I think that's just KATL. I saw a photo of someone in Virginia Highlands have around 4.3 inches when they measured with a ruler. I don't know why they use the airport for official measurements.

That’s the airport reporting station south of town, too, right? So I’d assume downtown got a bit more.

According to WSB-TV, Downtown Atlanta measured 3.5 inches of snow. That’s about what I got as well, I don’t live too far from the downtown area.

A little bit of melting taking place today but still solid white in most places. Main roads are in solid shape but back roads still a bit messy.

Temps here have not hit freezing yet and all the white is pure ice here. It's going to take a bit for this to melt. Roads are slowly drying and melting but trees remain iced.

Yep even down here in Paulding it just now hit 33 imby. Out trees are still coated. The teens tonight are going to suck bigly.

31-34 seems pretty common across north ga atm

I somehow didn't see that post. I was about to say I was really surprised the far north didn't do better.

36 here. It's been mostly sunny here and all the ice on the trees is gone as well as most of the snow oustide of shady spots. It sucks being in the center of downslope hell.

Haven’t lost a whole lot of snow cover - I’m sure the ground being frozen is helping that.

The sun this morning killed it here in the places that were sun facing. It’s since become cloudy and melting has subsided dramatically. You must’ve got a decent bit more than here, though (you probably got IP when we were ZR).

we ended up with just a bit more than 2” of snow and sleet combined
 
Still a winter wonderland here with 2 inches or so in most spots. Slush still on roads, and ice and snow are still on the trees. Temps have held steady at barely above freezing for a few hours. I expect some of the stuff in the sheltered spots might last until Monday or Tuesday. The snowmen will last a while anyway!

I think schools will remain closed on Monday in many areas.

Are there any official snow total maps coming out of middle Tennessee? About 4.5-5" here in the Bluff.

Ended up with 3 inches exactly in White House. I think 3-5 with a few 6 inch totals were about what most people got in the area. This was one of the rare storms where places south of me got more snow. That warm nose nudged the temps above freezing for about 3 hours and was the difference in a big dog 6 plus inches. Snow fell all day but only accumulated a few hours in the morning and early evening.

These are some of the last pictures I took before we transitioned over to sleet/freezing rain. This was around 8:20-ish yesterday morning.

Roads are going to be a mess starting about now in N GA. Only hit 33-34 today. Already back down to 31 and this is still what things look like.

The ICON was the only model which for several of its last runs showed the light snowfall in SE Ga.

I dunno if I'd say it called anything here, as while it was showing snow, it had warmer temps, and while I don't know for sure, I think the cutoff on snow falling was probably northern Burke County, GA, on my end.

Think the RGEM handled the best, it's just that it wasn't quite correct on the p-type on the northern part. It showed the idea of a heavier band of wintry precip for multiple runs and the idea it might be cold enough for freezing rain/sleet as deep as near Charleston, SC.

Alright, one final set of pictures for me:



Based off the power outage maps, it did turn out that we were probably about 30-40 miles to the south of a more impactful freezing rain event, I "think." (but also think we were likely that amount away from seeing 3" of snow and not having freezing rain zap a lot of what fell)
