This setup screams north trend to me. North and probably east trend unfortunately.

January 24-26: Miracle or Mirage JV/Banter Thread!
WxUSAF replied to SnowenOutThere's topic in Mid Atlantic
This. I scraped with the metal shovel while my wife and son came behind with the snow shovels. Brutal work for only about a half inch of caked sleet -
Had very light flurries earlier while shoveling
-
I was about to post that the ridge axis out west suggests this would be a coast scraper ( @CAPE always gets a Nina Rehobeth beach storm). But these last couple runs have been inching that back giving this shortwave JUST enough room.

~2” liquid at all 3 airports. We actually overperformed by a healthy amount.

1/25: 9.5” 13.8” season total
-
9.5” is my final spotter report. And I reported a trace of ZR/FZDZ. Crusty out there. Really hard to walk through the yard
-
6.8” I think. Haven’t seen IAD or RIC
-
Holy shit BWI reported 11.1”! I got my ass kicked by BWI!!
-
9.4”. Been consistently getting 0.3”/hr or more of sleet for like 9 hours. Two more hours to hit 10” total. Insane!
-
Yeah I’m done for today. We’ll see how hard tomorrow is to move what’s left.
-
Are you measuring to the individual diameter of a sleet grain?? How are you getting the ten-thousandth place!?! lol
-
Still 90-95% sleet but my mist of snow is maybe now a mist of drizzle? Temp has dropped back 1-2F. Now 23.
-
9” and counting. Figured I had no chance at double digits when I flipped to sleet around 830-9am, but maybe? Lol. Already 3” of sleet. Bonkers. It’s turning into big chunks when you try and shovel it. Temp has jumped up past 24 in the last hour.
-
Thats not even close to ZR
-
8.4" official spotter report. Cleared off the sleet board. Still getting a lot of very small needles with the sleet. Very cool storm unless you realize how much snow we'd be getting if this wasn't sleet...

Lol wish I knew. I’m tapped out too -
Doubt Norrisville ever turned to sleet. Expect they’re pushing 16” by now?
-
7.7” total. Not quite to 2” of sleet but should get there in another hour-ish
-
7.2" total. 0.3" sleet last hour.

Been wondering about this. Huge scale is going to push it up the NESIS scale. -
@wxmvpete spot on here with NAM getting the mix timing pretty well. But under doing precip before changeover.
-
0.4" of (mostly) sleet last hour (seems like a lot!). 6.9" total snow+sleet. eta...need another 0.4" to mark my 3rd biggest snowstorm in 11 winters in this house. Top 2 (Jan 2016 and Jan 2019) are safe.
