ILMRoss Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 copious amounts of sleet now falling in Carysouth beltway is the changeover line I'm thinking. I'm at about 60/40 zr to sleet near tryon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cg2916 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 About 1 in. of sleet in Greenville. Looks like snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Heavy sleet coming through the county now! Amazing. The fetch come out of nega and the upstate, has been very steady for the last five hours. Trying to image this without a warm noise ... Glad Rutherford County got in on this, too many times y'all miss out on the good stuff while we rack up. Yea if it were all snow it would be a good 6-10 incher for most of us but I am enjoying the sleet still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerel_sky Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Wicked sleet here, a little zrn! A pic of sidewalk. About an inch of sleet on roads and all surfaces! Nice surprise after getting to 37 today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No snow for you Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I would say Greenville is now 60% Sleet and 40% freezing rain. Current temp is 27.8 with DP of 25. have about .1 inches at my house of ice and ground is covered with Sleet including the roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 No doubt, an absolute raging sleet storm. Kind of glad we stayed pure sleet instead of snow then sleet so we could witness over 2 inches of sleet. I have a feeling it will be staying around for a while if a lot doesn't melt tomorrow....

rduwx Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 IP in Cary...I just walked out to my road and it is covered. If we get zr on top of that it'll be nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoAPPS Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I'm in Monroe, N.C. We've had freezing rain almost from the start with practically no snow/sleet to cut down the amounts. I'm pretty worried. I know a lot of people like winter weather no matter what, and I'll admit, it's exciting. But as that ice keeps accruing with strong radar returns continuing and temps hovering in the mid to upper 20s I'm getting memories of December 2002...

Artie Fufkin Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Been hanging tough at 33 in Sandy Springs for hours with the proverbial cold rain.

UpstateSCBud Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I would say Greenville is now 60% Sleet and 40% freezing rain.

I fear the % of freezing rain is going to creep up as the night goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongwxnc Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Aint that the truth. Gald to know y'all are getting sleeted also.

Wild Weather Monger Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 What I'm trying to figure out for N Georgia is we have this wedge solidly in place, in it looks to me that right on it' heels a "cold" front is pushing in from the NW to where winds shift out of the ENE to the NW. Precip is lagging behind this front all the way back into Mississippi. Since areas ahead of the front are already so close to freezing, seems to me that it could fall below freezing again rather quickly behind the front and a new round of zr could commence. Any credence to this thought, or just being a weenie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgertime Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Heavy IP here in CLT...just went out to the street and it's a skating rink....all this sleet falling is just going to make it worse especially if ZR comes on top of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparklecity Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Temp still dropping, down to 27.1°. For some reason KSPA has been reporting snow for the past hour or two. Still heavy sleet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broken024 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Seems like we're mostly sleet in fort mill now How long has it been sleeting there for? I'm over in Waxhaw... hear a little sleet starting to mix in. Not much though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie Williams Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 15/13 snow mixing with sleet at times with ENE winds at 7 ... snowfall total was almost at 6" before sleet started mixing in. HP is getting into better position so the battle is on! *Activate CAD and engage to full strength* ...sippin on some shine to stay warm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgertime Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Roads done? I don't see how you can safely drive on them right now. Granted my street isn't super busy so main roads may still be OK. With the amount of IP coming down now though it won't take long at all to get the main roads done for. Now throw on what's sure to be ZR on top of them and roads are screwed tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
