GATECH

If we get a HECS while you are in Houston, I foresee many future trips there for you…I’ll set up the ‘go fund me’ now!

Add 24 inches and it will match the gfs!

I feel like we have all gathered to watch a train wreck…live.

Keep March 2001 out of your mouth....or I am sending Will Smith! I was getting Feb 9-10 2010 vibes....

So March is going to March....Like it does every year....since the dawn of time....

You lost all credibility when you said “gfs…and I bet it’s right.”

Excellent idea! If I only had water to make coffee or hot chocolate! But they will get the thanks for sure!

I thought you were retired!

Commence water main breakage and pothole season! Water main just broke on our street, bye bye water for a bit! And many baby potholes were born today, fun times ahead!

This! The compaction was quick. One hour into the heavy sleet I had lost about .5 inches of snow depth. Depending on when/if they cleared their board can easily explain the lower than expected report. Also if you really examined the sleet, I did of course because I (aren’t we all) am a weather nerd, it was watery and was very diverse in size, which was surprising to me. Smallish sleet pellets seemed to dominate, at least in my yard. I am about 13 miles due south of DCA, just about on the river so similar, except we have trees instead of concrete. My final tally was 8.5”, but I cleared my measuring area soon after the sleet started and then every 6 hours ish

Yeah no. It’s a death trap out there. Had to rescue our dog in the backyard because he had no idea how to walk on a sheet of ice.

28.6….glaze getting serious. At least .1”. Hard to measure…have a metal railing where I usually measure…down several steps….don’t want to break my neck.

Perhaps a weird transient shower/sprinkles thing. You can see the actual drops where they froze. On cars, and fence…maybe birds just pissed overhead….

Bad news, in this crazy band moving through noticed glazing on the car. First time seeing this.

Seeing more oranges on the radar…curious what’s under those…ice cubes?

Sleeting so hard it sounds like bacon sizzling

5.0 of snow sleet. Snow board is useless, everything just bounces off!

Cool watching the sleet just pour/roll down from the roof across the gutter guard and onto the ground. Getting a nice berm surrounding the house…I know where I will be measuring for now on! 12”-14” in the bag if I measure there! Screw the snowboard!

Yes. All of the above.

The most disappointing thing about sleet is how it destroys your snow measurement. Had 3.5” fluff at7am…down to 3” of sand now. Couple more hours of sleetfest 2026 and hopefully I can report 5” to LwX…pouring down sleet. Neighbor kids went out to play in it, they lasted about 3 minutes after determining that they couldn’t make snowballs or a snowman, and the stuff hurts! Sledding will be epic tomorrow though! Even our dog Thunder, who loves snow wanted nothing to with this crap! Fastest trip out to pee in years. Temp 16.

Mainly sleet now…bummer would have like to seen the SN+ in the daylight

3.5” at 640. 16 degrees, pouring snow , but flakes at rimmed and getting louder…coffee brewing, bottle of bourbon cream ready to fortify for when the sleet arrives.

New York City-13 Boston-18 Philadelphia-0 no snow for you! Seriously though 12 Washington DC-8 Hartford-17 Albany-16

Absolutely! In the lates 80s had a sleet bomb in Atlanta that produced about 5 inches of sleet. It’s interesting to watch it poor off roofs, it behaves like a liquid and piles up.

Nice sunset this evening!
