top of them right now. The precip started to fill in quickly this evening over AL/MS/TN and is spreading north pretty quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Snow reported last hour in Shreveport, LA. Interesting. The 0c line is right over top of them right now. The precip started to fill in quickly this evening over AL/MS/TN and is spreading north pretty quick. And the thickness is crashing right now, plus 925 temps are well below zero. This will translate east northeast tomorrow for far north Alabama and most of Tennessee and northwest GA eventually briefly. If you really want to see it snow , northeast TN into most of West Va is looking pretty good by tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griteater Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 That's been quite an explosion of moisture over the past 6 hours moving out of LA toward E TN. Don't normally see the precip advance that rapidly. Chattanooga gets it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May leave tomorrow night to get a head start on the snow. Guys on the PA forum said rough drive through west va? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't normally see the precip advance that rapidly. Chattanooga gets it again. And NW GA! lol dude no joke this rain moved and expanded from LA to GA in like an hour this evening. Got back into moderate rain by 7 this evening. Prob looking at over another inch. This makes almost 3 inches in the past two days on top of the 7"+ last week. Just bringing me some flakes tomorrow and I will be happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ams30721us Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Wow FFC actually did an evening text update: FFC: AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 1003 PM EST TUE DEC 6 2011 .UPDATE... RAIN CONTINUES ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING...AND OVERALL FORECAST LOOKS TO BE ON TRACK. HAVE MADE A FEW MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO HOURLY TEMPERATURES. BIG QUESTION WILL BE POTENTIAL FOR SNOW ACROSS EXTREME NORTH GEORGIA TOMORROW WITH THE INFLUENCE OF THE FRONT AS THE SYSTEM LIFTS TO THE NORTH. NAM AND GFS MORE GUNG-HO ABOUT THE POTENTIAL FOR SNOW...BRINGING MODEL ACCUMULATIONS AS FAR SOUTH AS THE ATLANTA METRO AREA. SREF MORE RESERVED WITH BEST SNOW CHANCES AFTER 21Z WED AND ONLY ACROSS NE AL AND THE TN-GA BORDER. BUFFER SOUNDINGS SHOWING THE INFLUENCE OF THE COLD AIR MORE PROMINENT IN THE CHATTANOOGA AREA...AND NOT INDICATIVE OF SNOWY PRECIPITATION FURTHER SOUTH. THE EXTENT OF THE COLD AIR WILL BE THE THING TO WATCH. FOR NOW...LOOKS LIKE SYSTEM WILL LIFT OUT OF THE AREA BEFORE WE SEE THE COLDER TEMPERATURES. HAVE OPTED TO WAIT ON UPDATING THE FORECAST FOR SNOW OR RAIN-SNOW POSSIBILITY...AND ALLOW THE MIDNIGHT SHIFT TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THE MODEL DATA AND MAKE THE CALL.

At least these thing are packing the juice if you are in the right place. Sooner or later one will swing by Columbus or Valdosta. Or Tampa.

BIG FROSTY Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 LOL, I knew they would take snow out of my forecast this morning!!! TONIGHT...MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH RAIN LIKELY IN THE EVENING...THEN MOSTLY CLEAR AFTER MIDNIGHT. WINDY AND MUCH COOLER WITH LOWS IN THE LOWER 30S. NORTHWEST WINDS 20 TO 30 MPH.

Local Yokel Wx Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 New WWA for GSP cwa. Slightly less accumulations but including a broader area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 The RUC this AM is showing very little in the way of snowfall for the valleys. Should be a modest event for the mountains though. I can't really complain since it is early December and any accumulating snow would be earlier than I'm used to in the northern TN Valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoothillsNC Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 This thing is moving quickly, much more quick than I thought. It should be ending by midnight in the southern Apps region, and not nearly as much throwback of moisture into ne Tn as I thought. Now I'm thinking a few hours of snow then clearing. A few inches in West Va and into Pa as well where moisture meets the colder for longer. With the clearing tonight black ice is going to be a problem with temps below freezing.

LithiaWx Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Dobbins just cleared 1.01 for the storm total. Last night was a good soaking, very pleased.

franklin NCwx Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Yeah, only looking at about 2 hours of snow on the backside. Good thing this is mostly a rain event and I never got excited about it. This thing is moving quickly, much more quick than I thought.

EmersonGA Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'm up to .4 now. And it is still raining. Heck, I might make half an inch Tony I had 1.5" when I left this morning at 6:15. Probably got another .2" or so. I'm creeping up on 50" for the year so not bad considering how my neighbors to the south and southwest are doing. That snow in MS and AL is teasing me on the radar.

EmersonGA Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 FXUS62 KFFC 071610 AAC AFDFFC AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 1110 AM EST WED DEC 7 2011 .UPDATE... WILL BE ISSUING WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHWEST GEORGIA. RAIN ALREADY CHANGING OVER TO SNOW IN NORTH CENTRAL ALABAMA...AND LOOKING AT FRONTOGENESIS FIELDS AND SATURATED POTENTIAL VORTICITY...AM SEEING INDICATIONS OF POSSIBLE BANDING EARLY THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS NORTHWEST GEORGIA. ENOUGH SATURATION FOR DENDRITIC GROWTH ALOFT AND EVEN THOUGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES MIGHT BE JUST ABOVE FREEZING IT WILL PROBABLY BE MOSTLY SNOW AT THE SURFACE ONCE IT STARTS CHANGING OVER...IT WILL JUST MELT FAIRLY QUICKLY. COMPARING BUFR SOUNDINGS FOR BRASSTOWN AND CHATTANOOGA...DRY AIR REALLY SURGES IN THIS AFTERNOON SO DO NOT EXPECT THE NORTHEAST GEORGIA MOUNTAINS TO GET MUCH...SO HAVE NO PLANS TO ISSUE ADVISORY FOR THAT AREA. HAVE KEPT SNOW GRIDS TO AROUND ONE HALF INCH ACROSS NORTHWEST GEORGIA AND EVEN AT THAT EXPECT THAT IT WILL REMAIN AT THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. HAVE MADE SOME MINOR TWEAKS TO HOURLY TEMPS...WE HAVE ALREADY REACHED THE HIGH FOR THE DAY ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA...SO HAVE JUST SPED UP THE DOWNWARD TREND IN TEMPS. LOTS OF TWEAKS TO WEATHER GRIDS TO ADJUST THE SNOW AND MIX WORDING...BUT OTHERWISE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES. WILL ALSO PLAN TO ISSUE SPS FOR THE REMAINDER OF NORTH GEORGIA... INCLUDING METRO ATLANTA...TO COVER THE POTENTIAL FOR BLACK ICE TONIGHT. WITH STRONG WINDS /SEE WIND ADVISORY/ TODAY...AM HOPING THAT MOST MOISTURE EVAPORATES BEFORE TEMPS DROP TO FREEZING BUT NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT SOME AREAS COULD STILL SEE PROBLEMS. UPDATED PRODUCTS WILL BE OUT SHORTLY. My forecast changed to Rain/Snow today and Snow Showers tonight. I know it won't accumulate but seeing flakes again would make me happy.
