The wider storm

A anomolous winter weather event including sleet, freezing rain and snow flurries occurred on Jan 29th when an area of low pressure deepened offshore of the Fl/Ga Altantic coast and cold and moist air funnelled southward on the west side of the low over southeast Georgia and northeast Florida. An upper level disturbance passed over the shallow cold and moist airmass, with triggered rain mixed with a wintry mix at times during the day on the 29th through the pre-dawn hours of the 30th. Icing on bridges occurred, and many schools across the area closed on the 29th and on the 30th due to the potential for ice freezing on bridges.
