I should have gone back home for that one. Stuck it out in LAF for the sleet storm of the century.

Temp down to 36º on my thermometer. Keep dropping baby...

And now back over to PLRA here. Definitely not cooled down enough yet.

These marginal situations are real nail-biters...never did see the snow here.

If I ever experience that again, I'm done with winter. 4" of ice for weeks on the ground. No thanks.

I'd love for that one to have been all snow for us, but I guess I've never seen that much sleet in one storm. I'll remember it fondly...but hope it never happens again.

Best we've been getting on this side of town is a sleet/rain mix. If we don't make the switch to snow by the 18-19z mark, I'm going to call it quits for 2"+.

Well that's something. It's not pure snow here, but the majority are flakes. Some big ones too, though the intensity remains light. Regardless, I can't see 2"+ either. 1-2" and call it a day.

These types of events stink for trying to get good measurements. What's on the ground will be less than what falls.

We still look to get 0.10-0.20" qpf in the form of snow, hopefully the nighttime will help, as will sfc temps falling to slightly below freezing. but right now, yes, its a flooding mess. Looks like DTW will be at the 3rd wettest year on record by the time this storm ends, behind only 1880 and 1881. With a month to go, #1 is in reach.

I'm interested to see where this sfc low goes. Watching the pressure falls over the past couple of hours it appears the sfc low will track though Eastern PA which would shift the heavy snowband axis dramatically east and the 12z runs of the Euro, GFS, NAM, CMC and UKMET all have it tracking up Lake Erie and Ontario. Of course I have seen in the past where the pressure falls dramatically shift several hundred miles in just a couple hours and the low continues on it's forecasted track.
