CranberryWX Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Out with dog and it is nasty, 32 and freezing rain, deck railing starting to ice up. Sidewalks and street still wet. I don't think I have ever witnessed a change over to freezing rain while it was raining as hard as this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah usually the latent heat release can over power any antecedent cold, but in this case cold is in full force and getting replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CranberryWX Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 All sleet now as the temp dropped a few decimals below 32, but coating of ice on cold surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mailman Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Mesoscale Discussion 0025 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0604 PM CST Fri Jan 12 2018 Areas affected...Portions of southeastern OH...WV...western MD...PA...NY...VT...and northern NH Concerning...Winter mixed precipitation Valid 130004Z - 130600Z SUMMARY...An initial transition from rain to freezing rain, then to sleet and snow will occur this evening as a cold front moves eastward. DISCUSSION...23Z surface analysis shows a cold front extending from northern VT into central NY/PA, and then continuing into western MD and WV. The cold front will develop generally east-southeastward through 06Z, with the 32F surface isotherm lagging the initial wind shift by about 90-100 miles. A mid/upper-level trough/low centered over KY/TN will continue moving east-northeastward this evening. Large-scale lift associated with the upper trough/low has promoted a broad area of mostly light to moderate precipitation from WV northward to NY. Recent surface observations and local storm reports indicate a relatively narrow corridor of freezing rain is occurring along/behind the surface freezing-line intersection with the ongoing light/moderate rain. Freezing rain rates of at least several hundredths of an inch per hour will be likely, with rates up to 0.10 inch per hour possible in the heaviest showers. These higher rates appear more likely across northern PA into south-central NY over the next few hours as an area of moderate to locally heavy rain moves across this region and surface temperatures fall below freezing. A transition to sleet and then snow will occur as a residual low-level warm nose centered around 900-750 mb quickly erodes with the approach of the mid/upper level trough/low. Some of the snow may become heavy at times, with rates around 1 inch per hour, especially across western PA/NY into southeastern where this transition to snow is already occurring. ..Gleason.. 01/13/2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still above freezing in the south hills I hear ya. If we can get that last push of cold air before all the good precip in W.V. gets here, we'll likely be ok. It's gonna be close though, I'll definitely be stepping away from the screen at times. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeB_01 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Actual sounding (valid 00z) vs 18z Nam (valid 00z) vs HRRR (valid 00z) NAM was a better snow for us, but the HRRR profile looks closer to the actual sounding. However, it looks like the Nam has some warmer air aloft than the HRRR. More evidence to support an interesting night indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
