Yes the LV has been burned many times Duncan892 with warm nose intrusions, but that is to be expected in the LV, but not this time. The Quebec high is too strong. The sleet line will be around th eMid Montgomery Bucks lines on the other side of the S mtn range. If we do get any ice, it will be sleet mixed in with the heavier bands of snow or freezing drizzle. This only comes with experience with doing this for 40+ years and seeing every historical pounding snowstorm the LV has received since 1983 most infamous dumping where we got 5" inches in one hour and ended up with 23 inches.

They should change the map title to 'expected snowfall and sleetfall' (is that even a word?)

^No. That's freezing rain, not sleet. Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro XL using Tapatalk

thats why its a good idea to remove the snow from driveways and sidewalks before the sleet causes an issue - and it will be easier to do because this will be falling when most are awake

@weatherwiz do any of these work for you? I forgot this guy’s page even existed https://www.wxcaster.com/isentropic.htm

The 12z long-range HRRR is a thing of beauty. Would pay big bucks for this to verify, unlikely as that is

WB HRRR at range 7am Sunday

I believe this is meant to depict freezing rain ETA: ninja’d

No that is freezing rain

I lived in Austin for a year. Its like anywhere else, it can get cold but wait a few days and it's back to normal. I would never live anywhere further north in texas.

No, this is the sleet

HRRR at hour 48

I think messaging from WLOS/WYFF could be stronger. Think most local emergency offices are putting out strong messages on social media. But, there’s information overload on FB. I think people see confusion and just take it as no one knows. I think messaging needs to be stronger on the power outage likelihood and the cold that follows

I realize everyone is focused on this weekends storm and for good reason, but the cold could be more historic. NYC has a possibility of breaking the longest streak of below 32 temperatures. Also looks like January will be the coldest in at least 10 years.

Hopefully you lived in Hamden in Feb 2013 for the 40 inches. My sister sent me this from her apartment there.

Is Florida or Michigan more of a snow desert or are they similar?

It's beautiful...for a D9 storm.

Sleet also melts more slowly than snow, given its much lower surface area per volume ratio.

Daily Mail is the NYP on steroids.

If you want to experience less of a selection and empty shelves in some stores - some people think they have to stock up for weeks - actually if its only going to be a foot or so and most of it falls Sunday before late evening - there should be little trouble on the roads Monday - the equipment they use nowadays is much more efficient then years ago and easier to remove when there won't be much traffic on the roads

When I requested the foothills get buried the past year, I was requesting snow, not this.

It's going to be interesting if we get into mixing with forecast high temps for Sunday only in the upper teens to maybe 20 out this way.

12Z HRRR just through 7AM Sunday.
