Pouring snow again. My death band has arrived
Charge up now. Don’t let weak radar returns fool you. Freezing drizzle matters as does high wind.
Come on just need it to keep heading north! This is agonizing. Essentially light flurries for the last hour.
Wow, very different there compared to Durham. Much more white here, no ZR yet! It’s just pingermaggedon!
On another more, looks like Nashville is busting low on snow? Unfortunate!

Despite ripping fatties, roads still not snow-covered in Gresham area.
Snow is picking up again, it’s the heaviest I’ve seen so far.
Yeah it just got a lot darker outside and is starting to pick up again, but the flakes are still on the smaller side. You're about 15 miles southwest of me, so hopefully more to come.
Still 32.4/31.9

If there is ZR in CLT, we're getting to the point where it's warm enough to where it can't accrue very efficiently. Temps getting close to freezing.
Ice really building up .. I think we’re fine still but I guess we got another hour or so maybe if this?
Some photos from last hour. I think we’ve got about 1” of sleet here with maybe a little snow underneath, though I didn’t measure so I’m not really sure.
GOOSE FEATHERS! Heaviest snow of the event
Can we get a report from the north Georgia mountains? Preferably over near toccoa and northward
32 2 melting underway. Yippi ki yay Mr Falcon

Sleetfest continues here ten miles north of Greensboro. Everything should wrap up here around 6:00 PM EST. Currently 20.3/18.1. RAH’s point forecast calls for freezing rain, but I’ve been all sleet thankfully.
I brought my elderly parents from their house to ours in case they lost power. My back might not be able to hold out much longer getting him up out of his chair.

Above freezing BL + peak sun angle near noon is going to make that tough without sustained heavy rates.

All cold rain here in northeast bham, bummed out a bit, hopefully Fridays event will do better.
The wind has been blowing all of the snow from the roof onto my patio, and is creating big snow mounds. I measured 2 inches in the grass.

Was about to post that the snow had all but stopped here for the past hour, just a few flurries and small flakes. It's started coming down again with good-sized flakes in the last two minutes. Still sitting at 31 degrees.

Yeah, I haven’t even seen any freezing rain here all the way 50 miles east of you in Durham yet, though I suspect it’ll changeover soon. You should be good even longer.Sleetfest continues here ten miles north of Greensboro. Everything should wrap up here around 6:00 PM EST. Currently 20.5/18.1.

There's been a couple bursts of moderate snow that lasted briefly, but otherwise its been very light snow. No accumulation at all here near Carrollton.
snowfall vs snowstick = 2 completely different worlds here lol. easily pushing 1.5" of snowfall based on precip since we changed over, but only an 1/8" of slush to show for it. daytime event with temps just above freezing. very pretty watching it fall but also depressing watching it melt lol

Yeah, it’s warming up, almost 40 here at my location. Thinking about driving up to Monto Sano or green mt to see snow before it melts.

Up near Sugar changed to mostly sleet as expected but seeing more flakes mixing back in. Absolutely ripping under this
The snow is finally starting to accumulate! Getting close to a dusting. I recorded this around the time the heavy snow first started.
EDIT: I recorded video on my iPhone but it’s too big to attach so I might upload it to YouTube and post the video link.

Was really touch and go if the temp was below 32.. Gainesville seemed worse 20mins ago the drive was slippery compared to this am

About an 1" of snow/sleet here. Just a wee bit of freezing rain so far.
Temp is 30.2 and slowly creeping up

Heaviest snow i've seen all day in Carroll County.
Finally made it to 32/29 in Jasper… was sitting around 35/33 much of morning. Maybe we will see some accumulation here.

Looks like a deformation band setting up on the AL / GA border. Things may be about to get revved up for ATL!

We lost our power about 6:30am due to a tree down on a power line just outside our neighborhood. It was definitely very windy here, I saw we had a NWS verified 45mph wind gust nearby. We finally got power back about 45 minutes ago, thankfully. It’s been snowing pretty heavily, off and on, all morning, though nothing is sticking much. Looks pretty icy/slushy on the driveway. We aren’t going anywhere today, for sure!

Still 31 here
