Weather Dawgs -- what should we expect

[Mimi's Babies]

What should we expect for Monday night into Tuesday concerning the weather in Dawg Country? Thanks.

[parabrave]

Is that Dawg country south north east coast? Dawg country is pretty big. But Tues night probably pretty cold if the past indicators hold true.

[starkvegasdawg]

Latest thinking is a burst of snow will move from NW to SE starting late Monday night. Heaviest accumulations look to be over the Delta. I?d guess 1-3?. Chance it could be a little more if the front can ring out the moisture effectively.

I?d be planning on it as it looks now. Just keep in mind that temps will plummet after the front passes so whatever falls is not going anywhere.

Do they clear the roads there at all?

I feel your pain. I leave at 6:00am for work.

[starkvegasdawg]

Some, but not to a huge degree. The major highways they may try to plow or put sand down on bridges, but everything else is left up to the sun.

Snowing In Starkville

Snowing In Starkville

I just looked at the radar and you're just on the edge. It's quite a bit heavier to your south, and the area of snow is pretty big. There's more coming into Memphis from the NW now too.

Actually, just looked at temps and it's a lot warmer in the heavier area south of you. It's reporting as still being snow, but is as high as 40-41 degrees. The snow might cool the air as it melts though, but down there it's probably not accumulating yet, if ever.

You understand global warming to mean winter temperatures will be higher?

Pretty sure he?s being sarcastic.

One thing I?ve heard is much less solar activity hitting the earth this year. Summer was mild and winter colder. Most of our weather is impacted by solar radiation hitting earth. More solar flares hitting = warmer temps. Most people forget that our climate is controlled by the sun and its activity.

I’ve got to go to Little Rock today from Brandon and come home Wednesday. What are my chance of getting stuck there?

Little Rock may miss most of it, but you?ll be driving through the worst area as of looks now. I?d put the corridor of the worst area right now to be from Greenwood to Pine Bluff five or take.

Summer certainly wasn't mild here. :) Well above normal, and the norm has been increasing for several decades. The winter so far has been slightly colder than normal, but the winter normal has also been increasing so this winter has been warmer than the norm was 20-30 years ago.

MSU and the W classes cancelled for Tuesday.

[iPat09]

West Point schools closed as well.

Winter storm watch changed to winter weather advisory for golden triangle area.

[Mimi's Babies]

Thanks Vegas Dawg.

Which is "worse".

Changing to advisory makes it sound not as bad

A warning is worse than an advisory. I don't know what it is in Mississippi, but here it's an Advisory for 2 inches or less, and a Warning is for 2 inches in 12 hours or 4 inches in 24 hours.

More northern locations a warning is 4 inches or more, or in the snow belt 6 inches or more. Anything less is an Advisory.
