If I'm getting mainly rain/sleet here in south wake...  is there any hope for snow later?  I knew this would happen

 

Yes, the melting snow will continue to cool the atmosphere.  Rain/snow/sleet mix was supposed to occur until that happened.  I still think you should expect snow in an hour or two.  May change back to sleet though after a few hours.

Incredible how much potential this storm had for the Atlanta area, yet it ended up worse than Jan last year...like what? Sigh...

I think that convection down south really screwed things up here. AL and MS got the huge totals because that convention hadn't formed and the best moisture was transferred north, which I don't think happened here. This is somewhat of a guess but I know that southern convection has hurt us before.

Those higher dbzs are snow eaters. You do not want them. All sleet.

 

The sleet won't necessarily translate north.  The radar shows bright banding from large wet flakes as well.  With that in mind it certainly could be sleet as the atmosphere continues to cool thermodynamically.
