Which way is it moving? All snow here with big flakes. Best of the day so far.

The Rain-Snow line looks to be somewhere along a line from Fort Bragg-Lillington to Clayton atm, absolutely dumping here in Raleigh...

The radar looks like it should be snowing heavily in SE Wake, but it's not. It's snowing heavily in Raleigh and Cary, where the radar presentation is similar or worse.

I wouldn't sweat it. Based on radar, you have many hours of precip still yet to come. Congrats!

Probably a lot of bright banding across our area

Flurrying here now, fear the pivot!
What the lunchtime GFS have to say!
 
KATL official: 2.3" and something not seen too often, the heaviest of the official reports I saw from the immediate ATL area. Way to go airport! Something else interesting is that this 2.3" is the exact same total they got from the early Dec. storm! So, now 4.6" season to date, which is 230% of the total seasonal normal already.

The 2.3" at KATL resulted from 0.15" liquid equivalent. So, about 15:1 ratio of snow to liquid.

Other official totals: 1.3" Athens, 1.0" Macon, Columbus 1.5"

The 1.3" at Athens resulted from 0.08" liquid or 16:1. The 1.0" at Macon was from only 0.05" liquid or 20:1!

For ATL area, I busted quite a bit too low with my tops being 1".

The one big thing the models missed until some short range at last second was NW NC. Mt Airy has 5 on the ground per Big Frosty. Still snowing in Boone. Every model I saw had MT Airy getting maybe a dusting.

Here it's 5 and half / still coming down good. Have noticed bigger flakes mixing in for short intervals over past half hour. If we snow till 6pm , no doubt we'll end up 8+

Where are you located?
 
Can someone kindly explain the radar returns in W NC. Is that wrap around / Pivot? Thanks in advance.
 
32F line is right on the Wake County line as of 1pm. The 12km NAM had this and by 2pm theoretically we should start seeing better ratios.
