GATECH Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Just out walking the dog, fzdz. Would say already have about .2" of ice on bushes and tree branches from the late afternoon freezing rain and the hours of frdz. Roads are wet with patchy icy sections from where snow earlier gathered (usual shade covered areas). Sidewalks treacherous. Temp 31, Dp 29.

Pityflakes Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Just went out for a bit...roads out here are mostly wet...I assume when traffic stops it may freeze up but even my driveway is just wet. Freezing rain is overrated.... Freezing rain rarely causes icy road conditions unless your area has already been in the deep freeze for a while, and won't tonight for those of you sitting at ~30+. Crashing limbs/downed power lines are another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disc Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Been at 30.5 for quite a bit of time. Still coming down, but I haven't looked to see how much has accumulated. Interesting enough, Boone, NC is still well below freezing. They were 30 for a while and dropped back down. Shows how strong this CAD is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
