Yep almost 100% ZR

Just ZR here. 22.8

Matched exactly what we have here. Kind of surprising because at the ground it’s been almost all sleet but tree tops beg to differ

There is some ice buildup in the trees here. Maybe 1/10”?

Congrats, happy y’all are getting a good sleet storm

First steady precip since this morning and it is a mix of ZR and IP

@eyewall radar up there looks epic for sleet. Is that still the case?

Would make this a pretty cool event. As is the low 20s and unbelievable sledding aren’t all bad. Actually flurrying again here

If so we’re all gonna have to enjoy it bc that may never happen again

This is the mother of all dry slots

Where is this place you speak of

Worried about yall. Pulling for minimal outages your way

Save this for the archives

Freezing drizzle has finally taken over as predominant precip here. I don’t trust my temp gauge as it is glazed over but it’s reading 22.3

Anyone who thinks this last batch will create an ice storm in areas that have minimal accrual to this point will be wrong. If your area has a decent amount of ice to this point yes it could worsen the impacts. But it’s not going to cause an ice storm in areas without ice. The storm is over from a pure ice storm stance in all areas that didn’t accumulate ice to this point. Heavy line type precip will 1) not accumulate well and 2) not last long enough to cause an ice storm in 3-4 hours. Just not how ice buildup works

I think NE GA ends up as worst ice from the event (NE of ATL)

Not true. Regardless there are only 12,000 customers without power. That’s not all all weather related either

Those are customers out. There are actually only 292 outages now. 1 outage affects more than 1 customer, think a tree falls and it takes out everything downstream

Duke Energy brought in 18,000 workers for storm response and there are 342 total outages in the Carolina’s. Judge this event as you wish, just reporting the numbers

For Raleigh I’d say both: win without an ice storm but bust bc with precip and an over performing wedge this would’ve been an awesome sleet storm

Gotta be one of the strongest wedges we’ve ever seen

Glad I ain’t the only one who saw it lol. Got people saying I’m blind

Temp could be sus. It’s frozen over

We ain’t talking much lol. Gotta stare at my black truck

Anyone thinking this wedge would break- I got news for you
