I'm in the salt mines in Charlotte as I type, but Al Rose said he already has 1/2" of snow and his temp is 32.5 degrees. I usually don't post if it looks like less than an inch of snow, but this system got off to an early start and the overnight runs of the NAM and GFS upped our ACA in a 1-3" band (which would correlate more to our elevation with lighter stuff at the bottom and the bigger amounts up top where Al is).
HOWEVER, it is supposed to mix with rain soon and stay above freezing, which would limit those #s. I suppose those amounts will work if the temps hold low a few hours more, but afternoon temps are forecast to be well above freezing. Would not anticipate any road issues.
UPDATE 7:30a - Got an Apple Creek Road update that had 32 degrees at the top with 1" of wet snow, and coating the road, slushy not icy. At the red house 'flat' for sale, 32 degrees, but accumulations stop on the road, just on vegetation. At the entrance, 32 degrees but snow mixing with rain and no accumulation. At Junaluska it was 36 degrees.
