BooneWX Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I’ve never seen a wedge this stout, or at least that I can remember. Despite precip since yesterday afternoon, I still haven’t reached full air saturation. I have enough separation still between the DP and temp that I could wiggle down more. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNC_Fort Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Seems we’re at the point where if there’s radar returns overhead, I’m sleet. If there’s nothing on radar, I’m light drizzle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Very heavy sleet right now. Heaviest I have seen so far at any point in this storm. Still, hardly any glaze to speak of in the trees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 If we can stay sleet under heavy returns all day, we’re in for a treat. That thump later this afternoon will be very heavy. Might push 3-4” of sleet for many of us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernest T Bass Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Pretty heavy sleet at times, and enough drizzle for a light glaze on everything. But trees don't look bad yet just kinda frosted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I gain a few tenths of a degree in heavy bands but as soon as it slacks I take a step back. What a wedge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNC_Fort Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Like I said earlier. So far, every heavy band is sleet and the light is freezing drizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernest T Bass Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 In case folks wondered if we could still wedge old school CAD, yes we can. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I'm up to 25.5. Still rounds of sleet and light ZR. It will be close to freezing here later I think when the heavy line comes through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I'm beginning to wonder if my weather station being encased in ice is making faulty readings. It says 29.7 now despite much colder readings all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I think it's close to right. My old mercury thermometer on the shed says 30. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
