Jmister Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Walking to campus, I felt some light rain with a few sleet pellets thrown in there. To me, that's a big signal for mainly ice here in central PA as opposed to sleet. Temperature here at Walker is 27.5 and very slowly creeping up. The only thing that could make us see mainly sleet is strong upward motion that would cool some of the upper level warmth, and evap cooling to an extent (though with the air already saturated this likely will not play a big role).

sauss06 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Clouds are thinning a bit here, so that's probably why it's warming a bit. I hate plain rain in the winter. I hope it's cold enough for an ice storm. i understand it was 25 at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

State College and most of the I-80 corridor is probably going to be the battle zone, with freezing rain mixing/changing to sleet when the precip gets heavy. But I would agree, SC probably gets more freezing rain than sleet. We likely will see some evap cooling when the precip starts falling again tonight since the air may try to dry out a bit with the lack of precip this afternoon/evening.

The Iceman Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I hate new threads in the middle of an event yeah but now is actually a good time because no way the mods would let this go through the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 yeah but now is actually a good time because no way the mods would let this go through the night. Not only that, but it IS a two part event. If it were one continuous event, I'd have tried to keep the original thread going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
