Got about an inch of snow at my place, maybe slightly more, lightweight stuff that can be cleared with a broom.
Snow?

Got a coating of new snow here, it's still coming down although forecast only calls for .5 inch. Maybe more snow coming on Sunday though.
Luckily, again, it was easily removed by sweeping with the broom. I thought 04:30 was a bit too early to fire-up the leaf blower to remove it.

About a half inch here, easy to clear but the roads they didn't plow were pretty slippery early this morning.
This mornings NWS latest predictions for todays snow.
Expect precipitation to begin late morning into the early afternoon
as low pressure tracks northeast towards eastern North Carolina /
eastern Virginia. Temperatures will initially come up several
degrees through the morning so expect precip may start as a little
light rain or a rain/snow mix near the I-95 corridor with mainly snow
to the north and mainly rain farther south. However since the low
now looks to track of the coast of Virginia passing to our east off
the NJ coast this will help lock in colder N/NE winds. In addition,
dynamic and evaporational cooling effects will take hold as the
precipitation intensifies through the afternoon so expect that any
mixing at the onset will change over to snow, heavy at times, across
the I-95 corridor by the second half of the afternoon. Farther south
towards the coast, rain and mixing will last longer but even here it
should change over to a period of mostly snow by the early evening.
The heaviest precipitation looks to occur between roughly 4 and 9 PM
during which time snowfall rates could reach or exceed 1 inch per
hour as the snow falls heavy at times to do to strong forced ascent.
Heading into the latter part of the evening into the overnight, snow
will wind down SW to NE as deepening low pressure continues tracking
NE towards Cape Cod. By the time all is said and done, expect
snowfall amounts of generally 4 to 6 inches near the I-95 corridor
with 6 to as much as 9 inches north of here. South of the I-95
corridor in a swath heading from central Delmarva into southern NJ
extending NE towards coastal Monmouth County, generally expect 2 to
4 inches. South of here across our southernmost counties in Delmarva
extending towards Atlantic City NJ and points south, generally
expect 1 to 2 inches or less.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Happens every year, doesn't it? Looks like it warms up again by next weekend. I'll be hibernating in my cave here, making a push to complete the 1970 aerials so I can move on to the next project! 
Took a 3 mile walk around town and the roads looked okay but we slipped multiple times in places that looked fine. The town was starting to salt but using it sparingly.
Looking at the photos you posted recently - also the ones that @M1 Abrams posted today - we really have a lot more snow on the ground down here than you have in the central Pines. We still have snow from the last big storm, although a lot melted yesterday in the mid 40's. If those estimates are right, you'll get more snow in the North this time while we have less in the South.
Nothing at all here, not even rain, just dark and cloudy skies. Went out for a walk a little while ago. Looks like the storm hasn't moved much farther East than Philadelphia so far. But the day is still young!
1st a layer of ice, then few inches of snow. Not looking for to cleaning off and vehicles. I'm hoping the doors aren't frozen shut.
Yeah, pretty, but essentially a nuisance snow here. 1/2" I think. I'm in Manahawkin now.
