Ji Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I would take a couple inches of sleet though...might stick around longer and survive the deluge this really sucks. It went to sleet way to soon..probalby cost us 3-4 inches of snow. Euro had 850 temps dropping a bit before rising and turning to rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Sleet making it look pretty, wish we got a little more snow before changeover but sleet is good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 On the road toGA and getting snow showers on 270. Not sure we where the change to rain will occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Why were you assuming the warm layer was right at 850? We can't see euro thermal profile it's possible there is a warm layer above 850. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ger Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Ugh-- sleet now on Capitol Hill. I hate the "ping" it makes. It have way too many bad memories of incessant pinging I had to deal with during in mid-afternoon thru evening hours on January 3, 1996. Easily caused Upper Marlboro at least 6" of snow.

aldie 22 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 i guess NAM was right:( nam was mostly rain....somewhere in the middle is right...two winter events in three days that both accumulated in December around Christmas...not too bad. you need to be more about the results and less about what could have been. I know that is hard for you but it sure helps me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Sleet picking up in intensity again/a lot less liquid than before. Temp is 29.1. Surprised this morning when I went to be at around 12:30 am and it was still about 42 with dp at 33. Looked at obs further north and east and noticed the dp's were dropping through the 20's, wondering if the dry air would get here in time....it did. It's a win, in my book. Looking ahead to Saturday.

Same here in Clarksburg. 0.2" of snow then the quick changeover to IP and mostly FZRN. Temp is holding steady at 28.1F. Changeover took less than 3 minutes.

Wasnt it off compare to the WB right by your place in the Christ mas eve storm? I dont think it is going to be that big of a deal here, if I was say in Round Hill in that pocket there where the cold air gets trapped and tougher to scour out, then I would feel better. But heck even this little snow and sleet event is sweet for me. Two wintry events in 2 days , not bad for our area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
