Very light snow in Monroe Ga atm...
Snow has slowed, dusting. 27/16
I’m out and about near Southpoint in Durham now and flurries have started!

That bodes well for me being in the southern Upstate. Currently 33 here. Makes me think I will get a minimum of a dusting if not up to 1 inch as advertised in our Advisory.
Legit light snow here. Fortunately not a flake from last night melted today so already ground was covered, I'll be happy with 1" and ecstatic with 2", just enough to cover the grass. Special shout out to @SD @Rain Cold , hope you guys get clobbered, in a good way!!

First flakes falling on top of the old town dump in Lillington right at 5 p.m. Not change-over from sleet.
27.0/24.7, very light IP, may take a couple hours to mix it out. ?
Reinforcements are coming from the SW
Now or never

Latest RAP doesn't have rates ramping up in Raleigh until 8pm or so, at which point it's 0.5"-0.8" per hour through 1-2am.
Seeing flurries here in Concord…
We got a good coating on elevated surfaces. Not as much runoff now as we had earlier today, but its still melting at immediate ground level for now.
Getting some snow now.
Oh come on.
Flurries here now, despite the lack of returns over me!

Light Snow that is slowing increasing in both flake size and "intensity" here in Between GA (Walton County)
1. From my vantage point because the low level flow is coming directly from there on a steady NNE flow, I had said that the afternoon was a crucial period to see whether or not E SC temperatures would resume their slow drop this afternoon after a several hour long pause this morning. They ended up doing that:
Noon-4 PM change:
Myrtle Beach -1
Moncks Corner -2
Georgetown -2
CHS -3
Walterboro -2
Beaufort -1
SAV -3
Hunter -2
Ft Pulaski -2
2. My analysis of mesoscale models for 4 PM vs actuals for these locations showed the 18z NAM and 12Z RGEM to both be on average 3-4 F too warm and for the 20Z HRRR to be only about 1 F too warm.
Therefore, the NAM and RGEM are more than likely going to end up being several degrees too warm for at least the early part of tonight for much of the CHS-SAV corridor. But the HRRR likely will be closer, perhaps only 1-2 F too warm in at least a good portion of the area.
3. Based I assume on this and other info, CHS at 3:30 PM extended the winter wx advisory down to here for near 1/10" of ice accumulation. That would be the first wintry precip. here in 4 years. For now at 5 PM, Hunter/KSAV are safely above 32 at 38/37. However, upstream from here Walterboro has just dropped 2 the last hour to 32 and KCHS has been at 33 for the last 2 hourlies.
@Stormsfury and @Sctvman and others in the CHS-SAV corridor might find this info interesting.

This pretty much says it all about winter life in the ATL.

Snow picking up in eastern Union County!

We must practically be neighbors.
Clouds are trying to thicken, but no precipitation yet.
Just flurries right now
This kind of concerns me based on the precip training I'm seeing right now.

Strange it's cold enough to snow here, but not cold enough in Atlanta.

Now I’m seriously concerned about ice accrual in our coastal areas along the Wilmington and New bern corridor. The ice totals could definitely bust on the higher end.
Snow has lightened up here but it has accumulated efficiently and we have a dusting.
Huffman says 8pm should see rates pick back up for triangle
