About 2 inches, Raleigh off Wake Forest Rd @ Six Forks Rd. Large fat flakes coming down at a moderate rate

Still all snow in Raleigh off Wake Forest Rd @ Six Forks Rd. Everything is white, road is covered. Probably 1.5"ish. Accumulating quickly!

girlfriend's coworkers somewhere in Raleigh have lost power, apparently. We are in midtown Raleigh right behind Duke Raleigh and still have power. A few gusty gusts here and there but nothing significant so far. Although there is lots of branches all over the yard

So is the fact that it's even going to hit NC based on it's location a few days ago, so....

Yeah no doubt, I'm just really worried since the vacation is already paid for and everything. I'm hoping our neighborhood won't be completely flooded or trees blocking exits or anything...not sure if it will get that bad of course, but I guess the potential is there and this is so super stressful. The timing for events going on in my personal life is almost as bad as it gets. Ugh.

So we are going to need to leave for a pre-planned Disney vacation on the 19th or 20th at the latest. Do you think roads will be passable even if we have to take hours worth of detours? Obviously it's impossible to say what roads might be out and where, but generally speaking...we are behind Duke Raleigh hospital in Raleigh. Would have planned on 440-40-95. I know during Matthew I95 got flooded and closed for awhile (don't remember how long). I have only lived in this neighborhood for 3 months, so I don't know how it behaves in flood situations. There are a LOT of trees in the neighborhood, though. This is a very important trip, for 6 months I have been planning on proposing to my girlfriend and surprising her with her parents flying in from Puerto Rico.

guess that depends on how far youre talkin. r/s line is right se of clayton, and mby to dt Clayton is 25 miles. lemme just stop bitchin cause indeed its getting better and apparently ruffling feathers of those e of me

Meh. I know we have some snow imby so i shouldnt be complaining, but it can be irritating when 2 miles in every direction there's double the amount and sub30 temps. ILM is not really ever a snow magnet though, so meh again. You'd be disappointed too.

i knew temps would be a problem. it was 35 for hours in central wake, finally down to 33 or 34...big fat flakes, sticking on cars and grass, starting to finally stick a little on parking lots idk about the roads. I have done 1 winter each in south Durham, central Carrboro, west Raleigh, Sanford and midtown Raleigh. So far midtown Raleigh is the worst. Jan 6-7 the snow hole was over mby for hours and today its above freezing for hours. smh. Lease ends in June. Time to relocate to Morrisville or something! Temps were no issue when i was at work in RTP/morrisville. Snow hole wasnt there either. I'm trying not to complain too much cause there is about 1.5", but still.

Wow these schools look gorgeous.

So was I

Here I am in the backyard a few days ago after a few drinks and with a big ol' bonfire goin'. Excuse the toplessness it was hot next to the fire and with drinky haha.

Is the Mercy Hospital going up in the same place as St John's?
