More Information
...ARCTIC FRONT WILL BRING SNOW THEN BITTER WIND CHILLS TO THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS... .A strong cold front will bring moisture and associated precipitation to the southern Appalachians starting during the early morning hours Tuesday. Temperatures and snow levels will fall rapidly through the morning hours, with accumulating snow continuing through late morning and into the early afternoon. The precipitation will likely fall as all snow at elevations above 3500 feet, but the mountain valleys and the northeast Georgia mountains will likely see a period of rainfall before the precipitation gradually changes to all snow through the morning. The snow will end from the west during the mid to late afternoon. Arctic air and windy conditions will then develop in the wake of the front, with bitter wind chills setting up Tuesday night and continuing, and indeed worsening, through Wednesday night.
