Been some really nice rates recently. More of a consistent moderate snow now rather than shower-like.

Steady sleet still. Long duration event. Also, wind is basically calm now after being robust overnight and this morning - models were on top of that progression

I'm not confident those bands will verify here in all honesty. I feel like we are just about done here in the upstate. It is lightly flurrying here in Simpsonville. Feels like the end.
Trying to get to an inch on the table. Probably melted 2-3. Not too shabby.
That drift is so big… it’ll take weeks to melt
Finally snowing good here.

I live out by Mount Vernon and drove into Monroe, GA earlier to get some food. It was crazy the difference 5 miles made. I have a good dusting to maybe 1/2 inch at my house and hardly anything was sticking inside Monroe city limits. But yeah a lot was wasted bc it's been snowing for almost 5 hours straight now...
NOT complaining though bc we were set up for a major ice event with power outages. Knock on wood, I haven't even seen much wind at all today...
Anybody expecting another inch or two in the upstate from the wraparound, don’t! Downsloping FTL! From years of experience!
Would have easily had 3" here without marginal temps. I should have scraped an elevated surface in the shade to measure properly, but I'm going to go conservative and call it at 1.5" with over 1" on the ground.

Breezy and 64 degrees down here in Orlando. Was actually at the top of a roller coaster when a tornado warning was issued at 800am this morning. 
We just took a drive for the past hour or so. Nothing at my house despite snowing all day. The temp dropped down to 32 just north of Acworth with a good coating near Mars Hill. Drove down through north paulding and found about an inch at Burnt Hickory on 61. Came back home and there was a dusting within 1/2 mile from my house. Just a few white spots now showing up here at 33.

Short range models nailed precip type here. If it shows you being just south of snow, consider it game over. Sleet fest here from the start.

Update on my massive sleet piles. I have several around the house. Currently, 23.7/21.7 with steady sleet.
34.5 here. Moderate rain. Just had a 36 mph wind gust. Cool.
Just drove to the store. Main roads are mostly fine but secondary roads are knarly at this point. Very slushy. Fun, though, haha. WRX handling nicely.

Today was my first time driving in any type of wintry weather and it felt very confidence inspiring.
I'm not sure what my official total is. I usually just use my glass table on the back deck instead of a snow board in the middle of the yard. This time I didn't account for the light powder of a 25 degree snow and 35-40 mph wind gusts. There was snow blowing everywhere. Anyway there is 6 inches on the glass table and 6.8 on the deck surface. I'm willing to bet that's too high where snow blowed off the roof and the table top down there. Also the table is probably too low where the wind was probably taking the top off of it. Boy I butchered this measurement lol maybe I'll just split the difference and call it 6.4 for my records.
