January 23-25th Winter Wx

[MichelleH]

Woke up an hour ago to a light dusting and heavy flurries. Now it's a bit more than flurries and seems to be snowing harder. The snow cover on the deck table is getting thicker. We had not planned on getting off this hill today anyway, so it's kind of cool to see, I guess.

30 here, and my deck is icy, but the concrete driveway has dried out nicely. Hopefully the roads will be the same.

One of my buddies in Nashville without power has a generator and a fire place and his house still got down to 50 degrees last night. The road outside his house is blocked by downed trees too. Pretty terrified of what we're going to hear coming out of Tennessee and Mississippi today.

Alabama was saved by the warm nose. They had us under the gun initially before changing it (models changed).

Still hundreds of thousands of people without power from eastern TX to western TN. Worried about those in NW MS and western TN specifically, as wind chills may go well below zero tonight.

Not to derail, but I love the cherrypicked data and the blue arrows that mean pretty much nothing in this tweet. There's mountains of primary literature and data showing that anthropogenic climate change is undeniable at this point, and there's even primary literature showing that the oscillatory nature of the Sun's power output (roughly 1361 W/m2 right now but consistently oscillating) has pretty much zero contribution to the general warming trend. "Entering into a mini ice age?" What in the world does this individual even mean by that?

This tweet is garbage. I'm not going to hold my tongue on it either. Just because it gets cold during the winter still in North America doesn't mean climate change is a hoax. If anyone wants to talk to me about this, DMs would be the best place.

Especially coming from noted climatologist..*looks at handle*…FinanceLancelot haha

In terms of Kentucky, that WAA really pushed the heavy snow line almost up to the KY/OH border. Around my parts it got into the low 40s yesterday and even rained here. Which is always preferable to ice.

Final total: 15-16 inches

Very light sleet/snow flurries at Old Cahawba Park in Dallas County, AL right now

Would have loved to have a couple of inches of that 16 you have there

Very jealous!

 

[warneagle]

looks like we ended up with 6.9" at DCA (not sure if that's including accumulating sleet or not since I'm not really sure exactly when it changed over yesterday)

Our total is 12.5"; the daily snowfall record and monthly record daily snowfall in January for Columbus was broken yesterday with 11.9".

 

[JPWX]

Whole ground frozen solid with just several patches of a light dusting of snow.

 

[Blountwolf]

Up to 34 here. Warmer than expected, I'll take it.

Up to 34 here. Warmer than expected, I'll take it.

It's a balmy 22.6 north of Huntsville, after a blistering high of 23.5.

Still a few flurries flying this evening.

Situation in Mississippi is severe. Power companies say it could be weeks before power is restored. People who missed out on major ice need to be thanking their lucky stars.

You never forget that sound.

Freezing rain totals in Louisiana. Dodged the worst of it in my area.
