1.5", maybe another half inch can accumulate before the snow stops.
I measured 1.5 inches

1.5” here in N High Point. Looking at radar I think we probably don’t get to 2 but it’s beautiful out there and a more than I expected.

Still sleeting pretty good out there and from what I can tell, it's trying to stick to everything.
Kinda hard to not feel a little robbed though.
Guessing this stuff is going to be frozen tomorrow morning (Low 26).

Thinking 3” is our ceiling here.

Pushing 1.5" in Cary when I took this and rates are picking up with that band moving in. Probably over 1.5" by now.
Streamers in the old Cree equipped security light, 3000 lumens in 2008 was big time for LED. A work horse…

Just a question of how long we can keep it up, flipped here in the last 5 mins, flake size will probably shrink on down but rates are really high, maybe .5-.75" a hr is doable for awhile but how long....figure we might have 4-5 hrs left but it almost always ends faster than we or the models think.

Just absolutely pouring here.

Back edge approaching.... Got an inch just south of W-S.
Starting to get close to covering up most of the tops of the grass blades. That’s the mark of a good storm to me. Good rates continue. Will take another walk shortly.

I think I’m pushing 2” here rn
I think it’s safe to say this has overperormed on the W/NW side? As we often see with these setups. I don’t think there were many models that had places like Winston-Salem racking up an inch, even the bullish ones. Maybe today’s GFS did.
Move over old ECMWF, we have crowned a new king
2inches with the death band still to come 
That area west of Raleigh has increased in coverage even expanded north a touch. I might just get clipped by the mega band, let's go!
Holy crap; it’s dumping now!!
Will be out of here by 4am, tops, radar is encouraging for some rates approaching 1"hr and I think 3 maybe 4 is the upper end for us. NW Pitt & Edgecombe up towards the Albemarle Sound will max, status quo, maybe just a little east of the classic axis.
Lol bruh, still some radar left to,
Gonna surpass 3.25” at this rate. At 2.75”

This is the HRRR snow depth change on the newest run on going.....this does give me a bit of hope and there certainly looks like some kind of band building in just SE of Wake....this is probably absolute best case but interesting....
I hear you measuring in the grass. That's what I'm talking about! I left that one off my list from earlier today too.

Palm trees in Myrtle look a little icy.
Congrats @North/South Carolina on your snow!!
Looks like everyone from just west of Charlotte to Greensboro and points East are going to see snow. Now it’s time for west and middle tenn and the western parts of the mid and upper south to score one. No doubt the pattern looks good for North Carolina right now.Congrats to all getting a good snow and for parts of South Carolina in the Deep South for scoring their second good snow!
Has your chicken taken cover yet, that is the big question
Haha I’m a weenie I do weenie things, but in all seriousness the NWS counts 3 averaged out measurements in the grass
Walking to out front of my complex to try to get the death band in the car dealership lights!

About an inch here, but hard to tell due to the wind. Rates picking up and should snow until almost sunrise according to the HRRR, which says I get 4 inches. I bet it adds up to less than that bc of how small the flakes are, but still definitely the best snow since 2018. Roads are completely covered almost as much as grass and decks despite the county salting them.

You want a new pic?
Been a long time since we’ve seen a radar like this. Congrats to the Columbia and Raleigh posters. Needed to get this one out of the way. It can still snow.
Only if it shows 2" on it's back
