Yeah.  Sleet tried to mix in for a few minutes but back to all snow. CC radar shows sleet line shifted back south of I-40 for now. And that “10 miles north” rule is still in effect hahaa

I'm just south of I-40 in SW Winston and our sleet seems to be changing back to snow. Big flakes.

Any ground truth out of that bright band in Greensboro? Is it snow or sleet?

According to WFMY's Tim Buckley, it's the sleet line: https://twitter.com/TimBuckleyWX/status/1071829495575965696

Measured again recently in SW Winston-Salem, close to 13". Now mostly sleet, with flakes mixing in in greater or lesser amounts from time to time.

Just measured in SW Winston-Salem. Around 12.5" and still snowing, although it seems to be mixed with some sleet.

I'm hearing ice hit my window when the wind blows.

Me too. Still plenty of flakes though.

Very breezy now in SW Winston-Salem. Small to medium flakes with moderate to sometimes heavy snow.

Still snowing in SW Winston-Salem. Mostly small flakes now, ~11", and very breezy. Amazing storm for this area!

Heavy snow in SW Winston-Salem. Measured about 7.5" an hour ago. I'm sure we're well on our way to 9" at this point.

Light snow has started in SW Winston-Salem.

1.38" so far in southwest Winston-Salem since Thursday afternoon.

Fairly busy today. How is the rain shield developing over NC?

Nervous about the flooding potential for those downstream..,

Looks pretty impressive.

The 18z NAM continues to cut these rainfall totals in NW NC,3''-5'' across there on this run with a big cutoff just SE of CLT where 9'' plus are.Might be a bit light but we'll see.

Carry on.

Do the lower totals appear to be from speed, storm track, both, something else?

GFS cut back on the totals for people in the W.Piedmont/foothills on this last run.The NAM looks similar and is a bit less.

It brings heavy rain in around hour 38 and lasts to about hour 56,with lighter rain on either end for a bit so it pours for at least 18 hours.

Solid 4''-8'' looks ok right now with isolated 10'' lollipops possible.

Does this include the Triad region?

Moderate snow here in SW Winston-Salem. Dusting on grass and decent accumulation on elevated surfaces. My street is wet.
