I have only seen sleet accumulate more than a coating once, that was in mid-90s in northern Virginia. Surface air temps were in low 20's entire time, got about 4" sleet. I don't think we'll see quite that much here, but could come close.
You know something has gone sideways when storm thread SILENT less than 72 hours from GO-time.
Cant wait to lose power and skate down my driveway Sunday afternoon.
I asked this question in SE forum...but is this the type of setup where Winston/Greensboro, NC would do about same as DC snow-wise? Trading latitude for elevation and distance from water...
Where would have the better chance of let's say 6-8" SN before mixing?
