    8.4" official spotter report. Cleared off the sleet board. Still getting a lot of very small needles with the sleet. Very cool storm unless you realize how much snow we'd be getting if this wasn't sleet...

    Lol wish I knew. I’m tapped out too

    Doubt Norrisville ever turned to sleet. Expect they’re pushing 16” by now?
  4. WxUSAF
    7.7” total. Not quite to 2” of sleet but should get there in another hour-ish
  5. WxUSAF
    7.2" total. 0.3" sleet last hour.

    Been wondering about this. Huge scale is going to push it up the NESIS scale.

    @wxmvpete spot on here with NAM getting the mix timing pretty well. But under doing precip before changeover.

    0.4" of (mostly) sleet last hour (seems like a lot!). 6.9" total snow+sleet. eta...need another 0.4" to mark my 3rd biggest snowstorm in 11 winters in this house. Top 2 (Jan 2016 and Jan 2019) are safe.

    Glad you said that. I didn't mean to clean the whole snowboard at ~920am, but then I sort of leaned on it and boom, it was cleaned off. But that was a reasonable enough time for the transition.

    @high risk your 13-14z call for the mix time was spot on. Was about 1330z for MBY. But this mix of sleet and needles is interesting. Visibility is way lower than normal for a predominant sleet precipitation event. I'm curious how this will accumulate. I think @csnavywx and @Terpeastwere suggesting we're getting snow to crystallize below the inversion to mix with the sleet that's coming from higher up?

    6.5” total. Sleet and needles

    We're in a little subsidence area looks like based on radar. Snow sounds icy against the window. Might go back and forth like the NoVA folks are getting.

    My daughter woke up, bleary-eyed looked out the window, and eyeballed “about 6”?”. Nearly to the tenth! The genes were passed along successfully

    If we can hold back the sleet until ~10am, it's going to be damn close. Past 10am and 8"+ is a near-lock.
  15. WxUSAF
    4.2" at IAD, 4.1" at BWI, and 3.3" at DCA as of 7am
  16. WxUSAF
    1.1" last hour. 5.9" storm total. Dumping.

    Someone wake up @Maestrobjwa to measure so we can end that discussion finally
  18. WxUSAF
    I was wondering this too. I think I'm going to clear at least half the board.
  19. WxUSAF
    4.8”
  20. WxUSAF
    4.8” official 7am spotter report

    Allan (Raleighwx on Twitter) said a lot of central NC stayed sleet most of the night. Maybe a glimpse at our future?
  22. WxUSAF
    Let’s all take a moment to appreciate that it’s 14 FREAKING DEGREES and puking snow
  23. WxUSAF
    Heavy snow meso #blessed
  24. WxUSAF
    By my 7am measurement, I think we’ll be very close to “fuck you nam” territory…yup.
  25. WxUSAF
    Eyeballing 4” with heavy snow. Small flakes but lots of them. Will measure and do a snowboard wipe at 7am.
