I can dream that the low track is a bit east and we go to snow at some point. Any chance we can flip to snow during heavier bursts here in ENY?

Friend in Colrain just texted and they started as mostly sleet w/ some flakes mixed in and they are at 1100'. I'm guessing same at MPM's house.

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I don't remember if it was 2012 or 2013 but we had an early April event that was moderate sleet for hours. Probably 1"-1.5" in 4 or 5 hours and roads were horrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah was just about to say this. It'd be great to have if this was late March and the BL was the issue but we're all at the mercy of the ML tongue for this one. This one is all about latitude.

Dan Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Still snowing here. Too bad it wasn't a bit colder. Snowing on and off since 7am with 1" to show for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like dragging my feet through it when we get 3-4" of it. It's like sliding through salt or sugar. It's a bit of a b**ch to cleanup though. Yeah, it's like a glacier if you don't get to it quickly. Have been in 2 big sleet storms and 1 of those was followed up by temps near zero. Nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 There's sleet mixed in but lots of aggregates too. Right on the line. It will probably pound all snow if we increase the lift just a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why others didn't bite. because most are rip and read, or pick a model and verbatim forcast... good call Ryan... about 80/20 PLSN here...man, if the column was all below freezing, this would be a great noreaster, nice sustained winds, with gusts, heavy precip...next time I guess....still 30* here and sandblasting...

Yeah I wasn't sure about what to do for you guys... I went 2-6" worried that Hartland or Norfolk could flip to snow and pick up a quick 2" or something on top of the pingers.

Damage In Tolland Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 If we can somehow , some way manage to grab 2+ of sleet, it would probably survive the low - mid 40's torch on Thursday and have white ground for the colder stretch Fri and beyond. I remember that VDay and St Patty sleet pack withstood warmth for quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
