Gretna LA, just south of downtown New Orleans. He said depth between 10-16” in his yard so figure at least 10”.

Coming down decent now
They brined the roads in my part of Orange near I-40 in NE Chapel Hill. Interesting. They even had roads brined in the Triad when I was there earlier.

I’m about 20 miles north of Goose Creek so I think I may be seeing it next. Be interesting to see if it’s sleet or snow
22 degrees and lots of small flakes, but it's coming down pretty good. Everything is white now.

The last hour we had our heaviest snow of the day. I measured 2" at 7pm, an increase of 0.75" in the last hour.
Solid coating on the grass and driveway here. Starting to coat the street in front of my house. It’s been light but steady so far

20/17. Coming down good. We might make those RAP predictions
This is a BIBLICAL Southern Winter Storm (using the SECS, etc. terminology). I thought there was no way the modeling could be right for what they were printing out for the Gulf Coast. It was unthinkable. It was impossible! I can’t believe Florida has likely DOUBLED their all time snowfall record, New Orleans has blown past theirs, and the entire Gulf Coast is getting pummeled by the same winter storm!! I wish I still lived in Tallahassee now!

I don't wanna post the images and be a broken record but holy ---- the fgen is legit parking over CLT rn
Waiting is the hardest part. Spit a few flurries here and there but dry air is eating it up right now

Snowfall rates should steadily increase over the next few hours across the Carolinas as a mid-level warm front surges in from the south.

Don't think we're hitting 1.5" by 8 pm that the RAP is having. Slow start here.

More from shortly after 5...
I do gotta say, while Jan 2014 was definitely fun, it was plain kickbutt cold then and it is now even if it's a few degrees warmer (edit: for me since I'm in a different location). I might try a jeb walk in an hour and a half, but I feel iffy on that.

Sheesh dry air battle commences. Longer you can stay in the snow the better. Wonder how far it eats away. 
Just like everywhere along the NW side of this,
The gradient is exceptional!

Wasn't expecting that much anyway back towards Charlotte. A coating plus or minus was about all I was thinking.

Fyi to my east. Over 2 hours in, still going as strong.

Flurries are done here, clouds breaking up rapidly. Cut off line must have been on a line from Charlotte to SE Guilford and then east from there
Same but it will try to continue to push East.. Raleigh should stay 1-2. Coastal regions win big!
What will be a nice band taking shape from Williamston back towards Goldsboro.

Interesting first two hours here in TLH.
Temp dropped to 30.5 as precip commenced as sleet, then a sn/ip mix, then briefly all snow.
It then went back to sleet and is now most zr with a bit of sleet mixed in.
Also, temps have risen a full degree to 31.6, I assume a product of WAA.
The RAP is undeterred, handing out 8 inches (Kuchera) while the HRRR thinks it sniffs out a sleet storm through midnight.
Anyway, ready for temps to crash a bit and a snow changeover to happen as SPC is predicting in its mesoscale.

The mid-level cold front is pressing in from the west over the piedmont. Eventually subsidence drying will take over and shut the snow off, but you should see some good rates for a little while. It's areas further to the east where these rates are likely to be even greater later tonight as we squeeze more frontogenesis out of the initial mid-level warm front that comes in from the south then the subsequent mid-level cold front from the west.

Should be a interesting night might catch a break in our favor for once.
