1" snow, bout 1.5"-2" sleet, total around 3" so far. Ripping sleet

Incredible how much more precipitation you are getting there wow on the sleet. I had some bursts but didnt last long

 

I am noticing the sleet is ever so slowly sandblasting the snow off the trees here  :lol: three more hours of sleet would help considerably before the ZR gets here

Noooo VD 07. I actually loved that storm. 5" of sleet with 2" sugar coating of snow on top. Never seen it sleet that much.
