JSTWX Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Since I'm about a 1/2 mile from Albert, I always used his stats. But, it appears he went out of the weather business again Yeah, he told me that he didn't have the $$ anymore. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 The pines around the house are already starting to weigh down pretty good. I can confirm that there are some sleet pellets mixed in here (30 southwest of State College), but mainly a light to moderate zr affair here. The raindrop size continues to be of the smaller type, and thus allow for better tree buildup. There's maybe two good things to report.. my snowcovered gravel driveway which long ago became a skating rink has now become a more epic sled ride than a snow tubing run and I'm probably gonna have some great pictures when this wraps up tomorrow morning.

djr5001 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 From past experience, I'm guessing we already have .15 on everything and building quickly with this light but steady rain at 28.9 degrees. yea from what I managed it's getting close to .2" already... its not coming down so hard it puddles... just hard enough it freezes quick and accumulates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Well this stuff lurking to my southwest ought to be interesting. Maybe a period of more sleet with that band upcoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasternUSWX Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Hahah It's about to go above freezing here. Well that was fun while it lasted. Stay safe you guys in LNS and MDT. I have no idea how you are like 4-5 degrees colder then e either but, I guess there is a first time for everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 yea from what I managed it's getting close to .2" already... its not coming down so hard it puddles... just hard enough it freezes quick and accumulates This is the perfect rain for ice accumulation. I'm off to charge our phones, get out batteries and unplug stuff. See you guys in the morning, hopefully with everyone safe and still warm. ... as I post this a wreck just happened down the street, looks like a car skid into parked cats and kept sliding.

PottercountyWXobserver Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 lol great minds think alike. Bumped up to 29.1 here. At least I'm not the only one who noticed, I mean this storm is almost over for Cleveland, OH wow. I honestly don't see how anyone is going to pick up more than .5" of ZR with how fast this thing is moving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Well this stuff lurking to my southwest ought to be interesting. Maybe a period of more sleet with that band upcoming. Probably.

JamieOber Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Temp really rising, 30.4 now. Doesn't seem to be freezing as much, lots of run off from our roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 More sleet involved currently, perhaps about a 40/60 or so ratio sleet to zr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckyplayer8 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 LOL at the "parked cats" Anyways...I agree with the oh's and ah's at the major dry slot. That got to hurt for those folks expecting the amounts to be written in feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PottercountyWXobserver Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Add in the fact that some locations (Tamaqua and Hazleton) are nearly all sleet, and you may be right. Yeah we started out with ZR drizzle but turned quickly over to plain sleet once the heavier precip cooled the column of air. I mean don't get me wrong, there is still going to be areas that are severely disrupted travel wise, but widespread power outages look unlikely at this point. I'm thinking a generalize .3-.5" of ZR for central PA and like .1-.25" for the northern and other places that are seeing primarily sleet. All I know is most of the models busted for here, with every single one at least gave me an 1" of snow with some giving me 5" before the change over to sleet, well that didn't happen, started ZR/sleet from the getgo, the WAA game in relatively fast with such a fast forward momentum and a slightly more NW track.

Eskimo Joe Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 A steady, light freezing rain with the occasional sleet pellet mixed in. We are really dammed up from 925mb down to the surface here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
