Last night Euro tracks low right down NC/SC state line. So it crep north, but put some right under the coldest air aloft just north of that in the 40 corridor. Also did a great job on that backside little deform band that has constantly been showing up. That band is what helps guys off to the east have a great shot. This time it was wake county down into the coastal plain.
We need to root for this thing to deepen some as its approaching the coast line, that imo would cause a quick little mini pivot movement so to speak and catch several on the backside for a couple of hours. By this time everyone will be on the north and west side, not have to woryy with waa messing up their 850's.

It is really hard to not get excited with the Euro on your side.

Soil temps will be irrelevant for areas that will see the heaviest snow imo.

Soil temps are never irrelevant, especially when combined with above freezing BL temps and especially if it’s during the daylight hours. Just look at last February. Yes, they can be overcome, but they will impact accumulations.

Anyone chasing, Marion area isnt a bad spot imo. you can catch the eastern escarpment upslope. Shuffle north or south if need be. Wosrse comes to worse just slide up in to Mt Mitchell area bordering county. Whats the road from Old fort up into Linville/Little Switzerland area?

US 221 will take you from Marion up into Linville Falls, Newland, Boone areas. NC-226 will take you from Marion to Little Switzerland, Spruce Pine, Blue Ridge Parkway.

I could see Trends favoring a part of North eastern upstate. Maybe extreme northern Greenville and parts of Spartanburg and Cherokee counties. That low pressure just off the coast may sling moisture back into those few areas when temps are just cold enough. Likely leaving Pickens and oconee counties with nothing. But we will see

These are my thoughts as well. This is basically a NC event but there may be a little something for the TR to Landrum folks. For the most part this just will not be an upstate snow unless we see that more southern track verify and that is unlikely given the setup and marginal cold.
 
I wouldn't get to excited about the 12K Nam, the 3K is much more accurate as the resolution is higher
