About 2-3" accumulation here in CLT. Seems to have stopped for now. Don't know the temp but it's cold as a mother/father here on the back porch. You live in CLT ? I figured it would just be moist and warm !🤐

I drove down the long, 1/2 mile long steep drive way today, with 4WD and studded snow tires, no problema.
Went down to the grocery store and it was open. Coming back up in the blowing snow was a real bitch, barely made it, I all but slid over into the ditch. The ditch is 10 feet deep.I needed chains! I wish this stuff would melt.

Terrible winds here on the plateau around Lewisburg, Snowing now. I’d say 8-10” ( hard to judge with the wind) with drifts up to 24” or more. Road closure due to the drifts. This is farming and cattle country in WV. Fought this since yesterday. Not the worse snow I’ve seen but the wind is making it bad.

We got about 6" here in Upstate, SC. Since we still have the Christmas lights up and my wife has Covid for the SECOND time, I plugged 'em all in for her. She loves Christmas and snow. I'm such a good husband. great pic!
...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

No better entertainment than Hotlanta getting 3" of snow on I-75.

Our roads will be a mess in the morning with the hard freeze that is coming. It’s getting down to 16 degrees tonight. Pretty cold for these parts. I’ve got the wood stove jamming, so I’m good!

Pushed snow all day out of jobs so the guys could work tomorrow and out of properties we own. Wind blowing frozen snow/ice felt like a sand blaster on your face. 3rd snow in 2 weeks and calling for more end of this week. I’m ready for spring. I think I’ll like it a lot more after I retire.

Same for us J M. I still have a few years to work but I’m ready. Luckily, I had the day off. Not tomorrow.

No better entertainment than Hotlanta getting 3" of snow on I-75. Rented a car in Atlanta we drove it down to north Florida up to n Carolina poking around taking our time. Was pretty proud of myself for easy navigating with no issues then it snowed an inch the day I had to take it back. Hoe Lee Schit... I was laser focus trying to make those summer tires behave surrounded by a lot of people way out of their element. White nuckle trip till we finally made it the airport. Cars off the road everywhere. Damn!
