Sleet is dumb. F$&# sleet.

In Texas we have Big Ass Fans for the porch. Should’ve installed one over the river.

Annnnnnnnd sleet has commenced.

Ground temps are behind the 850/925 rush of warmth. That’s what we are about to experience hence sleet.

Sitting at 24 and mod snow still - I’m about to go outside with blankets and fan the air to hold off sleet

Heavy snow. I busted low. Sleet is very close unfortunately.

Refs just f’d over the cowboys wow

Looks like at least 3” now legit damn neighbor got stuck lol

Heaviest snow if the evening here. I think my 2.9” MDT will fall since the mix is still a few hours away I think.

Looks like I’ve hit 2” but I haven’t gone out to actually measure

Sleet made it through VA quicker than forecast iirc. This system was a bust in parts of Tennessee too for some reason. Difficult storm for mets all along the eastern seaboard. Very odd system. Hopefully I can hang on this mod snow and get 4”

Here is the yellow I am referencing

Yup wow. Lots of sleet out west according to RadarScope them.

If it’s sleet then the atmosphere is all sorts of jacked up lol

Was coming to ask about that. What’s the bright yellows on radar out west?

Nearing 1”. Hoping this is a grower and not a shower storm.

Pretty rare to get snow when it’s in the teens. Doesn’t happen that much for us. Wild this will flip to other things in 6 hours.

Took all of 5 mins for everything to be white after snow started.

Just checked the score - yikes. Hopefully SF-DAL is competitive cause the Steelers are going to get blown out.

Saw that. I’m guessing he had a suicide wish and brought along his wife and child. Glad those two are safe and sound.

Virga ongoing here now. BTW the river is iced over real nice. First time all year.

They addressed this actually in the post I shared on the last page. I personally have no issues with them tweaking forecasts as they go. They’ve onky reply changed MDT 3 times - from 3-7, 3-5 and now 2-4.

It’ll al be scattered when we wake up anyway lol

You’re a bit over my prediction for MDT. I’m going with 2.9”.

I was curious so I asked CTP about why there are no wind advisories. They had a great response: Chris Anderson When there is already a winter storm advisory or warning in effect for an area, there isn't a need/requirement to add another/separate advisory. At the point/time when the other warnings and advisories are/will not be in effect, then a wind advisory is recommended. Looking at the current forecast, this point is still 24+ hrs out for just a handful (3-4) counties. There is still time to discern whether or not the marginal wind gusts (forecast to be right at or just above 40KT) warrant issuance of a stand-alone wind advisory. If forecast confidence in a period of 40+KT gusts remains or increases for these 3 or 4 counties (and for the 3 to 6 hours such conditions might last after the winter headlines expire) we probably will do it. Gusty winds are already mentioned in much of the forecast information we have out there.
