The algo is counting all frozen precip as snow. So if the snow map is showing 9", it's not showing 9" of sleet, it's showing 9" of snow. Don't use snow maps in these types of setups (or ever). Go back to the basics to figure out precip type.

Apparently already had it bookmarked but completely missed it. https://weather.gc.ca/verification/monthly_ts_e.html Thanks @forkyfork ***dwd

It's been a year since I've seen a graphic with the icon rated but it's a trash model that the NWS never mentions. Hopefully someome can find it. I still use this link and it doesn't have the icon. https://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/gmb/STATS_vsdb/

The icon on tidbits doesn't have sleet or freezing rain in their algo. They also don't have soundings or mid-level temps as a parameter to look at but what they do have is surface temps so you can see some of that green is not plain rain. Oh and the icon is trash so I'd never give it much thought.

No thanks on a major ice storm. Snow or rain please. Rain seems very unlikely though with such a cold airmass.

@wdrag. We've actually never had the issue of having too many threats in such a short period of time before in this subforum. I had to edit a couple of the topic dates to make it less confusing to the observers/posters. It doesn't feel good to edit or touch your work but I did the best I could. Make a February 18th storm thread when you feel it's time.

Have at it folks.

@wdrag. I need to split to the topics bc it is a bit confusing. We will keep this thread for the 16th threat. I will create a new one for the Valentine's day threat. Any of threat after that, do what you do. You can start an Feb 18th thread if you want. Thanks for everything.
