Pensacola just put under a winter weather advisory!

[Opal storm]

Pensacola just put under a winter weather advisory!

Just saw that, maybe all hope is not lost. But, looking at the radar precip is about to really dry up here in an hour or so.

The snow has ended here. Current temp 35.8F. Accumulation was less than 2 inches. Kodak is having a very good day.

Well, the Order of the Rolling River Mardi Gras parade set for the Fowl River area this afternoon has been postponed until next Sat. (Crazy idea, IMO, as we'll have 4 parades in town AND the Senior Bowl... but nobody's asked me...) When I've taken the dog out, I'd swear some ice was mixed in with the rain. We'll see what happens next...

It's gonna be cold tonight, no matter what else happens! Brrrrr....

Light snow here in Canton, GA... no accumulation!

Awesome pics Brent. How much have you received so far?

Well the rain has ended here. Any chance of snow or sleet would come from some isolated showers coming from the west. Hate to say it but it's about done here Ivanhater.

Looks like about an inch, maybe a little more. I haven't actually measured it yet. Looks like several more hours to go, so I think 3 inches or maybe more is possible.

lol Maybe I talked too soon, Mobile NWS now forecasting snow/sleet for the rest of the day for Pensacola. I guess we'll see.

[Ivanhater]

Yeah...Ive about given up on it this round...oh so close though!! ugh!
