Same here. I'm happy. Quite a few people in Alabama to my west/south got screwed totally.

Changeover has made it all the way to Eufaula(almost the SE corner of AL) as it's ending.

Getting Snow Flurries here at my house just east of Destin, FL in Miramar Bch and 38F outside.

Radar has begun to show north to south moving bands over the Panhandle and it is this precip bringing the snow!

Snowing here again this morning and lol at this:

Snow flurries flying all over NW Florida from Pensacola to Tallahassee!

[bella_may]

They've been getting flurries all around my house in southeast mississippi but none here

[SunnyThoughts]

I haven't seen a flurry yet, but it sure is cold. Don't think it'll make the mid 40's today as forecast highs.

Amazing storm, from flurries in Fla ..snow all the way up the east coast. Just amazing.

Getting awfully close

[JonathanBelles]

So far I have heard confirmed reports from Tallahasee, Jacksonville, and Gainesville and a few scattered nonwitness reports from western FL (Pensacola and Crestview). Pretty good event if you ask me.

[MGC]

Saw some flurries this morning here on the Miss Coast and my sister saw some in Hammond La.....MGC

[Ntxw]

Hm so the GFS/NAM didn't do a great job on this system. They were correct that the most (accumulative snows) would be in northern half of Alabama/Georgia/Carolinas but didn't have nearly enough showing 1-3 inches in most cases. Ended up 4+ in some parts and a foot east of RDU. Flurries elsewhere, but that's always a wild card with cold air masses. Congrats to those who got the ultimate Christmas present.

[Tstormwatcher]

Now we wait for the next one. Wonder how long it will be before the models show a good southern snowstorm possible.

[Ivanhater]

So where again is this warm la Nina we were
Promised?

[Ivanhater]

Wow ...deep freeze on the euro

Let me paraphrase that image for you.

IN SOVIET RUSSIA, FORECAST WOULD STILL BE COLD! (and drink you!)
