Knightdale is a whole different animal than western wake where I am.  Knightdale will probably see more Frz Rain accumulation on elevated surfaces and trees and not much ice on the road.  If you switch or stay as snow/sleet, then you will get accumulation on the roads.

 

My area of wake should see more sleet accumulation on the roads and less of the frz rain accumulation on elevated surfaces.  But it doesn't take much freezing rain to cause issues.

Lovely. K'dale will also have more power outages. We've had zero snow.

Been a mix of IP and ZR for a few hours here in south Raleigh. Just went out to check on the ice accretion thus far (see below). Several hours of ZR+ likely ahead as well.

Very much a similar story here. Up to 30f. Looks like a little less than a quarter inch accrual. No way we don't lose power looking at the radar, unless we can warm another 2-3 degrees.

Almost looks like a squall line coming through north central Georgia. Anybody have obs underneath it? I hoping that will hold together through the upstate. It's looking really impressive at the moment.

 

That sounds like that line of convection - lightning included - due into Gvl/Spg around 4:00 or so
