Georgia SNOWFALL Map
03/03/2009 08:45
The NWS office out of Peachtree City (FFC) has put out a SNOWFALL map for the March 1st storm.
As you can see, the band is very narrow. Typical of an upper level driven system. Those of you who actually got SNOW should be very grateful! At the height of the storm, I had roughly 2 inches on the ground. If it had been below freezing and/or overnight, I'm sure it would have been somewhere closer to 6-8 inches. So those even luckier folks in the greens and oranges could have gotten nearly a foot had the surface conditions been a few degrees colder.
I hope we can see one more SNOWFALL map this year before the misery of Spring and Summer arrives. The odds are not in our favour, but they aren't zero. Keep praying and hoping!
