All snow in Marion and 32 degrees. Sticking on trees and cars. Been that way since 1:30.  Driving south of I-40, all snow until rain snow mix ten miles north of Lake Lure. 32 degrees here in Northwest Rutherford Mountains. Hoping for changeover to all snow soon.

Two hours, one inch. Loved it just the same...

Snowing steadily here north of Lake Lure. Beginning to stick on the deck. 33 degrees. Hooray

Amazing what one inch of snow can do... This was at 5 p.m. with a 33 degree temperature.

Looks like 14 inches might be it. Big freeze tonight.  I was surprised by by the gusty winds this morning and this afternoon. Looked like a blizzard at times. Very memorable event. Loved every minute of it. Perhaps more later???  Here was my house before daybreak. This will be my Christmas card photo.

Very heavy snow and the wind is gusting to 25 mph. A mini-blizzard...

Snowing heavily again. Over 10". Just remarkable beauty...
