It's funny when 47 looks warm, which is still below our coldest average high of the year, LOL.

I'm much happier this morning than I was yesterday morning. That dry slot was a terrible thing to endure if you're a snow lover. Just because of that, I didn't like this storm. I ended up fine with the snow, but the storm tracking the last few days sucked, and again the dry slot was unbelievable. Usually I would rank a storm like this a B+ or A-. But it barely gets a C because of the headaches.

I totally agree. I was happy watching the snow last night but extremely frustrating day overall. I literally rode that line all day. Then closed in all around me. Kylog and I had areas getting pounded at one time just to our north, south, east and west. IMG_9424.jpegIMG_9445.jpeg
 
Not sure how we are going to make 9 tonight. RDU was 24 at midnight!

My parents live in Holden - this is most definitely real, they measured 15 inches in their neighborhood. They sat under this band for hours last night.

1- 2 degrees at 5:20 when I left this a.m.. Car themometer pinged between 1-3 all the way up to Gboro. Was 9 when I got out of car.

Several rural areas are gonna hit 0 by sunrise, perhaps dipping negative. Nice cold snowy winter a.m. under the Full moon.
 
Is the next 5-6 days in NC / winters last stand? Can never really say. All I see after we get through this weekend is run of the mill wx with temps in the 50's, progressing next week. If we don't get a PV displacement. I think we just end up riding it on out seasonal and into spring. I usually wait till mid Feb, look hard for pattern recognition the last 2 weeks of Feb, then throw the towel in at that point.

If there's anyone in or close in proximity to Salisbury.... How are the roads?

I'm about 35 miles north of Salisbury on the west side of Winston. I can't speak to the roads there; but here all the main roads here are just fine. Most of the side roads are fine. In some neighborhoods with steeper streets, you still have some icy patches that can be dangerous. With the freeze/thaw, travel in the afternoon is several orders of magnitude better than early morning or after dark. Our roads were very icy early this morning after the melt refroze overnight. They were fine this afternoon.

Take that for what it's worth. I wanted to give you some idea of what it's like up here now. That could change in a few days for the better. On my own, tomorrow I wouldn't hesitate to travel to Salisbury in the day. Your mileage may vary depending on your destination.
