Research and tracking of the major winter storm crossing the south/southeast by the hurricane hunters. They do this in major winter storms each year.
From the plan they'll be doing 10 dropsondes along the route to gather data from the storm.

Betcha Savannah won't even get any rain.

Hurricane Hunter: that's unreal... if that pans out, especially after this one, Atlanta and the south in general will be economically devastated.

Re: Deep South Winterwx Discussion
I see Augusta, GA is reporting 33 degrees now. Could possibly be the saving grace from a catastrophic ice storm. South Carolina still seems to be getting hammered. Stay safe over there!

No unless I'm just blind... I have seen some sleet bouncing off the cars since last night but it has not amounted to anything yet.
