Only thing stopping this from being a somewhat significant event for you is lack of pre-frontal precip... but still tbd on that I think. hrrr has a good bit.

What a storm. The blizzard warning now touches the Oklahoma border
I'm not sure if we get enough lift to really generate enough precipitation to overcome the exceptionally dry 900-sfc layer tomorrow afternoon but in this area there's a window where we could snow early then sleet before the overall profile gets too warm for anything wintry

Just posted my thoughts on the setup for Roanoke on twitter. Thinking 1-3 inches of snow and sleet with .25 inches of freezing rain.
.25 might give you some problems Luke

Indeed it would, hoping it won't happen but I believe the meteorology points to that.

Blizzard warning for the entire metro now
I got a feeling people are gonna talk about this storm after we're dead

Seems like the drier more north solutions May be winning out. Still, your idea seems like a good possibility right now.

Take plenty of pictures!!
I just went through Kansas City a month ago on my way to Oregon. I decided to take the Pony Express road. Beautiful part of the country. Most people don't like Kansas but I enjoyed it. I really like how the small towns had cobblestone streets. Anyway enjoy the storm . I witnessed 14in in an 8 hour period in Dec 2018. Will never forget it.

Apparently the airport here hasn't had a foot in 60 years which is kind of crazy. 16.1 is the record
I'm gonna start taking pictures in a bit. There's really no rush... The peak isn't til this afternoon..

I'm gonna try and do a time capsule of this view through the day
Oh good grief 
I think this is what's going to kill us:
.NEAR TERM /TODAY/...
As of 300 AM Sunday...
Increasing cloudiness, chilly highs in the 40s.
After a cold morning, temperatures will slowly moderate this
afternoon. Winds will be light and variable under the strong high
pressure. As the high pressure shifts east this afternoon, the high
cloudiness associated with the approaching storm from the west will
increase. There may be some virga with the passage of the H85 warm
front this afternoon, especially across the NW-N Piedmont. Highs
should only top out around 40 NW into the mid/upper 40s south.

Cloudy with a chance of virga.... that's a new one. lol

They were questioning yesterday if we'd even be changed over yet 
Yeah those TV in-house models are still showing snow up here but I agree, very dry airmass doubt any makes it to the ground. They are still showing decent onset zr potential right along the border. I won't be surprised if an advisory is issued late afternoon for Warren Co. westward for counties on the border for that light glaze potential before change over. Looks like we're losing the backside band option boo
Sorry for posting this here, but is anyone else having issues seeing mPing reports? I wanted to view check this storm as well as what hopefully is coming later. I cannot get the map to load. Perhaps itās completely on my end or maybe I have missed something.

I canāt see mpings either, only the red reports
I guess we'll be tracking this to the end. If we get any precip to develop overnight tonight, we could see that as ice in northern NC. RAH mentioned the H85 (high level??) warm front passage this afternoon. Not sure (knowledgeable) what that would do to put a cap on precip development afterwards.

Beefy, HRRR continues to come in better and better as this front end is looking more robust.
