9.3” right now for me and getting the heaviest of the day
That area on the radar at the NC/SC below me in really growing and heading north, hopefully this is the coastal starting to do work.

The Lancaster band vs dry air aloft battle is raging right now for the metro. Still snowing really hard but tiny flakes. Not sure how much longer we can keep this up.
Just measured a bunch and have anywhere from 8 to 15 or so. Got 9ish on most flat but windblown tables/chairs. 10-10.5 in the grass. Nowhere near a jackpot but very happy.

4 to 4.5 west of you in Tigerville.
It just does not want to rip tonight… Come on!!

Looks like this one is winding down for us here. Back edge working this way, still got a light snow for time being though.
Got so lucky with this one.
Got between 10-11” t2 largest snow storm I’ve ever seen here. Snowed from sun up to sun down with temps in teens whole time. Cant ask for much more

I’m glad that you got some either way man. What happened though? Last I looked at a map you guys down that way were supposed to get pasted with about 5inch right?
0Z Ob: 6.25 inches on the snow board since 18Z for a total of 8.45. But I don't think that is accurate because the wind has been blowing it around so much. Random spot check average around the yard comes out to about 9.25 sitting on the ground.
I'm not an expert in snow drifts, but the deepest snow spots without a backboard at 15-18 inches deep. If there is a backboard, its piled over 3 ft high!
Things are starting to wind down a bit here, lowest rates of the past 8 hours now. 20/18

A true downpour. I’m staring out my window like a giddy little kid on Christmas

The dry slots really cutting into anything major down here. Driveway and roads hasn't even folded yet. Probably 1/4 to 1/3 of an inch on grass so far. Think the airport recorded 0.6. Amazing what 15-20 miles difference does.

This batch of moisture coming out of the northern meck area and working into the Hickory/Morganton area, could this be lake effect snow off Mtn Island Lake??
It’s absolutely crazy! I can’t get under a heavy return. It now looks like it’ll die out all around me. North, east and west.
This is definitely the energy coming in from the east with the coastal low — because these rates are head and tails above the light to moderate snowfall I had all afternoon.

Easily over an inch per hour down here. We've picked up 2+ since supper time. 5 seems doable overnight, maybe more if the bands don't progress east very quickly.

Ended at 11.5” here Mooresville NC Highway 152/Linwood Road @Webber 3 separate flat measurements off a flat board averaged
Finishes tied with 2004 where I also got 11.5”
Feb 2014 remains the King for now 12.5”. Screw it though I’m counting a foot what’s a 1/2 among friends.

About an hour and a half worth’s of snow. Some big drifts in some areas already. Two years in a row!
Not falling for it

Yeah I’m about 30 miles or so north of Charleston and only have 1” - 1.5” so far. The dry slots are killing us uggg.
No, I'm on the NE side right near the Durham County border.
Dry slotted as always

Definitely 5” and I’m thinking 7 is possible
Hard to judge versus when it was daylight earlier, but this might indeed be the heaviest snow of the storm right now.
Per my in-laws scattered around Carteret and Craven counties they've been sweeping and shoveling almost nonstop. Legit drifts piling up 6+ inches against the door in 30 minutes.

Thats very accurate for Oconee county. I was dead nuts on 4 inches most spots measured. We drove toward Mountain Rest where it quickly doubled that 20 minutes away. I was worried this morning when I got up and there weren't any flurries or anything so all in all im happy with 4 inches. Still haven't gotten a 6 incher in decades at nearly 1000ft elevation. Columbia got it in 2010 and now Charlotte. Time to come back full circle one of these winters hopefully.

Radar has alot of precip starting to fire up at the most southern part of nc there may be hope for those that have been dry slotted by the looks of it as it seems to be building in strength the further inland it comes
wow

Well that pretty much confirms my amateur measurements ...12 and 13 inches between Mooresville and Salisbury. That ULL/mesolow track was incredible. From here out, this is a bar to measure future storms.
Gentlemen I’m gonna go ahead and say it
You could live 10 lifetimes and you might not see another one play out that way around here
An old fashioned Carolina snowstorm
Top 3..easy
