This is losing whatever significant freezing rain signature it ever had. Baro. quickly falling into more of a sleet range, dewpoints still quite low though, parent low further west than the events that give DC proper serious icing.

 

:huh:

 

The warm layer in the 12z NAM soundings was pretty thick... almost down to the surface... perhaps a smidge of sleet at the very beginning, but ending quickly.

So, I need to recommend by 3:30pm whether or not we pre-treat our HOA neighborhood in Rockville this evening. The forecast makes it sound as if not much is expected in these parts.  Any thoughts?   

Looking at the latest Nam 18z yes you should do it if people will be on the roads before 9 am.

Do you have salt to waste, or is it the last of your depot?

But light is good ( if you want a real ice event )

yeah, tho some of the local area is showing less precip overnight than forecasts for ice... so even if you end up losing some in heavier you'd still maybe end up with more.  less an issue further north perhaps as it's more consistent up there.
