Yes, I noticed Little Rock, Arkansas at 32 degrees at 11:00 AM or so there time with Heavy Snow; in contrast, Taunton, Massachusetts (10 miles west of where I grew up and where the Boston area/southern and eastern National Weather Service office is located [moved from Boston, MA several years ago]) was Fair and 30 degrees.

Latest 12PCN map indicating 3"-6" in eastern Ark.
Many locations, even in Southeast Arkansas (Pine Bluff - 35 Light Snow)

Also looks to be weakening as it heads NE...once it hits the Appalachins most areas will get a 1-3" coat....some locally more.
