A surface low will develop in Eastern Texas by later Sunday. This will likely bring a snow belt beginning from Dallas/Fort Worth eastward and through the beginning of next week significant snowfall may be possible across the Deep South.

It is quite likely that if the current pattern holds, cold air advecting intot he air on top of a very cold air mass in the mid-levels will make for heavy snowfall. These numbers are not a normal number seen.

In fact, this is quite opposite of La Nina's pattern and a realistic six to eight inches of snow will be possible through Southern Arkansas, Central MS, Central AL, Central GA, and Western SC and the southern range.

"There is even the possibility of over eight to ten inches in areas with the strongest dynamics, including the Downtown Atlanta areas", said TheWeatherSpace.com Meteorologist Kevin Martin. "This will make or break the record snowfall for the Downtown area, which holds now at 7.01".

On top of the snow, significant ice will be likely on the southern half of MS/AL and GA during this event.
