Just a dusting, maybe a half-inch so far in Holly Springs. I was under the impression the moisture would be pushing in from the coast, but the maps in motion look like it's essentially just sliding by in the typical SW to NE pattern. Unless there's something that starts pushing moisture in from the coast and shifting things back to the west then it's going to be a big letdown around here. 1/28/2014 8:36:21 PM |

I'm skeptical but they did say the heaviest was supposed to be from 9-12 but I fear downtown and west might max at 2" or so 1/28/2014 8:38:40 PM |

If you look at WRAL's forecast, the 1-4" line was right on the western border of Wake county. Therefore, a 2" snowfall isn't far off what they said.
People see 1-4" and only see 4".
3-6" and only see 6"
Plus, it isn't over. 1/28/2014 8:48:57 PM |

It's doin what they said it would. People just got too amped up when the POSSIBILITY of a larger snow came about. The models never got a solid grip on this storm but its gonna do about what they said it would at the beginning. From now on, my advice is to not pay attention to people predicting high amounts because they are just trying to grandstand and get attention 1/28/2014 9:01:57 PM |

The forecast was 3"-6", we're not talking about outlier models

3"-6" was a very good forecast for this storm. they are going to be almost right on.
if it was all rain, no one would notice that they forecasted 3 tenths and it only rained 4 tenths... 1/28/2014 9:29:03 PM |

Been snowing really good here in Carrboro for a while now. Took forever and at first it was very small snowflakes, but now it is rolling pretty good. Grass is getting covered (roads and shit have been covered) and its still going strong. Not a motherfucker though, that's for sure. But a nice snow nonetheless. Now just hoping UNC shuts down in the AM or the buses don't run. Not counting on that though! 1/28/2014 10:26:45 PM |

this is the most I have seen in Wilmington in a long time. Most of it is sleet, so I can't imagine how deep it would be as snow.
I was snowed in in New York last week, so I am getting to be spoiled at this point. 1/28/2014 10:38:49 PM |

Apparently Atlanta pulled a Raleigh 2005. People who left work at 1pm are still trying to get home. Absolute gridlock with people in cars for 9 hours plus so far and stranded:

My dad is one of those people stuck on the road in ATL. He left at 12:30. Still hours away from home (acworth) based on the traffic, according to him.
