I think we're screwed as far as accumulation...especially on roadways....I think we still will probably see some flakes, but my confidence is completely shot now on this deal. I hope I'm wrong, but I just don't see it happening. Dewpoint is up to 34 degrees....this stuff makes me not want to live here (and who wants a **** earthquake anyway?)

It is time out for forecasting. FACT: It is snowing at the 0C 850mb line right now in Extreme NW MS. I have ground confirmation of it!! Heavy precip rates have done the job!!! Let it ride to N AL!!! It is also snowing like crazy in West Memphis!! It is colder than the models are giving it credit for. More updates to follow!

West Memphis: 10 13:53 N 6 0.50 Snow Fog OVC003 33 31 30.08 1018.9 0.05

Memphis Airport: 1514 34 34 86 NNW/3 30.08 1/2 SNOW

Tunica, MS 1520 34 23 93 N/13 30.07 1 1/4 SNOW

It is colder than the models are givint it credit for becuase of evaporative cooling with the snow.

Enjoy it guys! :D
