isolated sleet/snow showers in central AL on radar

[Opal storm]

I'm looking at the intellicast radar and sleet and snow is popping up over central AL.Is there any confirmed reports of falling winter precip or is this not reaching the ground?

Dalton Georgia checking in at Fair and 36, carrying a 20% chance of snow. I am guessing virga with a spit here and there of snow.

wow is right! Snow is rare in that area in the heart of winter...let alone November. This could be a sign that the southern U.S. could see an exciting winter this year. I just hope Houston gets some snow this season.
