So glad to see you cashed in after all the time and effort you put in with model analysis and pbp this week.  I enjoyed your videos of the wind-blown snow.  Reminded me of the '79 President's Day weekend snowstorm.

Mostly freezing rain with a coating of snow at my location in SE Charlotte.

Great photos everyone!  

Thanks Eric.  We got lucky up this way.  I thought S Charlotte would at least get a good bit of sleet....I missed down there.

The first storm I 'think' I remember as a kid was that Feb '79 storm.  I remember running tunnels thru the snow during a big one which would have been in that timeframe.

You have a real good shot at 0 degrees.

Ended up at -3.  Backyard thermometer read -6, matching the lowest I've seen in 8 years on that thermometer.   I believe that was too cold as several neighbors had -3.

 

11 degrees on the backyard thermometer now.  We will see how low we get tonight.

This one reminded me of the Jan 1987 storm in terms of the tight gradient across Charlotte and Raleigh

I cut my teeth on 87 and 88 as I was 8 and 9 those years. I have been searching for those winters ever since!

Got up to 30 after a low of 13 today. Little snow melt.
