prolly 3 inches here.  About the average of what the models were looking at, so they nailed it in my area.  Would have loved to have gotten in that 5 inch range...but starting out as rain and then that lull mid day where moisture was making it to mecklenburg and then disappearing really hurt my totals

Measured values were on a dark colored picnic table. Totals are 7"-8" in the grass. It's still snowing lightly, pretty incredible event considering the duration.

Got around 6 inches here in NW Wake. Just took a walk w/ my fiancé to the gas station and it's blowing all over and still coming down nicely. Thinking we may make 6.5 or 7 by the time it ends later this evening. All in all, nothing beats a bowling ball cutoff low in the south. It's generally always a sure bet for a solid storm.

Still pouring the snow. Man if we could just get another couple hours out of this band....I know I'm being greedy. 

LOL - if the snow shield hadn't locked down at the Wake/JoCo line for 4 hours, and if the first 90 minutes wasn't rain... ;)
