You wonder if the modeling are on the right track with the low level cold push and frigid surface temps , but not warm enough at midlevels. Maybe they snap the midlevel warmth up vs just frigid entire column. We’ll see what the Euro does.
I’m sure there’s been times, but I cannot recall a storm like this that went from rain to heavy icing. We’ve seen rain to sleet obviously, but I just don’t remember any that stayed as zr after starting as rain
They’ve dumped enough salt this month to start a beach. They are lunatics with salt because of the hills . Thankfully CT did away with sand crap 5 years ago. God did I hate that stuff. It’s a relatively shady neighborhood too. That one sunny area is at the very top of the hill . Probably the only area that gets direct sunlight in the afternoon. This was about 8:00 this morning after I did the driveway.
Huge snower and pack to huge cutter / screamer rains to Maines. I know this doesn’t show that , but if there starts to be ensembles support it’s a big worry
I know there’s been a few.. but it seems like SNE Icestorms in Feb are fairly infrequent. The bigger ones seem to be earlier in the season . Late Nov- into Jan . Of course there was one in Napril in CT a few years ago.
