I can tell you the temps are headed downward....

 

Edit. FB friend is reporting flurries in Greenwood SC.

I am at work near Blyhtewood right now. Live in Ballentine between Irmo and Chapin. Maybe I will get to see a flake.

BRIEF BAND OF SNOW SHOWERS MOVING ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF
CENTRAL NC...

A NARROW BAND OF SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST ACROSS
THE TRIAD TOWARDS THE TRIANGLE REGION THROUGH 500 PM. A BRIEF 15
TO 30 MINUTES OF LOCALLY MODERATE SNOW SHOWERS MAY OCCUR WITH THIS
BAND. THERE MAY BE A QUICK DUSTING OF SNOW...LIKELY REMAINING
ONLY TRACE AMOUNTS.

THE TEMPERATURES WERE IN THE MID TO UPPER 30S THROUGHOUT THE
REGION...WITH SLIGHTLY WARMER ROAD TEMPERATURES. THEREFORE...THE
SNOW SHOULD MELT ON IMPACT WITH THE ROAD SURFACES.

IN ADDITION...WINDS MAY BRIEFLY BECOME GUSTY...WITH GUSTS UP TO 40
MPH POSSIBLE.

That was fun. Snow was  legit moderate to briefly heavy..although the heaviest passed just north of here i believe. It was incredibly dark before hand and once it started the wind picked up a lot. Sustained at 20 gusting to 25 and it made for a really cool  scene. Even picked up a light dusting like everyone else. If temps were below freezing it would have been more impressive as most of it still melted with a starting temp of 38 which dropped to 32 by the time it ended.

 

Looks like another weaker shower is on the way. Sure makes me wish we could get a legit snowstorm and makes me envious of those to the north of here with this upcoming system since it will be dry here.

My skunk is off with a pitiful dusting or multiple dustings.  It is weird to see the moisture clear Lookout Mountain like it did.  I reckon that is likely due to the more WNW direction the bands are taking rather than the typical NW.  Here's to hoping for more on Friday night.

The big band south of High Point will go a little too far north for me (near fuquay)...  But the one underneath it looks to be building!

Yeah the Asheboro line looks juicy now...it's all coming together...
