According to a history book on Mecklenburg County, Charlotte received five inches of snow from the April 15, 1849 snowstorm. The S.C. Department of Natural Resources says 6 inches of snow was measured in that storm in Columbia. David Ludlum in his book on Early American Winters says four inches of snow fell in Fayetteville, NC and around six inches of snow was measured near Wilmington, NC. The Mecklenburg County history book account also mentions that it was not until mid-summer 1849 that trees made a "respectable shade." Sounds similar to what happened to the trees after the April 2007 freeze.
Maybe a gram ...12Z EPS ? for your viewing pleasure: Charlotte is in sweet spot with mean of 1”, but keep in mind EPS cold bias meaning take this with a grain:

The stronger the storm the more north it will trend. Watch out blue ridge of NC. I would favor Virginia over SC in a setup like this.

Knowing your predictions, I'll stick with I-85 into SC then maybe NW of and including Charlotte as the snow swath.The stronger the storm the more north it will trend. Watch out blue ridge of NC. I would favor Virginia over SC in a setup like this.
