Ended up with an inch of snow. These pictures are from 10AM after some melting occurred. The temp never got below 32.2 and was around 33.4 during basically the whole event. Had temps been a tick lower would have been looking at 1 and a half to 2 inches. Also heard from others on the other board in middle and East Tennessee that temps also went up a degree when snow started falling. I’ve never seen it happen before last night and neither had the other posters who mentioned it. Either way nice little event that is already completely melted do to a 41 degree high so far. So gfs consistently showed about 1 and a half inches while euro showed a half inch. Gfs busted high while euro busted low. Even though both were a half inch off I think the gfs did better for this area as literally 1 degree less and it would have nailed it. So far the upgrade last year seems to have done the Gfs some good Especially in the 3 day range.
Couple 30 second bursts of graupel here in Greenville, came down at a good clip.

Quick bursts of graupel moving in again in Cary.
Yeah can confirm the heavy graupel shower here in APEX the returns north of Raleigh look like there could be accumulation ... we even started to get some here before it stopped

Got a convective snow shower here at the house for about 5 minutes. Pretty cool.

The latest NAM run is showing a small but interesting looking band of precipitation moving through north Georgia late tomorrow night as the next feature rotates through. 
Someone is very very happy in here
Chased a rain/snow/graupel shower

Really curious to see if someone in Wake County gets a light dusting from one of these convective snow showers

Quality is horrible but you get the idea
Any guesses when the snow moved in? ?

Remember for a while for these snow squalls, one of the best setups for these in a while

I got the thunder but no snow.
There wasn’t even a watch ?
Good amount of snow reports today across the region. Not too bad for such a bad pattern.
Wouldn't sleep on tomorrow night into Monday morning either

The clouds looked like a July afternoon, Except it ended up being 40 and snowing. Got caught under another little shower. Sun Shining and all.
