KyleEverett Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I'm feeling lucky so far in Lancaster, roads are totally white but grass is barely dusted. I don't know when things are supposed to fill in later today still. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re building a glacier but I’ll take a ground glacier over the alternative. Yeah and some were saying the CAD wouldn't be this strong yesterday... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow dog Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Is it possible that the last squal line will be so heavy that it will at least limit the ability of the freezing rain to accumulate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstr4j Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 18 minutes ago, Tony Sisk said: Here is my thinking, and I could be totally wrong. This high pressure is very strong. It slowed the moisture a lot. So much so that it has given the pacific moisture time to catch up with the gulf moisture. If you look to the west, the precip looks heavier. The flip side, the CAD came in stronger….and it has set it. This afternoon is going to be a doozie, IMO. Heavy freezing precip. @Tony Sisk Yea, I agree with that - i guess i meant to say i see how it happens, I just didnt think upper levels would hold through CAD like the lower levels would. Learn something new every storm...but that low is getting close so one would think the change over is soon - if upper levels hold through this Ill have a new perspective on how powerful CAD can be 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think so...seems lime of those scenarios on the escarpment that if its heavy rain it will be less effective on power outages and if it isn't heavy can probably stay sleet.

Adding up fast as are the power outages. One of those shitty but gorgeous pictures 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow dog Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Yeah- I don’t care about the roads; can deal with staying off of them for a day or two. It’s the trees and power lines that have my attention.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthboundYank Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 49 minutes ago, NorthHillsWx said: Funny how this went from 10+” of snow to a crippling ice storm to what in all likelihood looks like 1” of sleet with a glaze aka just a travel stopper Yeah. Your truthful comment made me LOL, as a lot of folks in the Carolinas and GA were put on very high alert this past week by some of the prettiest TV "mets" and the dime-a-dozen hobbyist wx nerds on FB. Related to your comment and true to form, the DC/MD/VA forum is currently bemoaning their sleetfest resulting in only several inches so far up there, after being forecasted most of this previous week to receive 12-18"....and NoVA (and many others, likely) are about to flip over to ZR within next hour or two. As I've been "burned and learned" over the decades, I now realize..."know your climo." 41 minutes ago, SUNYGRAD said: I hope I hear thunder with frontal band today, so I can get really excited for the next storm and the snow within 10 days. Hear, hear!! Mets have kept the thunder chances in the forecast for our area and continue to emphasize that it's a decent possibility later. Definitely wanting that. Currently 30/28 here in southern Myrtle, with a heavy drizzle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAP Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I'm in East Cobb, GA near Roswell. We got below freezing just after midnight. 31 degrees now. We have 1/8-3/16" of ice that accumulated. A few small branches down from the wind/ice but nothing major. Road, sidewalks and driveways are all fine. It doesn't look like we will get much more before the rain comes in this afternoon.

Ander Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Laughing at wral trying to spin it that they weren't totally wrong across the board. From crippling ice storm reporting until overnight last night to now still a second wave coming to it likely will be a wintry mix in that second wave to it will be windy tomorrow but there will be no freezing cold Armageddon Tuesday or Wednesday and instead it will approach forty and be sunny. It never fails living here. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
