Just got back from my extensive Jeb Walk. Gotta be closing in on an inch at this point, I’d estimate. Or at least close to it.
Maybe so, but its not like these are big cities. Weird for sure.
Not a bad view from my balcony.

I think 3” is pretty easily reached in Cary given current radar. At 1” now. Solid 4-5 hours left

Come to papa!
Over 1" now. Getting obliterated with large, destructive tiny flakes. What a night!
Past an inch in grassy areas

Swansea seems to be the cutoff so far from snow to the sleet/freezing rain mix heading south from Columbia. Everywhere north of Swansea is in the snow.
No grassy blades, probably right at 2 inches at this point 
Really hoping we get in on the bigger flake action

Enjoy! that looks like fun, you guys deserve a good snow. From the radar it looks like the heaviest bands are south, just above the transition zone, likely where there is the best lift.
Seems like it might be picking up more now. Hard to judge visibility at night, though. Tempted to fire up the WRX and do some snow driving but that’s probably a bad idea lol.

Don’t bigger flakes often mean lesser ratios? Or is my understanding mistaken?
that band is gonna be glory!
Looking nice and covered outside!
Yeah it's about the same here. Small flakes but very dense. Hopefully, it will intensity for a while.

Radar really lighting up west of Raleigh
All done here. Right around an inch I’d say. Everything is completely covered.

We are easily at or just pass the 1 inch mark. All blades of grass that had reappered from the melt almost fully covered again. Stuff is not going to waste, freezing outside in the wind. Flakes are as numerous and biggest theyve been all night last 5 mins or so. Moderate snow

So , seems like Charlotte places to the west may overperform while here probably is right around forecast . Easy 4-5 inches here by morning perhaps here.
ok PDU, unless you're a Pirate like me the purple is overdoing it.

Pup was excited for first snow walk in 3 years, absolutely beautiful out.
The GFS is looking pretty good right now, too. Had a wide swath of snow across the Piedmont that seems to be lining up well with reality right now. The RGEM, of course, as well.

Really nice band setting up near asheboro
Any chance Jacksonville sees a final band of snow accumulating to wrap things up tomorrow morning? Its been just sleet and freezing rain here so far.

I’m gay, so I have an excuse . ?
24.1/20 Light snow still falling in Lewisville (west of Winston). It looks like we're approaching 1/2" of accumulation and it might end soon based on radar. Congrats to those to the east seeing bigger flakes and totals. ?
And fun was had by all; happy sledding tomorrow!

Just got back taking dog out. Have no idea how much--maybe almost 1''. But the stuff is just blowing around everywhere. I disturbed the grass with footprints, but with this type of snow, I know I won't see those prints in the morning.
You know some dogs love snow? Well, my beagle/dachsund mix hates it, so I let her back in after a minute. She's a good dog in all other respects, but she's a drama queen when it comes to cold weather. She can't stand it. I walked around outside taking it all in for a few minutes while she stared at me through the door wondering what on earth had gotten into me.
Nice pics ya'll--I'll try to take some in the morning.
