23 and hard sleet now. Got about 2 inches of snow prior to changeover. I'll take it. Everything's white and COLD. Beautiful.

 

[Arcc]

Ripping snow now.

 

[Bannerdude]

Freezing rain starting to fall with the sleet here in Durham

 

[Showmeyourtds]

I have 30.7 in N Druid Hills...So yeah.

What kind of PWS do you have that’s getting that temp? Nearly every reporting station in Dekalb co plus locations to your north are warmer, 33-34.

 

[RosewoodWX]

Rain has changed to sleet here with a few flakes mixed in near the AL/GA border close to I20. Temp 35/34

 

[DixieBlizzard]

Power flickering. No snow or ice? What a kick in the nads that would be. I at least have football to watch today unless..... UGH!!!

 

[KyloG]

From what I am reading above it really looks the NAM's sucked balls on predicting where snow would fall...

GSP has 4-5"? CLT has 3"?

 

[PGAWx]

Temp has begun to climb here in Raleigh. 27.9.

 

[Nerman]

Just switched over to heavy sleet. I'm centered between Buford, Flowery Branch and Braselton.

 

[neelsamb]

Down to 32.3 and the sleet is really pinging off the windows. Getting close here.

There is way to much wind and mixing to have any cold or warm pockets either. The only minor differences could be caused by elevation, but everyone should generally be in lockstep.

Snow in every direction but the Bham area. Typical for our area.

You can see how strong that NE wind has been with where the roof is bare

[Ward Cleaver]

Sleet has taken over here, in Summerfield, NC.

I’m probably a few miles east of you and I’ve transitioned to sleet, too. Small snowflakes mixing in just a tad.

Edit: Back to mostly snow now.

 

[accu35]

Can hear the county road crews and their chainsaws on the road at the top of our subdivision, clearing trees that fell over the road. Light to moderate sleet mixing in with the freezing rain now. Just had a wind gust over 40 mph (estimate).
