A moderate to heavy snow/sleet mixture is now occurring here. The warm layer aloft must be very thin as the heavier precipitation is causing the warmth aloft to erode away via evaporational cooling while the WAA works against it by bringing in more warm air. Eventually the WAA will win, but we'll see how long we can keep it mostly snow.

Well, that didn't take long. The WAA won out despite some heavy precip. Just a pelting sleet storm out there right now, oh well. I was hoping we'd get parachutes for a little while before the sleet took over. Next...

 

A little over an inch here at the Pit.  Had some really nice aggregates for a while.  Going between good flakes and meh flakes now, but coming down hard regardless.  Heading off to bed--pretty sure I'll be awakened shortly with sleet off the windows.  In the meantime, it looks really purty out there.

 

28.4/27
