Yep.

Maybe this storm was a precursor of things to come. 

Still looks like strong winds Monday into later Tuesday.

I was just out using a spading shovel to chop through it making progress...but a very long way to go yet.

Crap is like cement. A plastic shovel doesn't stand a chance trying to clean up this crap.

Looks like a half inch of sleet on the ground here.

Sleet and freezing rain here. Temp 27 dp 20

Started sleeting about 10 min ago.

Temp here 28.6 dp 16

Wow, they are truly delusional & living in fantasy land! 

Glad DT brings us back to reality.

Change to what? 

To flurries and sprinkles.

I wonder if the forecast will change again till tomorrow morning?

Wow I’m in zone 3 that is calling for 3-6”  I’ll take it but high doubts. 

I doubt it too. That map conflicts with the NWS.

Merry Christmas everyone!

12z 12km NAM has no snow for many but a pure sleet-fest. Impressive with temps in the mid-20s

Any freezing rain?

Sleet bombs bring back some pretty core childhood memories around this area. It's a mid 90's throwback kinda December!

I remember the sleet bomb in the early 80s The forecast was sleet changing to rain. But the sleet never changed to rain. The sleet accumulated 6". That was something to shovel.

not sure bout yall's back yards, but mine has a notable permafrost layer that the top layer thaws during the day, but is resolidified at night.  I'm guessing this may factor into  CTP's forecast concerns  for the ZR/Ip that may fall, as it may have some "stickage".  Eveni if it doesnt verify, its good on them to hoist the warning flags due to travel concerns.  Good on them, even if "they are wrong, they are getting it right for traveler awareness as this one is sneaking in the backdoor so to speak.  

If we get that sleet with freezing rain on top of that...that will turn into cement with temps below freezing.
