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.
Glad you said that. I didn't mean to clean the whole snowboard at ~920am, but then I sort of leaned on it and boom, it was cleaned off. But that was a reasonable enough time for the transition.
@high risk your 13-14z call for the mix time was spot on. Was about 1330z for MBY. But this mix of sleet and needles is interesting. Visibility is way lower than normal for a predominant sleet precipitation event. I'm curious how this will accumulate. I think @csnavywx and @Terpeastwere suggesting we're getting snow to crystallize below the inversion to mix with the sleet that's coming from higher up?
We're in a little subsidence area looks like based on radar. Snow sounds icy against the window. Might go back and forth like the NoVA folks are getting.
