today so far.. looks like a weather day

out at 7am.. no beach today.... over to Little River Post Office to drop off some mail.. as I was leaving the house a mix of sleet/rain.. lasted for about a half hour if that... no slippery roads..  looks like the ice storm we were supposed to get in the forecast bypassed us to the east and stayed offshore and is hitting the Outer Banks this afternoon ..

unfortunately another much larger storm is headed up our way from Texas and the southwest..mostly snow ...expected to get blasted later today..

UPDATED 900pm
freezing rain started falling early this evening... right now we are getting freezing rain/sleet mix with just about everything covered in ice  trees.. bushes.. plants.. should be a real mess by early morning..
