LOL.
6-7", then sleet/rain. Heavy shit.
Shoveled out. Tacoma'ed out.
Neighborhood streets suk. Thoroughfares ok.

About a foot here as well, very cold, and 65 mph winds all day yesterday and last night.
<edit> Actually, 75 mph winds were clocked in downtown Blowing Rock. I mashed the wrong button. All the shoveling out I did on Sunday afternoon got covered back over with drifts Monday. Aaack.

Got to get the new whip out taking the wife to work yesterday morning.

Got lucky -- only 6-7 inches without any rain/ice. It melted enough for me to get out this afternoon.

We had about 8-9" at our house in the upstate with a bit of sleet, but no freezing rain.  The wife got called into the hospital for a shift Sunday night, but thankfully had thought ahead and stayed with a coworker/friend Saturday night before the storm, so the two of them drove the couple minutes to work and back Sunday and Monday.  The wife made the 30 minute drive home Monday afternoon.  Roads were perfectly fine this morning minus a few shady spots.

Looks like we may have to go through this again in a day or two.  I have to get my favorite healthcare worker to the hospital Saturday morning.

Everyone is now driving like it's summer vacation until they hit a shady spot with lots of slippery stuff.

More crashes this morning than I saw Sunday - Tuesday afternoon.

Onslow

It was unexpectedly snowy between Stuart VA and NC border on Rt. 103 last night. 2 inches of snow on the road while at 34 degrees w/ tremendous amounts falling. I believe all areas around SML and south to the border received considerably more than expected.

We got about 4" more here last night. Temps in the low teens and 45mph wind gusts. Not a good day to go swimming.
