All our rulers have apparently been turned into ninja swords or reinforcing pieces to box forts lol. 

 

Guesstimate of 8 inches in Durham NC by the Southpoint Mall.  Freezing rain now - pinging off the house non stop.  Few loud sounding gusts of wind rolling in.

Having looked more carefully at a map (just moved recently), I guess I'm closer to SE Durham than NE Durham as I posted before, but about five miles north of Southpoint.

It's still snowing here. I'd guess we're at 7-8"? I keep expecting it to change over, but still flakes for the moment. 

30.9F according to my hobby-grade weather station.

I have 5 inches of snow/sleet here in ne Randolph county. I am right on the line inbetween the good stuff toward Greensboro and the big 0  25 miles below me.  Looked better last night the NWS had me in the 8-10 band but could be worse for sure.  I feel bad for the upstate SC, Se Charlotte and Moore county folks were also supposed to get a lot more and got warmed nosed worse than me.

 Praying the zr stays away.  Heavy pingers now.

Well the bad news is I missed out on most of the heavy snow and fun in my location.  I probably got around three inches before it all turned to sleet around 5:00 AM.  It is raining and the wind is picking up now.  The temperature is around 33 degrees.

The good news is it looks like I'm going to miss out on the heavy ice accrual.  The Duke Energy map has quite a few power outages on a line from Raleigh north.  South of that line things are pretty much status quo.  I feel for those who have lost power, especially in the Charlotte area and those to the north of me.

Just woke up here in Lesslie in southeastern York County. Been cold rain most of the night. Some sleet has apparently mixed in but nothing has accumulated. The Airport in the north of the county is apparently still at freezing but I think we're above here.

I guess I got my wish. If it couldn't be snow it better have been all cold rain.
