It's pouring down hard here in Concord, Sleet mainly, maybe a tiny bit of snow mixed in if any at all.

Minus the flaming car, it was like that in Charlotte earlier today, they had at one point over 120 wrecks that CMPD was dealing with. CMPD did a pretty good job of clearing out the roads and helping stranded drivers move their cars.

Nah, I don't work for Yahoo.

Raleigh was nuts today, take a look at this picture. Wow.

Brad Panovich ‏@wxbrad 1m The 700mb low still has to move through could give us a big last burst of snow. http://http://twitpic.com/dvbofq

Yea, just watched the 6 pm news break on the website live stream. Calling for another 2-5 inches in the Northern Charlotte area's into Cabarrus county. they didn't mention tomorrow in the latest forecast though.

Here's underground weather. Saying another 1-3 inches of snow/sleet tonight and then another 3-5 inches tomorrow. http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:28083.1.99999 I think Brad is saying it's going to be more snow then Ice, at least he was earlier today.

Brad Panovich at 5:30 put out snow fall totals that were expected from the deformation band coming in from the SW. That band is going to hit sometime tonight and bring in another 6-12 inches with the heavier totals north of I-85 towards the foothills and mountains. They were calling for another 7 inches in Concord on top of the 5-7 inches already on the ground. He was talking about 2-3 inches of snow per hour coming from the 700mb.

Going to get slammed tonight with another band of snow that's going to bring another 6-12 inches depending on where you're live.

Places like target never close and except employees to come in during this mess. University store was open not but an hour ago. That's the reason for people driving. We've got 6 inches and counting in concord

The snow is pretty much like ice on the roads, don't drive if you don't have too.

It just started here in concord and it's sticking to everything .

Just released his latest forecast and it's not good at all. Storm sticking around well into Thursday and Friday morning with a clipper Friday night. Raised his projection for Ice in Charlotte to .20 of an inch.

Brad P is calling for less snow and more ice in Charlotte. Says the storm is trending west and that will mean more ice. Latest projection is 5-8 inches of snow and around a quarter inch of ice.

Underground Weather and the Weather Channel are now Calling for 8-12 inches of snow in the Charlotte Metro and surrounding areas. http://www.weather.com/weather/alerts/localalerts/28025?phenomena=WS&significance=W&areaid=NCZ072&office=KGSP&etn=0005 http://www.wunderground.com/q/zmw:28083.1.99999.html#warn

The good thing is that the heavy snow early today kept temperatures from reaching 40 today, so it's going to be colder in the morning then originally thought. Means more snow and less ice here.

Hearing New Bern got 5 inches today. wow... Here in Concord, no accumulation left from earlier today and just light snow now.

It's started melting here in Concord, an hour ago my back yard was covered and now it's mostly gone. It's still snowing lightly, just not keeping up with how much is melting on the ground.

It's not warming up like they thought it was going to, the temperature is below freezing now. It's actually gotten colder and colder since the snow started falling. 1-2 inches of snow today, then heavier snow tomorrow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cMlQsxMpHE&feature=youtu.be&a

Latest snow and ice predictions from Panovich. Have Charlotte Getting 5-7 inches of Snow and roughly .15 inches of Ice. Still has large portions of SC and Eastern NC getting .75 to over an inch of ice. Along with about 2-3 inches of Snow in those areas. He's got Lancaster getting 3-6 inches of snow and close to 3 quarters of ice accumulation.

From what I've read and seen, it's a combination of freezing rain and sleet. An half inch to an inch of freezing rain and sleet sticking to power lines, cable lines, phone lines, road signs....trees... All of that has a great potential to fall with that much weight baring down on it. If Brad Panovich and the models are right, that's a historical storm that's going to be very deadly.

inch of ice, talking over a thousand pounds of pressure on the power lines. Tree's down everywhere, power poles snapping, power lines snapping.... Area's that have above ground phone and cable should expect those to go out along with the power. Almost all of SC would probably be with out power excluding the coast line. Along with northern Georgia and Alabama, parts of NC in the Triangle area. That's all Duke power fed area's and probably a few million people with out power, combine that with the road conditions and the storm lasting for 2-3 days. Probably easily looking at 3 weeks before everyone would have power restored. I really hope the forecast models are wrong about how much ICE is expected.

This sounds just lovely for the area. Also models are showing that there's over a 50% chance of an inch of ice in Columbia, SC. Almost all of SC and parts of Georgia having a high chance of half an inch. https://twitter.com/JimCantore/status/432885265007652864/photo/1

I think the storm shifted in a bit more then the earlier predictions were for. I don't see how weather channel's forcast still only shows less then an inch, when if you watch the videos from this morning they have Charlotte in the 3-5 inch area plus a bunch of ice.
