So I am flying home yesterday afternoon and we come in over land over Cape Hatteras.  As we move inland, in clear of cloud areas, I can see white fields below.  I didn't realize the cotton fields were ready for picking so early in the year....

I guess the sporatic snowfall across the state could resemble cotton fields.

LOL, not sue if that cotton could be spun into yarn though?! =)

I would love to be back in Currituck County. Yes that is what the OBX is in my name.

I didn't see a single snowflake on Thursday, but I got a text from my Mom that said "it's snowing". Nothing made it to the ground here. But the farther east you went, the more saturated the air was. So I'm sure some of the snow made it to the ground along the coast on Friday morning. Another thing that could be mistaken for snow from above would be Bradford pear trees. They are blooming everywhere around here b/c of the warm temperatures lately. I'm sure mine looks like a giant cotton ball to all of the planes flying overhead!

Our forecast is to get some snow Sunday night/Monday morning. Since it should cause any issues with travel or power, I'm fine with that. It would be nice to see one last snowfall if it doesn't affect anything. I just hope that will be the last one for Winter 2018.

No more snow until at least December please!

... and from the "Great White North" where it truly is white after receiving our second Nor'easter in the past three days. Best guesstimate puts our three day snowfall total at nearly 60cm. ( =24") and only another 6 inches (15 cm) in the forecast mid week coming . Yay , only another month and it should all be gone!

New Brunswick, yup now there is somewhere where they know snow!!! LOL. Welcome to the site and Happy Belated Birthday!! I myself and a GWN member. But I am a land locked fool, as everyone here will tell you. SK kid here, light on the kid now a days but hey we can still act the part.

Did you fly over the Great Dismal Swamp ?

I don't think I would recognize it from the air without a map. I have driven through it though.
