Expect to see ice on shrubs soon, but so far they are dry and clear. Weather Underground app calls for precip to end around 8 PM. We can hope! agreed - perhaps the heaviest band of sleet I have seen all day going on now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino16 Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Measured 1/8” of ice here, think the temp is dropping in the area but hard to tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sernest14 Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago This ice is no joke- Left to go pick up brownies for my daughters birthday about 400 yards away- this was when I got back in my car to comeback after I had just cleared it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasnow215 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago It's pouring right now at 22° here in Ashland-I wonder if harder rain makes it tougher for accretion. Does anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know? I just read that it actually is tougher if it's raining more than moderately that a long duration event is more effective to cause issues which I hope this is true 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjammin Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago There are different thoughts on this. It accretes more efficiently at a lower rate but actual accretions may be similar. Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro XL using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino16 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago The SPC MD says 0.05-0.1”/hr. The precip ahead of it seems to have beefed up a bit too, which I don’t like. The crust is nice and shiny though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Down here in Currituck NC. 33/31. TEMPS been steadily going down. Areas just north and West of me by just a few miles are 32 or below already. There's a chance this next batch of rain brings the temperatures up if it's heavy enough but it's getting a little sketchy. No ADVISORY but may be needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCoWx Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago So snow for Pennsylvania againLiterally was about to say that. If we’re in the jackpot right now, another ice storm is coming in a week.

Any weather but pure snow is virtually a guarantee in central and eastern VA. . I think suppression or an OTS track is more likely. We likely have a very strong -NAO and a +PNA ridge centered in the interior west. Seems very different from this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
