Storm At Sea Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 If you have Weathertap, you can actually see the transition line between SN and PL. It appears that the transition line is now in a line from Trenton, NJ to Dover, DE.====I am not talking about the Winter mosaic either. You can subtly tell as the areas of higher reflectivity drop by several decibles. Also, for a quick wx hx factoid----It's nights like tonight why NOAA changed the abbreviation of sleet from PE to PL (older obs would read as RA PE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Well sleet does accumulate and it creates a nice layer of ice on top of the snow, which can be hazardous. The shoveling will not be easy with this storm because it's a heavy wet snow with a layer of ice. I just hope we change to snow soon, I'll take a snow event rather than a sleet storm.

jm1220 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 My lights are flickering and power's out across the street from me. Just an incredible last 10 minutes, even though it was IP. The ground whitened up again in that timeframe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEXtreme Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 sounds about right with the good stuff, maybe 3. That gives a good 6 or so hours of nice heavy banding snows. 1/2 inch an hour and thats 6 - 10 locally better. Most mets including Craig Allen say snow will end around or just after 4am in the city. Steve D just said around 5 am & 3am in the Philadelphia area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
