VD and St paddy's day 07 both featured 5-6" of sleet where I lived in Queens. Absolutely epic. Trillions of frozen ball bearings were a nightmare for plows.
I'd hope that verifies. Id take 3 or 4".
Usually kuchera maps are overdone but in this case probably not? Is kuchera ratios capped? Some could get 25:1+
Looks like I'll be right on the line of 3 or 4" or a decent event this weekend, then in the icebox. -5° is much easier to embrace when there's deep snowpack. Pointless cold doesn't really do it for me unless it was wildly extreme.
