mackerel_sky Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Yes! Sleetmageddon has commenced. Sitting here watching big sleet hit the powder snow on a neighbors car.

kvegas-wx Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Never in my life.......this is insane! Cue the interstate rescues in 3,2,1.....now! (My idiot wife being one of them) Looks like I will fire up the ATV and head out to I-40 in an hour or so. She has been sitting just east of winston for 2 hours now. Not moving.

Jalba Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Finally seeing an increase in the flakes size, seems to be mod snow now. Guessing we have about 1.5" or so already down. Hoping it starts picking up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a flash of March 93. You're lucking out. All sleet here with a few flakes mixing in. It could be because the radar is very light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt4pack Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Well I'm here in Raleigh and it looks like I'll be spending the night in the office. Gave up, parked the car, and walked back. Better here then stuck in the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 21, Moderate Snow. Not quite as heavy as the ridiculous (2"/hr?) rates earlier, but it's still hammering and we've got around 24 hours of storm left. Last measurement was between 3.5"-4" and that's been about 20 minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackerel_sky Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Nice pivot of precip in NGA , SC and up into NC. I'm right in the middle. Should be long duration event, too bad it's turned into a sleet event. Maybe go back to snow later? Who knows. 26 degrees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flotownsc Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Brad P stated that what you see south of Charlotte should start pivoting and we should start seeing our returns come from our east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysum Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Here in the Upstate of SC it will take days for this to melt. With the continued sleet coming down and creating a base, the snow will really hang around, once it changes back, I hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
