On Sunday morning, we finally received our first winter weather event here in Charleston this year (the second one this season), but even it failed to give us our first 1"+ snowfall of the season. However, with temperatures at the start of the event in the upper 20s, the snow initially stuck to the roads. The off-and-on moderate snow lasted for over two hours, from around 6:30AM to 9AM, before changing to a fluctuating sleet/freezing rain combination which lasted the remainder of the afternoon. Temperatures rose steadily all day, and by evening we were well above freezing with most of the snow cover already melted away.

Here are some frame grabs of the action here in Charleston yesterday morning:
