I realize that this is a Mnt/FtHill thread but just to give you guys an idea of what's downstream from you. Fox 10 in Mobile has a reporter at the Southern Miss campus in Hattiesburg and it is ripping quarter size flakes with about 3" on the ground already. This is going to be a good one folks!

   Mesoscale Discussion 1787
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0755 AM CST Fri Dec 08 2017

   Areas affected...Far West-central MS...Central AL...Northwest GA

   Concerning...Heavy snow 

   Valid 081355Z - 081700Z

   SUMMARY...Occasionally moderate to heavy snowfall (i.e. snowfall
   rates around 1 inch per hour) are possible over the next several
   hours across portions of central AL and northwest GA

   DISCUSSION...Recent surface observations show that temperatures
   across central AL and northwest GA have cooled enough to support
   snow. Several sites are already reporting moderate snow with
   isolated/brief instances of heavy snow (i.e. visibility less than
   1/4SM) also being reported. Relatively heavier band of precipitation
   is currently ongoing across southeast MS/southwest AL and its
   northeasterly motion is expected to take it into central AL and
   northwest GA over the next few hours. As a result, snowfall rates
   may occasionally top 1 inch per hour in isolated locations.
   Subfreezing surface wet-bulb temperatures are expected to remain
   north of a line from MEI northeastward to RMG, keeping areas south
   of this line predominately rain.
