[kayman]

It's still virga in intown Charlotte, but the atmosphere is clearly moisting up very quickly. The ceiling has lowered significantly since 11AM.

I'm not too far from that supposed Shearon Harris Reservoir-Effect plume, and, no.

Husband's boss needs to lay off the edibles this early in the day.

Depending on how fast/slow this migrates north can make significant difference in snow accumulation I would think

Would also think the 925 has to be trailing unless this scours down vertically quickly.

RAP also increased the totals further south in Wake.

I really wish the NWS would solve the radar donut hole around Metro Charlotte, which is 3.5 million in population, that is underserved by the local NEXRAD Level II radar out of Greer, SC.  It probably should be its own NWS forecast area with a local NEXRAD.

It shows some signs of precip returns inside the I-485 beltway on the CLT Terminal Radar.

Already covered in Lexington and the South Triad

It is weird how Charlotte is not the NWS home office site. Rather, an obscure location in SC. Doesn’t make sense.

First flake sighted! South Greensboro

First flakes falling here in Cornelius by Lake Norman

The answer to these kinds of things is always politics. At some point Greer, SC probably had a rep that had oversight over Commerce. HUN still has an office because the rep threatened to nuke NEXRAD funding if they shut it down.

Nothing at southern edge of KGSO property . . . yet (just passing by).

HRRR and RAP have both been pushing the line down a little further with each run today.

Gonna call BS on that one from here in W Apex.

[CLTwx]

Fort Mill, SC we are no reporting light to occasionally moderate snow. Took a bit of time to moisten up.

Idk. I hear you. I was skeptical. But that’s what he said. Say reports of sleet in Fay before radar. So… idk. Beats me. 

[DC2Winston]

Dusting and street covered here in Winston near Wake Forest campus. Decent rates.

No flakes yet near Duke. I just finished blowing leaves out of the yard so they don't mess with my accumulation.

[QC_Halo]

In south Charlotte…tiniest , barely visible flakes. Charlotte snow hole.
