Miracle dusting of snow this morning, with temps in the teens, it coated roads. Not icy though, really dry snow.
That is very interesting. I'm curious to see the snow ratios down there. Have to look into that soon. Arctic air = fluff snow. Not something we see here much let alone down there.
Current temps, radar, storm reports, and metars. Up to 3/4" of sleet in LA and 2.5" of snow in southern MS.
Crazy warnings map for the Gulf and Atlantic coasts. Not very often you see coastal Louisiana, Northern Florida, and South Carolina under winter storm warnings.
