after 1:00 this morning, and as you can see on the road behind me we're seeing an accumulation, passible are some areas, some hilly areas that some larger trucks are having a hard time getting up and so they're telling people, if you don't have to be out on the roads, stay at home. it's also a similar scene in charlotte. slightly lower elevation than ashville, but much larger city, so a big concern that officials well be keeping an eye on as the winter storm passes through the southeast. >> these are areas that don't normally see this. i'm curious to know what else they're doing in the southeast? >> reporter: some of the small towns in higher elevations are seeing the heaviest snowfall but a lot of the concern is the giving are cities. cities like atlanta which may not witness the worst part of the storm, but it's such a big population center, and also local officials have been burned by a winter storm in the past, and so they're taking no chances. they closed government offices, mid-day. they started releasing students from public schools on a staggered basis. the idea was to keep as ma

spots as it is at the intersection of six forks at millbrook, but overall the roads at least are passible now bridges is a different story because the air temperatures are below freezing, we have cold air surrounding bridges and it freezes much more efficiently than surface, but what's saving us for the surface roads are the fairly warm soil temperatures in the mid to upper 30s so now the precipitation has come to a little bit of a temporary end in the triangle area what was on the ground is now getting warmed up by those soil temperatures melting and we're just seeing wet conditions but as we again underscore things will change later this morning. wanted to share a picture one of our followers at wral traffic using the wral snow hash tag send us this picture of mcgregor hall in henderson in vancex county where they saw quite a bit of snow and as elizabeth and amy have been telling us as you head north and wet of the triangle along the border counties bordering virginia you'll see higher snow amounts and a lot less in the way of that melting we're seeing in the triangle right now. we'll k
