Last night they had some watches for eastern Arky but had no idea this was coming. This could get ugly.
the weather advisory on my iphone kept saying 1-2 inches possible. when i woke up it was the typical, "well lets see what going on outside" quickly followed by a "holy ****! what the hell happened."<div>

Actually this was in advance on an incoming storm system that the energy from two weather systems are going to merge and kick the Mid Atlantics *** again with near 15-20 inches more of snow..And yes I'm a meteorology major..The big storm will not be this one but the one coming later this week on Friday..A Gulf low and everything sets up perfectly like the December 1997 snow and earlier yesterday and this morning the computer models were forecasting 10 inches in Jackson and 6-7 in Starkville..They have backed off but however with El Nino extremely negative, extreme blocking in the north Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the neg. El nino will push the Pacific moisture in the Gulf and a surface low pressure will form..The track is critical though if it moves too far to the south, Starkville couldreceivejust maybe 1 inch..If the models were correct being really saturated earlier and the surface low is hugging the coast or still very close to the coast, then it could be a huge snow storm..I'm thinking the runs are consistent and this could be a big snow..I'm thinking between 3-6 inches down near Jackson and 1-3 near Starkville but that could increase or decrease according to the low..Right now it looks like both areas get snow but with the models jumping all over the place, its hard to narrow down a snow amount...
The total area in the SE that will get at least an inch is going to be incredible. This is the first wide-ranging snow storm in a long time. It will be interesting to see how it affect the attendance at Thursday's game, with moisture moving in that evening. 2+ inches in Starkville seems very likely, but someone is going to get absolutely creamed by this one in the deeper south.
This is the real deal folks.

Yeah I was in shock of what I saw this morning when I looked out the window. The "big snows" that we usually get come when they don't forecast it.
