RAP and HRRR are epic for coastal Lowcountry GA/SC into OBX. Easily 6-10" region.

Snowing a little heavier now. Temperature is down to 24.8 and measuring about 2" of accumulation so far.

I wonder how accurate these models have been though in past scenaros? 6-10" would be the most I think this areas has had since 1989 or 1973 maybe?

I cannot explain the 12Z NAM totals for the Sandhills, unless there's some anticipated frontogenesis shenanigans involved. But the NWS in Raleigh just put Cumberland and Sampson Co. under a WSW.
scrolling through TikTok live and there’s an ungodly amount of snow piling up along US-10 in Louisiana.

Man that looks like it’s going to set right up over the triangle later tonight

I will say I'm getting reports from areas closer to the coast of up to 6 inches so far with some of the heavier banding. I'm on the northern drier zone of the precip, so accumulations near here have been lighter.
Savannah's modern record is 3.6, supposedly there were 18 inches in 1800

Double that I'd say.

Need it to find a way to go boom off the Carolina coast a hundred miles closer....it does certainly have that feel to it, old school where you watched TWC to see what was happening downstream.
Do you think more counties get added to this along US-1? Or is this where they think the best chance is to reach WSW criteria or above that could occur?
There was a livestream that showed up on my YT recommendations. These guys are driving just west of Lafayette, LA. The snow is really intense so far.
It’s showing 25F where he’s at, too! Insane for a snowfall on the Gulf Coast!!!
This seems reasonable. The FV3 and the latest HRRR really want to slow the back edge down for the southeast metro area and Stanly and Anson Counties.
Snow starting to fall in Auburn, AL

RAP very obvious showing FGEN banding over Midlands SC to give them a boost.

For NC folks, dang just saw WRAL in-house model (futurecast) and it had snow back to 85 easily and snow over the region for a good 7 hours. Impressive!
Do you think they use the GRAF or is it something else?

I'm seeing sun through the clouds here in Roswell. I expect it to thicken but that's not what I thought would happen.
My guess it is the GRAF or based off of it, really not sure, but seems that is what a lot of TV stations local "in-house" models use

As someone who grew up in southern Lexington county, I thought moving north of I20 was how I was supposed to get all the goods lol.
Models combined with my gut makes me think that there's a stretch of Aiken, southern Lexington, and southern Richland that could get quite a bit more than they're anticipating

Saw this reported at New Orleans airport (MSY) - 3 inches on the ground, 2 inches in the last hour

It's called the Baron model. I have no idea what that is tho.
So I think that puts them above the all-time record at the airport and they have a shot at beating their 1895 city record with the way the radar is looking.

That's a brutal gradient over Pitt Co

Same thing here. Not sure about FFC’s note for areas north of town, but the fact that I have ground truth that nothing is under this band just south of Birmingham tells me that this one may just be done for the north metro/exurbs

Just south of you at Abernathy & 400 and cloud deck has thickened up. Definitely looking like snow clouds. Be interested to see what happens with this band of heavier returns moving in from AL over the next hour
I had a brief part of the clouds in midtown, now its thickened up again and I am starting to see some very light flurries scattered about again here and there lol.
