Winter Storm Gianna touched down in North Carolina Saturday, Jan. 31, blanketing the Triangle in a pillowy layer of powdery snow. Some areas of the community got 2 to 3 inches, while others got up to 6. We asked folks to send in their best winter flicks, as well as submitting a few of our own. Here’s our Winter Storm Gianna photo gallery:
