The second major winter storm in as many weeks hit north and central Georgia on February 12th. An area of extremely strong cold air damming moved down the Eastern Seaboard and into north Georgia on the 12th. Southwest flow aloft allowed significant moisture to move across the Southeast, with a disturbance pushing across the southern tier of the country. A surface low developed in the northern Gulf on the 12th, pushing into extreme Southeast Georgia on the 13th. Moisture overspread the area in advance of the surface low and with cold surface temperatures in place from the cold air damming, another significant winter storm hit the area.
This storm was different from the storm two weeks prior for two main reasons: firstly, residents across north and central Georgia were well-prepared for the event, and secondly, this storm brought with it catastrophic accumulations of ice along the Interstate 20 corridor east of Atlanta towards Athens. Significant amounts of snow fell in north Georgia as well. The crippling nature of this winter storm, unlike the first, was not necessarily due to the societal impacts but rather to the significant accumulations of ice and snow and resulting widespread power outages.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
650 AM EST TUE FEB 11 2014
.SHORT TERM /TODAY/...
PRECIP WITH THIS INITIAL WAVE HAS ALREADY STARTED TO SPREAD ACROSS
THE CWA. ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA THIS IS MAKING IT TO THE GROUND AS
RAIN. NORTH AND WEST OF ATL...THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS OF A
RAIN/SLEET MIX WITH SOME SNOW. ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS...SOME LIGHT
RETURNS ON RADAR AND THIS ACTUALLY HAS BEEN MAKING IT TO THE GROUND
AS SNOW. TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO BE A VARIABLE IN THE FORECAST
TODAY. CONTINUED TO GO ON THE COOLER SIDE OF MAV/MET MOS...ACTUALLY
THOUGH FORECAST MAX TEMPS ARE NOT TOO FAR OFF FROM THE ECMWF
MOS...MAYBE JUST A TAD WARMER ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE CWA.
CONTINUE TO SUPPORT A WINTRY MIX ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA THROUGH THE
MORNING GIVEN TEMPERATURES. SOUNDING SUPPORT SNOW AT BRASSTOWN
DURING THE MORNING...SNOW/SLEET AT RMG...RAIN/SLEET AT CTJ AND
PRETTY MUCH ALL RAIN AT ATL. MOVING INTO THE AFTERNOON
THOUGH...ATMOSPHERE IS SUPPORTIVE OF RAIN...EXCEPT MAYBE THE
NORTHEAST GA MOUNTAINS. BRASSTOWN BALD BUFR SOUNDING SHOWING RAIN
FOR THE AFTERNOON...BUT THINK THE SFC TEMPS ARE TOO WARM AND ABOVE
THAT...ALL BELOW FREEZING.
STILL NOT SUPER CONFIDENT ON THE AMOUNTS AS THE TEMPERATURES WILL
PLAY SUCH A BIG ROLE IN AREAS THAT SEE SNOW/SLEET AND THOSE THAT
ONLY SEE RAIN. MAINLY THOUGH...LOOKS LIKE UP TO AN INCH OF
SNOW/SLEET FOR TODAY...MAINLY IN THE FLOYD TO LUMPKIN/WHITE
CORRIDOR. CHALLENGE WITH THE FAR NORTH GEORGIA IS THAT GFS AND NAM
ARE CONSERVATIVE WITH PRECIP ACROSS THAT AREA. BASED ON RADAR TRENDS
THOUGH...STILL THINK THEY WILL SEE SOME ACCUMULATION ACROSS THE FAR
NORTH. WILL HAVE TO MONITOR TRENDS CLOSELY TO SEE IF HIGHER AMOUNTS
ARE POSSIBLE. IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS...AMOUNTS FOR TODAY ARE
ON THE LOWER SIDE. A REMINDER AGAIN...EVEN IF YOU RECEIVE LITTLE
IMPACT FROM THE EVENT TODAY...OR EVEN NOTHING AT ALL...THE BIGGER
STORY IS THE TUESDAY NIGHT TO THURSDAY EVENT AND THAT LOOKS TO BE
VERY SIGNIFICANT AND POTENTIALLY PARALYZING FOR MUCH OF THE CWA.
11
.SHORT TERM /00Z WED THRU 12Z THU/...
LETS JUST START BY SAYING THIS WINTER STORM MAY BE OF HISTORIC
PROPORTIONS FOR PORTIONS OF THE AREA. WE ARE LOOKING AT SIGNIFICANT
SNOWFALL TOTALS NORTH /ESPECIALLY NORTHEAST/ AND SIGNIFICANT...
CRIPPLING...ICE TOTALS ESPECIALLY ALONG THE INTERSTATE 20 CORRIDOR.
THE HIGHEST ICE TOTALS WILL BE IN A ROUGH WEDGE GENERALLY FROM THE
METRO ATLANTA AREA AND POINTS EAST...SOUTH OF I-85...AND NORTH OF
I-16.
SYNOPTIC GUIDANCE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT WITH MASS FIELDS. SOUTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT AS A STRONG SHORTWAVE PUSHES INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND
ANOTHER ROUND OF DEEP MOISTURE OVERSPREADS THE SOUTHERN TIER OF THE
COUNTRY. MEANWHILE A SURFACE HIGH PUSHES EAST ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES
AND RIDGES DOWN THE EASTERN SLOPES OF THE APPALACHIANS IN A
DIABATICALLY-ENHANCED CLASSICAL CAD SCENARIO. SURFACE LOW DEVELOPING
IN THE NORTHERN GULF WILL PUSH INTO THE SOUTHEAST ON WEDNESDAY.
ECMWF CONTINUES TO HAVE A SLIGHTLY WESTWARD TRACK FOR THE SURFACE
LOW BUT IS IN MUCH BETTER AGREEMENT WITH GFS VS THIS TIME
YESTERDAY...WITH BOTH MODELS KEEPING THE LOW TO THE SOUTHEAST OF OUR
AREA CLOSE TO THE COAST. UPPER LOW DEEPENS OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND CLOSES OFF BY THE END OF THE PERIOD AT 12Z
THURSDAY.
THE EASY PART...HAVE PRETTY MUCH 100 POPS ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH
THIS PERIOD...BEGINNING TO LIFT OUT AFTER 00Z THURSDAY AND RAPIDLY
DECREASING TOWARD 12Z AS THE SYSTEM EXITS. WINDS ARE ALSO PRETTY
EASY WITH MOST OF THE AREA FIRMLY WITHIN THE COLD DOME...SO EXPECT
STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS 10-15 MPH WITH GUSTS UP TO 25...UNTIL THE
COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH TOWARD THE END OF THE PERIOD WITH MUCH
LIGHTER WINDS BEHIND IT.
NOW ONTO THE DIFFICULT...AND VERY CONCERNING...PARTS. GUIDANCE IS IN
DISTURBINGLY GOOD AGREEMENT ON TEMPS THROUGH THE EVENT WITH LOWS
TONIGHT BELOW FREEZING IN NORTHEAST ZONES AS THE COLD DOME PUSHES
IN. VERY LITTLE TEMPERATURE CHANGE EXPECTED THROUGH THE DAY ON
WEDNESDAY. EVERYONE SHOULD BE AT OR BELOW FREEZING FOR WEDNESDAY
NIGHT ON THE BACK EDGE OF THE SYSTEM. NOW...AS WITH ANY WINTRY
PRECIP EVENT...ACTUAL SURFACE TEMPS MAY VARY SLIGHTLY AND ANY
VARIATION COULD RESULT IN SOME PRETTY SERIOUS FORECAST BUSTS...BUT
GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE COLD DOME CONFIDENCE IS FAIRLY HIGH IN
SURFACE TEMPS.
AS THE COLD DOME BUILDS IN...WAA AND OVERRUNNING ATOP THE COLD DOME
WILL STRENGTHEN THE WARM NOSE BETWEEN 800-900MB. IN THE ABSENCE OF
HORIZONTAL THERMAL ADVECTION...DIABATIC PROCESSES DOMINATE AND WITH
THE LATENT HEAT OF MELTING INTO THE WARM NOSE AND FREEZING INTO THE
COLD DOME...FREEZING RAIN WOULD BE A SELF-LIMITING PROCESS.
HOWEVER...SURFACE CAA CERTAINLY LOOKS STRONG ENOUGH TO OVERCOME THIS
ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN ZONES. SO WITH THAT...EXPECT RAIN TONIGHT TO
MIX WITH OR CHANGE OVER TO A SLEET/SNOW MIX ACROSS EXTREME NORTHERN
ZONES...SPREADING SOUTH INTO THE METRO AREA AROUND MIDNIGHT. AS THE
WAA AT 850MB INCREASES TOWARD SUNRISE...SLEET SHOULD MIX WITH AND
CHANGE OVER TO FREEZING RAIN FROM THE ATLANTA METRO SOUTH TOWARD
MACON. SHOULD BE ALL SNOW IN THE NORTHEAST MOUNTAINS BUT CANNOT RULE
OUT TRACE AMOUNTS OF ICE. EXPECT FREEZING RAIN TO BE PRETTY MUCH
CONTINUOUS THROUGH THE DAY IN THAT I-20 TO I-16 CORRIDOR UNTIL
SURFACE TEMPS WARM SLIGHTLY DURING THE AFTERNOON WHEN THE FREEZING
RAIN MIXES WITH OR CHANGES OVER TO RAIN ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THAT
CORRIDOR. THIS MAY BE A REAL HELP IN THAT ANY LIQUID THAT FALLS WILL
HELP TO MELT ICE ACCUMULATIONS. NOT SO LUCKY I-20 AND AREAS NORTH AS
THE COLD DOME IS STRONG ENOUGH TO KEEP THOSE LOCATIONS BELOW
FREEZING.
AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES CLOSER WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY THURSDAY...
LAPSE RATES ALOFT WILL INCREASE AND EVEN THOUGH MOISTURE DEPTH
SHALLOWS A BIT...DEFORMATION AXIS SHOULD SET UP AT LEAST BRIEFLY AND
COMBINED WITH THE STEEP LAPSE RATES WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING OVER TO
LIGHT SNOW AT THE END. WELL...IN SOME AREAS...IT MIGHT NOT BE QUITE
SO LIGHT...BUT EVERYONE SHOULD TRANSITION TO FROZEN /VS FREEZING/
PRECIP BEFORE THE SYSTEM FINALLY MOVES OUT. LUCKILY WE SHOULD
DEFINITELY SEE SOME IMPROVEMENT ON THURSDAY...WITH CLEARING SKIES
AND TEMPS ON THE INCREASE AGAIN.
SO WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN. WELL...QPF TOTALS THROUGH THE EVENT ARE
IMPRESSIVE WITH OVER 2 INCHES IN SOME AREAS BUT AT LEAST AN INCH
EVERYWHERE. WE ARE DEFINITELY LOOKING AT A WETTER SNOW WITH RATIOS
CLOSER TO 8:1 BUT EVEN SO...THAT WOULD MEAN 8 INCHES OF SNOW WITH 1
INCH LIQUID. NOT SURPRISINGLY...STORM TOTAL SNOWFALL AMOUNTS IN THE
NORTHEAST GEORGIA MOUNTAINS ARE AN IMPRESSIVE 7-9 INCHES...AND
ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS CANNOT BE RULED OUT. THE REST OF NORTH
GEORGIA /ROUGHLY THE NORTHERN TWO TIERS OF COUNTIES/ CAN EXPECT OVER
4 INCHES. THESE STORM TOTALS ARE THROUGH THE DURATION OF THE EVENT
AS PTYPE SHOULD BE MOSTLY SNOW WITH MAYBE SOME SLEET MIXED IN. WITH
THE SNOW ON THE BACK EDGE OF THE SYSTEM...THERE WILL BE A SHARP
GRADIENT ON THE SOUTH SIDE WITH 1-2 INCHES OF SNOW STORM TOTAL IN
THE METRO AREA...THE 1 INCH LINE GENERALLY FROM FRANKLIN TO
WARRENTON...BUT NOTHING EXPECTED FOR EXAMPLE FROM LA GRANGE TO
LOUISVILLE. THE BIGGER IMPACTS ACROSS THE METRO AREA AND POINTS
SOUTH WILL BE FROM THE ICE...WITH CURRENT FORECASTS REFLECTING A
QUARTER OF AN INCH EAST OF A CURVE FROM GAINESVILLE TO CARROLLTON TO
SWAINSBORO. HALF AN INCH FROM DANIELSVILLE TO ATLANTA TO
LOUISVILLE...AND OVER THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH FROM GREENSBORO TO
WARRENTON. THESE TOTALS MAY OF COURSE BE ADJUSTED SOME IN BOTH
LOCATION AND AMOUNTS WITH ADDITIONAL FORECASTS BUT OVERALL I WANT TO
EMPHASIZE AGAIN...THESE ARE CRIPPLING SNOW AND ICE TOTALS IN THIS
STORM OF POTENTIALLY HISTORIC PROPORTIONS. RESIDENTS OF NORTH AND
CENTRAL GEORGIA NEED TO DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TODAY TO PREPARE FOR
THIS EVENT. RESIDENTS ARE VERY VERY VERY STRONGLY URGED TO STAY OFF
THE ROADS WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
TDP
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
SURFACE LOW MOVING OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST THURSDAY MORNING
WITH THE GFS STILL A BIT FARTHER NORTH AND EAST. IN ANY CASE...IT
LOOKS LIKE WRAP AROUND MOISTURE WILL AFFECT THE CWA EARLY AND
THINK IT WILL BE MOSTLY LIGHT SNOW. WE REMAIN IN A NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT SEVERAL WAVES DIVE SOUTHEAST THROUGH MONDAY. THE NEXT SHORT
WAVE MOVING THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY BRINGS SOME MOISTURE SOUTHWARD
INTO THE CWA FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT. HAVE LIMITED POPS TO THE
NORTHERN ZONES FOR THAT TIME. OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES WILL SUPPORT
SOME LIGHT MIX OF PRECIPITATION FOR FRIDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER WAVE
IS ON TAP FOR SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY BUT THE DYNAMICS ARE TOO FAR
NORTH. FINALLY...ANOTHER SHORT WAVE BRINGS A FRONT INTO THE CWA AT
THE END OF THE PERIOD...LATE MONDAY AND HAVE INCLUDED LOW POPS FOR
MONDAY NIGHT.
