It’s ripping pretty good here now. Every flake is sticking to the glacier out there.

So I picked up at least another half inch overnight into this morning for a total of 5 inches maybe a tick higher. Low temp was 9.7 degrees. For my area the euro really Nailed it as it was consistently showing the higher totals While other models backed off a lot. The cold won out in the end on the back end of the storm. Also was shocked after the dry slot happened and then filled in agin because That has never happened that I can remember. At the time only 3 inches of sleet had fallen and I thought that was it.

Bet that is some lake effect off Pickwick. Light snow here about 3 miles east of downtown Florence.

Same, it didn’t take long for it to melt off! Still a nice dusting, but nothing like earlier.

Just for perspective on how impressive the cold was at DFW airport this morning... The airport didn't exist last time it was that cold at the official Dallas site...

I believe you are right. These flakes are pretty big.

That's what happens when a huge chunk of the PV breaks off and comes straight down right over you. Seems like a yearly thing now.

Still flurrying/light snow here in Madison, but I think it's just about done. I got to see snow falling and the ground is mostly white, so I'm not going to complain!
The sun will melt snow even with temperatures in the teens. It’s even worse on asphalt and darker surfaces, which absorbs solar radiation more effectively. I think a 40 degree cloudy day oftentimes is better for maintaining snowcover than 25 degree sunny day. However, even on a cloudy day solar radiation will play a role to some degree.
I hope I get to see a street sticker again. It’s only been five years and counting...
What a nice surprise this morning. For the first time in the three winters since we bought this house in McCalla AL, our little farm was solid white for a while. Bent Brook Golf Course behind our property was absolutely beautiful as well. Wish it had been more, but I will not complain.

A persistent wind and cloud deck keeping us cooled. 25.7 is the highest it's been all afternoon. The high was just after midnight which was 40.5.How is it 28 in Atlanta and 54 in Columbia ?
I'm up to a balmy 25.3 now after bottoming out at 21.5.

Still at 28 and overcast at my location. If the skies don't clear up soon, I'm not getting above freezing, or possibly even out of the 20s, today. NWS forecast high of 37 looks to be a bust.
I’m enjoying this beautiful 60 degree day at RDU, but my station is still 26.5F back home with yet another dusting on the deck. Yippee
