According to TWC, they're in a mix right now so maybe TWC radar is wrong, but that's what I'm seeing. I'm mostly looking at downtown Dallas so maybe snow is falling in the western/northwestern side of the metroplex.

Starting to snow again here in southern NM underneath the upstream upper low.
Hard to complain about having snow on my birthday

Jeff Crum here In Charlotte used to call their radar “The Kryspy Kreme” of radars bc it had a lot of unneeded fluff

Not worth much at this range for the Georgia & Alabama folks, but Uncle Goof wants to stop sleeping under the porch

Elevation Changes here too… not a ton, But Uptown Around 650-700’ while Mooresville / Troutman are 900-950’ that added with the 30-35 miles helps

Continued trends south and higher totals....love it!

Looking like as a result of trying to keep the SFC low south and more consolidated (wedge holding more firmly further south). Better response for not having to transfer the low from inland to coast - ala Miller B.

Current temps VS. 12z NAM for current time. Of course where precip is actually falling and where the model expected it will have an effect. TFWIW.

Interesting dynamics at play...
NAM/HRRR both seem to be bearish on just disaster runs for South either hardly anything are just all freezing rain
GFS - Going big and ICON/FV-3 not too shabby either
RGEM/recent RAPs: slight tweak into more southern solutions
and watching radar to west comparing the models and seeing some current swing and misses on some of the "Bad" models and trying to decipher if thats proof they are off

Yes, "Charlotte" covers a big area that is often a cutoff spot, i.e. I-85 corridor. In the past 10 years Davidson, Mooresville, Huntersville areas (North Charlotte metro) have gotten numerous small events or dustings while South Charlotte has often gotten nothing. South Charlotte is further south than some parts of South Carolina. Local TV mets can predict "cold rain to 3 inches" in the county and be 100% accurate on both ends.

all the 12z models really started picking up on a strong fronto band that slowly moves through GA/SC. Love to see it.
Per the MPing reports, the snow/sleet line in Dallas, Texas is the I-20 corridor. Also lurking the Storm2K Texas Winter thread as well and same thing. Dallas/FTW overperforming right now.
at the very least, even if we do mix like crazy, still technically doing better then Boston this Jan

Anyone notice the tends on the GFS to transition back to snow after? If that keeps up it could be possible the ice goes further south altogether of shortens in duration. Cold press on the back may be stronger perhaps?

Sounds a lot like the Atlanta area during a winter storm. I-20 is usually the delineating between mostly/all snow and sleet/rain.

Gfs now showing all of north ga with more than an inch (most between 1.1 and 1.3) with 1 inch into the upstate. If this verified This is a major winter storm to be sure for ga/upstate. Sure looks like a major sleet storm in many areas.

Important note on 12z GFS is that it keep pushing up QPF from west to east into N. Ga., the S.C. upstate and western N.C. foothills/Piedmont. That's 4 consecutive GFS runs that have done so -- the .5 line is now on CLT's doorstep.

About 50 miles north of Dallas already has 2 and half inches of snow on the ground.

Rap coming in nicely!
Lord have mercy
I’d think we’d see some warnings go out in the Carolinas later this afternoon with a southward extension of advisories/watches. Lots of qpf coming and it all looks frozen pretty far south.
Mannn that’s pretty. Absolute pancakes. Hope e we all see some of that around here tomorrow
Always nice to have the RAP on your side *NSFW*

Wow -- huge QPF increase for CMC -- now virtually all of S.C./N.C. covered with .5 or higher!

That band across Macon/Augusta is interesting.. been seeing it a little in other models as well...
I kinda think that there will be some kind of 3-4” lollipop somewhere east of 77 along 85.
