No sleet, just rain

Light glaze at the moment--elevated cold surfaces tree limbs, cars... even the porch and deck has a wet not fully frozen glaze look.

Some convective pockets around GSO.

I see the report of Thunder with rain... lol. That dont happen too often around here. Just rain or any sleet?

No, there was nothing frozen during the thunder shower.....just heavy rain.

 

 

Yeah.. one came through here just big fat drops. Really wet things up for a short period, started freezing as soon as the rain let up some.

Small layer of sleet on rooftops, cars, dirt patches etc. with a freezing rain glaze and small icicles on power lines and trees.

Steady sleet and down to 30.8 here.  Expect breaks in precipitation.  That was to be expected.  There should be several waves though.  Deck is solid ice at my house and ice sickles have formed.

Were the models really this bad and off?? This is depressing to see all the heavy moisture stream off to our northwest. Is the isentropic lift supposed to improve any to generate some decent returns on the radar? Blacksburg updated and mentioned nothing about the radar presentation.
