Are those returns in S central TN / N MS making the ground at all?

I'm getting itty bitty flurries here just north of Madison at 9:30 pm.

I'm also interested in snow falling around Tampa Bay. They haven't had sleet, freezing rain &/ snow since 09 Jan 2010. That depended on which part of TB you were in. Widespread snow flurries haven't occurred since Dec 89, though some fell north of town in 96. So I'm interested in here in Hoover, AL & where my heart still lives, Tampa Bay, FL. TB/C. FL won't get their reports until late tomorrow night & early Sunday am though.

I expect mostly not, no - you'll notice around most of the radar sites is just the normal ground clutter, and the returns are all further away, where the radar beam is higher.
Mid level moisture is definitely rolling in though, from the north.
Lines up pretty well with the returns you see on radar.
Not sure if it ever gets heavy enough to do much but hang around up there, but fingers crossed.

It seems the latest models dry up snow potential for all but far N & E AL.

I was up in Hazel Green this evening and there were some light flurries about 8:30 - just enough to see them on the windshield
I'm really surprised by the lack of Wind Advisories especially for areas that still have ice on trees/powerlines.

Looks like there’s slightly under a 50/50 chance that Wedowee could see a tenth to two tenths inch of snow.

Aren't yall supposed to get at least 0.25"/0.613cm snow?

Latest track has moved the low back SW. Hopefully that helps. I'd like to get enough for Jeffco to be the SW corner for the Winter Weather Advisory.
Also of significant importance, last Sunday temps in Tampa Bay were in the mid-80sF/~30C. It just so happens that the NHL will hold its 2026 Winter Classic at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, which looks likely to be the coldest weekend day since January 2010. Temps will run 45-48F/7.5-9C, with winds of 10-20 mph/15-30 kmph. There were concerns about keeping the ice cold, since ideally surroundings require temps be at or below 50F/10C. But that WILL NOT be a problem for Tampa Bay this Sunday! Since the Maple Leafs aren't playing, go Bolts!

Anyone see any flurries out there? It looks like the radar is starting to fill in NW AL. BMX issued this at 2:22am...

Snow can be seen on the Birmingham and Clanton ALDOT cameras.
It's hard to tell from the camera, but it looks like there are some minor accumulations in Arab.
Edit: No accumulations in Arab.

The Alabama Weather Network is live streaming this event. Soon it will not be big news that they can do this for hours without interrupting regular programming on linear television.
