Portsmouth Weather Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 It definitely is warmer or moisture is shallower because sleet is mixing in just 10 or so miles from here. They were supposed to stay all snow until the evening Where at? Guess we may be in trouble if that's the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanVA Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Where at? Guess we may be in trouble if that's the case Blacksburg, VA. We're also coming in on the low side of the forecast. Very few dendrites, mostly snow grains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCoWx Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'm beginning to feel Hampton Roads has got a major disappointment on their hands... The air is insanely dry, and we have tons of snow not reaching the ground right now. Also, the aforementioned issue I was not aware of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The air is insanely dry, and we have tons of snow not reaching the ground right now. Also, the aforementioned issue I was not aware of. Way to early to throw in the towel. Snow just getting into the area and things are moistening up nicely. The snow icons are confirmed reports from AWOS stations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeVa Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I wouldn't really worry yet regarding the sleet. Just keep an eye on the critical thickness. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/new/viewsector.php?sector=17&parm=pmsl&underlay=1# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCoWx Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Snowing steady. Really itty bitty flakes, but a LOT of them. Got a good dusting here in 23837 already. There is, unfortunately, small amounts of sleet in it though. You can hear it when you open the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmcwahoo Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Happy with the inch we got but man this makes you think what could have been in Richmond. Accumulated instantly, great ratios, this could have really been a big one with just a little help. Hoping somehow the dry slot fills in and we at least keep some flakes in the air.
