It's 2-2.5" on elevated surface and 3" on grassy areas. Tho I am a bit more north latitude wise than you are in Lizard Lick.
Wow, east was the place to be with this one. I don’t think I have more than 0.5”, maybe 0.75” at best. Still snowing lightly, but it might be melting faster than it’s accumulating. All in all, pretty disappointing considering official forecasts called for more (I guess we at least got something rather than nothing like earlier this month), hope we can get a legit warning criteria winter storm here this year.
Anyways, going to catch a couple more hours of shut eye now before work...light snow just isn’t worth it, LOL. Good night, all! Hopefully, you all down east can roll in some more inches!!!

Our pines are completely coated. Cars covered in 2-3" of slushy snow. Trying to get pics.

Yeah, I'm under that band. My stupid phone decided to stop uploading pics so I'm unloading from my DSLR.

Woke up to white ground, roof tops. Looks dusted up pretty good.
I got a little more than 1.5". And that's packed down as well.
Despite never getting below freezing we’ve got every bit of 2” on the ground.

Looks to be about 1-1.5" here in southeast Durham.

2 inches in Southern Wake. Not bad. Not bad at all.

I wonder how much would have stuck if it had fallen in the middle of the day ?
Solid 4" paste job, trees limbs are sagging that's for sure

Another one of those rare cases where it pays to be East of 85. Makes twice this year. ?
Only on grass and elevated surfaces, and even then not fully covering the grass.

Dang, raleigh got the goods! Nothing like that here. Roads a little slushy but not covered.

It was nice to see snow last night, but nothing really stuck in south Chapel Hill. Ground is mostly uncovered, just some small accumulation on my car this AM.

Just never look at the wxbell 10:1 HRRR when HRRRv4 has built in variable snow SLR from 5:1 up to 17:1, and doesn’t translate mixed/sleet to snow. Not that you did, but I think the HRRR product in particular from wxbell got hopes up...
So I went outside and I think I did get 2" or maybe a little more:

Roads don't look bad at all.
Several measurements of 5"

Roads are clear in East Durham. One last round of flurries moving through. Around an inch still on the ground.

I have to laugh. About the only place the GFS got right was RR.
So what was the cutoff for the naked snow dive?
6" and trust me I was sweating bullets haha

I wonder how much snow Gatlinburg got. I think accu was there chasing.

Curious to see what everyone’s final max snow accumulations were for this storm. Looks like it overperformed a little in the north-central coastal plain, busted low in/around the Triad

Heavy dusting here. Maybe 1/3" Hard to tell if it was a bit more since I wasn't awake while it was accumulating.
