MD 0031 CONCERNING WINTER MIXED PRECIPITATION FOR NORTHEAST GA INTO PARTS OF SC
Mesoscale Discussion 0031 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0750 AM CST Fri Jan 10 2025 Areas affected...Northeast GA into parts of SC Concerning...Winter mixed precipitation Valid 101350Z - 101745Z SUMMARY...Winter mixed precipitation may increase through the morning. DISCUSSION...The eastern portion of an extensive precipitation shield is currently spreading across northeast GA into parts of SC. Evaporative cooling and saturation of an initially dry column (as noted on the 12Z CHS sounding) will allow for some increase in winter precipitation rates through the morning. As initial saturation occurs, occasionally moderate snow and/or sleet rates may develop (as noted in upstream observations), though there may be some tendency toward a liquid precipitation phase and freezing-rain potential with time and eastward extent, as warm advection above the surface continues to increase. Some ice accretion will be possible where near-surface cold/dry advection allows subfreezing temperatures to persist through the remainder of the morning into early afternoon. ..Dean.. 01/10/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Severe thunderstorms are not expected through tonight. Occasional thunderstorms and windy/rainy conditions may occur across parts of the central Gulf Coast. ...Synopsis and Discussion... Within a highly amplified longwave pattern over much of the central/southern CONUS, an embedded positively tilted upper trough will continue to develop south-southeastward over northern Mexico, while another embedded shortwave trough amplifies over the Midwest/OH Valley. Ahead of these features, robust low-level warm/moist advection will continue to foster widespread precipitation regionally, with isolated thunderstorm potential focused along/near the central Gulf Coast where weak MUCAPE may exist. Surface-based instability is expected to generally remain offshore, limiting severe potential. Still, given ample lift and strong low-level winds near the eastward-moving cold front and a near-coastal surface low, there is some potential that gusty winds augmented by a low-topped convective line could occur along the immediate coast from far southern AL into parts of the FL Panhandle. ..Gleason/Thornton.. 01/10/2025 Read more

MD 0030 CONCERNING WINTER MIXED PRECIPITATION FOR PARTS OF NORTHEAST MS...NORTHERN AL/GA...SOUTHERN MIDDLE TN
Mesoscale Discussion 0030 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0419 AM CST Fri Jan 10 2025 Areas affected...Parts of northeast MS...northern AL/GA...southern middle TN Concerning...Winter mixed precipitation Valid 101019Z - 101515Z SUMMARY...An increase in winter precipitation rates is possible through the early morning. DISCUSSION...An extensive precipitation shield is gradually spreading eastward across the Southeast early this morning, in advance of a mid/upper-level shortwave trough approaching the lower MS Valley. Precipitation rates across northern AL/GA have thus far been limited by very dry antecedent conditions (as noted in the 00Z BMZ and FFC soundings), but saturation and evaporative cooling of the column will support an increase in winter precipitation across the region with time this morning. The evolution of precipitation type remains uncertain through the morning, due to the competing influences of initial evaporative cooling, increasing warm advection above the surface, and maintenance of modest near-surface cold/dry advection from the east/northeast. Snow may persist as the dominant precipitation type from far northern AL into middle TN, with rates potentially approaching an inch per hour as large-scale ascent increases and the column saturates. From north-central AL into northern GA, mixed precipitation appears more likely, with forecast soundings depicting near to slightly above-freezing temperatures from the surface to around 700 mb once saturation occurs. A general transition from snow/sleet to sleet/freezing rain/rain is possible across these areas. Moderate to locally heavy snow/sleet rates will be possible as the column initially saturates, while some ice accretion may eventually occur where subfreezing near-surface temperatures can persist as precipitation gradually transitions to a liquid phase. ..Dean.. 01/10/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
