Wider weather episode

Snow fell across portions of the region overnight January 15th into the 16th. The bulk of the snow accumulated across central and eastern Mississippi, though there was a rather sharp cut-off between locations that saw accumulating snow and locations that saw nothing. A band of snow developed across east central Rankin and Madison counties, and produced the largest snow fall of around 8 to 9 inches. The low pressure system then progressed east during the morning hours of the 16th resulting in accumulating snowfall of 3 to 5 inches across portions of eastern Mississippi.
