gfs should never be trusted when it comes to thermals. warned about this.

I guess I jinxed it when I said no one in the 5 boroughs is reporting sleet

@Hoth You were right about eyes freezing - finished the run looking like a snowman. I’m sure all the drivers passing us snow runners think we’re mental lol

Still pouring sleet out there. 20.6 degrees. Suprised how much wind there is today, especially near the water. Wasn't expecting that.

Anyone in the 20s for this next line is in for some serious ice. Obs out of Tenn are not good.

Wind picking up here. Heavy snow. 16 degrees.

Tiny ice balls are floating around like mist still

This is quite the non-Tennessee valley storm.

Coming down good in Melrose

That’s when the real outages will start.

Just measured…started at 7:45, and almost 6 hrs later, we have 6” on the dot. Gonna rock.

Yes. Quality of the flakes is doodoo.

5.5" of snow and 2.5" of whatever this sleet/graupel/snow mixture is = 8". It's coming down heavy and it's not pleasant to be in. I remember back in the day sometimes the Weather Channel would use "Unknown Precip" to designate a mix. Applies.

apparently there was some thunderZR at 27F near Charlotte. heavy sleet here in NW Philly, currently 19F. still some huge disagreement on how high the temps get this evening, I've seen everything from 24 to 35 in various models/forecasts...we'll see what verifies

25.2 here.

Almost all sleet now, Flatbush.

Helene at one point could have been considered one outage.

That's encouraging...I guess.

Dare I say… best rate & flake size now in Marysville!

Just realized it's gonna be "giant sheets of ice and snow flying off car tops at speed" season. Been a while!

Wow, what a comeback this would be! I have been POUNDING sleet for the last couple hours. I'll get another measurement when and if the snow starts back up here. Just made the wife and I some orange crushes, let the fun begin!

Mostly snow again in Lebanon after a 90 min sleet-fest intermission .

Hair finally thawed out from freezing during the shoveling.

This is what is making me nervous.

Thanks for posting it, well at least 8" is a lock there.
