Idk if I'd say this is an inch of snow, but some areas have MUCH better coverage than I would've anticipated with how we had started.

Sinking air from the 2 main areas of precip caused by rising air motion.
We are the rotor in the middle of two spinning helicopter blades
Snow has stopped here as well east of Cary.

@Rain Cold Are you getting any of this band that developed overhead? Pretty dang impressive.

I got some news for those NAM runs. We’ve got 4+ and counting right now with a great downstream radar. 4.8 ain’t gonna be close, lol

Somebody walked in my apartment courtyard 30 minutes ago or so and the footprints are long gone.

I mean its pretty obvious on the radar the thing is going negative and its close to the coast, so hopefully it does.

I guess it got it right here, though. Just sucks that the globals and NAM are useless when it comes to specifics and you can only halfway depend on the HRRR and 3K NAM maybe 12 hours out. But even now the current 3K NAM run just showed this, and it's nowhere close to what's going to happen here.To be fair, the HRRR is swinging wildly all over the place, too, and yet people post it a lot during the storm. According to it last night, I should be blanked but it's been pouring snow here for two hours.

Also I haven’t measured in awhile but based on what’s added up since last time I’d say we’re close to 6”. Definitely have a shot at 10.
Winds are starting to kick up a bit too. And when it does, you can't see 100 yards in front of you! I thought we might get a couple hours of heavy snow here, but I never imagined it would be like this during the middle of the day

That back edge is slowly moving west.

Flurry action now in Wilmington. Very light. The wind has picked up the last hour. I'm sure that low pressure off the coast is starting to crank up now.

The approaching trough and deep-layer cold air from the west is a ton meeting resistance from the warm advection being supplied by the mesolow over Columbia SC right now. This leads to insane low level frontogenesis and convergence over the Western Piedmont of Nc.
The end result of this “war” between these 2 clashing air masses with additional deep-layer support for ascent from the trough, is an insane “death” band of extremely heavy snow
I’m happy I get to live vicariously through everyone here that’s getting to witness this all-time snow event in the SW Piedmont & Charlotte

Still puking snow even with lighter returns overhead. Insane how long it has been pounding without easing up
Lets get these temps down and overperform
Absolutely no reason to get one's hopes up about anything in Raleigh. You wre just gonna get burned every single time. I committed the punishable offense of having even an ounce of belief in a 5-8 inch snow storm here in Raleigh. Yet, here we are. I'm really happy that this has been a crush job for everyone else but it has been such a disappointment at home base. Type of thing that makes you want to stop tracking this stuff entirely. Unbelievable.
I’m right there with ya. I’ve held a steady rate for the past 2 hours now but the flakes keep switching between decently sized and very tiny - and knowing how close I am to the edge of glory right now has me nervous but I just gotta let it ride and see how far we can hold on here in Durham

At this point, just believe what you see out your window.

Already accumulating lightly on grill after just 20 minutes of snow on JI.
Man It looks like 5 30 to 8, but northern wake county up, its light sauce till 9. Really really hate this for yall. I expected less accums, but light qpf, not 0 flakage. Just no lift in a 40 mile wide stretch /transfer zone. Like you getting subsidence from both sides

Ripping now. Probably around 5 inches. Think I’ve got a shot at 10.
Same here. We just gotta hope we can hold on to this a lot of the afternoon, and then catch the coastal later. Not sure that's particularly likely, but eh...

Snow has officially ended here in Toccoa GA, I have recorded 7.2-7.5" inches overall. Here are some photos and videos of the storm, primarily during that final squall which dumped an additional 3-4 inches the last 2 hours.

LOL, I know that intersection. I used to live right there (now I am 5-10 mins away across I-40 in NE Chapel Hill). That's impressive since that tower is certainly within a mile of that location.

Watching BIL's Ring camera from old town Beaufort is wild. Can't tell accumulation but it's heavy looking at visibility across the street.

Thoughts on Raleigh?
Suppose no chance this moves a bit east? Cause this borderline feels personal at this point in CNC
6 inches, very light snow falling as it winds down here. 19.4
