  1. Agreed. Just feels good to see snow on the ground. Been Brutal.
  2. I disagree. Seems to have played out almost exactly as forecast. Lotta 2-3 in reports in the Triangle and 2in reports in Triad. Looks like snow fell all the way into far SE parts of the state. My farm in Louisburg has over 3in on the ground this morning after melting so I bet they had close to 4 in. Looks like a large area of 3-4 in reports East of here, which was right in line with 2-4 in forecast. I saw some 5 in reports sprinkled in. Only thing that didn't happen was a heavy band with 6-8 in lollipops, which I fully expected somewhere east of here, but overall it was well-forecast. Places that didn't do as well as forecast look like SE VA and extreme NE NC. CLT was never forecast to get much and same story with the upstate. I can tell you this, if the BL was a couple degrees cooler, this would have been a widespread 4-6 in storm for much of NC. We hit 2.5" and stayed there for 4 hours of steady snow once the heaviest rates moved out. It was just compensating for melting. We finished with around 2.75" depending on where you measure.
  3. Slippery streets this morning in the triangle. 27 and BEAUTIFUL out. I love overnight snows and waking up as the sun first hits it in the trees. Large area of NC has snow cover which is pretty awesome considering where we were a week ago!
  4. Little over 2.5” here. Oh what could’ve been with better BL temps. Oh well, salvaged the season, got to watch it snow for 8 hours and had a great time tracking it! It’s absolutely beautiful out. Still snowing atm but not going to amount to anything more. Congrats to all who scored today!
  5. That's what I have (not 2 but 1-1.5"), depending on where you measure. Moderate snow 32/32. Ice has formed on what had been water on my truck's windshield. We are below freezing
  6. I'm at 32. I doubt that's accurate. Roads covered now. IDK where the other North Hills report came from but we're much more than that...
  7. It is coming down in Raleigh! Fiance is putting snow clothes on. About to go on a walk before it gets dark! Starting to stick to paved surfaces
  8. If we keep these rates in Raleigh, we bust in a good way
  9. 32 and everything but roads is covering up nicely! Absolutely beautiful out. Just went out back with the dog. Felt like a 8 year old kid
  10. I'm pretty sure that's the same as it was. I can't wait for stuff to start whitening up. It's coming down atm. Only issue we have now are BL temps and, dare I say it, ground temps
  11. I'll be that guy: wait till it gets closer to sunset. It does matter. it's like forbidden to say that on here but I will. I think we'll get enough flakes for 4-6 in but I'd expect half that accumulates. Pretty right now though!
  12. I do not see a logical reason why they would lower the "high" totals of 1-3" at this point. It's all snow, we have hours of snow ahead of us, rates should stay good through 9-10, and sunset is approaching. If anything I'd say 2-3 in sounds more correct for the immediate Raleigh area. I type this as it is snowing at a good clip at my window before 4, when they had the changeover this AM's forecast. I think it had to mean the NW. That's it for my rant. Snowing good atm. Temp is an issue for accumulations but it is dropping like a rock.
  13. Temp Crashing with the onset of snow. Down to 34. 44 was the high. Gotta love good mid and upper levels and a good push of dry air before
  14. Where in Raleigh? I'm snow in North Hills area
  15. Wow, switched to all snow quick in North Hills at the house. Moderate snow now still 38
  16. Rain/Snow mix at the house in North Hills. Temp down to 38. Long way to go but happy to see flakes already.
  17. All rain in Garner. About to head home to take my last meetings from the house before Raleigh panics and everyone hits the road at once.
  18. I agree on the DP front. Just ready to see appreciable precip blossoming as the coastal takes over and we start to see some moisture transport. At work in Garner I can confirm that light rain has started. No flurries or sleet pellets here. Not sure the temp
  19. DP continues to fall at RDU, down to 25. Precip is sure having a tough time advancing N and to the west. Not sure if this is a bad omen for less moisture or a delayed arrival...
  20. I'm not sure where you're going to manufacture crashing surface temps down there but good luck! Pays to be optimistic
