WidreMann Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 IP/ZR here. Small pellets. I think it's mostly sleet, but there's a very light glaze beginning to build. Based on the radar, this could be a rough night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Had great sleet showers today but back to freezing drizzle and 26.6F I've been 27 all day. The sleet came in waves this afternoon, and was awesome to watch. It must be a pretty low warm nose because it's been over east Gwinnett all day. Agreed, it was a great afternoon, a rare afternoon of sleet..four hours worth and sometimes falling at quite an impressive rate. In addition to the near 1" I got late night/early morning, I got over 1" this afternoon for a minimum of 2" total sleet with it not done yet. I'll try to get a final measurement later. This is easily the greatest sleetstorm for me since the 1/1988 an 1/1979 storms..so the 3rd greatest I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquawind Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Well I ended up taking a little venture out on the roads and even Interstate 77 with no problems other than it turned to sleet after all dang it! Were in a lull now for the most part. Hoping for the switch back with this next blob. Far from over from the looks of radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxBlue Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 3 inches so far on UNCA campus and quickly rising. 2 inches in past 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQPublic Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Winds are really kicking now. I'm noticing the pingers on the windows quite often when the wind gets going. I'm also very worried about the lack of posts from SC and parts of GA. Must be awful. Also have a co-worker stuck on the road for close to 5 hours.

Shawn Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Ok guys. We here in KCAE have been great actually! Our roads (even South) have been great. The trees and power have been great other than few issues earlier this morning. Now, as soon as I go to my forum and remove the "HECS" wording from it.. that means "historical east coast storm" by the way... the ZR is coming down... it's already at 1/4 inch at least.. and won't stop... in fact the trees are already groaning with the heavy wind. No good. .50 to 1.00 inch is not out of the question if this keeps up all night. Radar is basically really light/empty.. but i currently hear rain hitting my window. With that said; Tony.. I hope you don't stay ZR there man. This sleet accumulation we have down here... if I walk on it now.. no foot prints.. at all.. thats how much ZRDrizzle is falling... and it's supposed to get heavier. I feel like I will most definitely lose power here by morning. The deformation precip is being shown by many models as just straight ZR around these parts.... I really thought I was out of the woods.. and I am to an extent without seeing the 2 inch+ amounts.. but still .50-1.00 is enough to cause major problems.

NEGa Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 ironic - radar in n ga and alabama looks fantastic! tons of moisture and back building. i usually at least have a general idea of what to expect with events like this. however, this time i gotta admit i am scratching my head. as long as whatever is on radar is frozen imby i should be ok. go above freezing and plain rain will get annoyed (mild understatement). i just cant believe we finally had things looking good and about a good a radar image as we could hope for for a winter storm, but the precip types are fluctuating all over the place edited to add: Ok guys.
