umdterps29 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Sleet just took over in southern AA county in a matter of seconds. 90/10 sleet to snow ratio. Coming down hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtstack Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 What's the best way to determine zr versus ip over a snow pack? It seems a bit more difficult. Probably clear a spot on a table or deck area. Then you can see glaze vs. sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ji Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Ended up with slightly more than an inch and changed to sleet pretty much right when the models were advertising a tad after 5PM. The orientation of the band screwed all us southeastern folks. Happy for the northern crew and those out west. I much preferred the last snow in mby.time to wax that fishing boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRWx Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Probably clear a spot on a table or deck area. Then you can see glaze vs. sleet. I guess a car top will have to do. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshfsu123 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 got up to 3.55 inches before the sleet began... hoping it will change back to snow again, as other locations are doing. Either way, gonna be below freezing for a bit longer at the surface... still just 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deck Pic Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 have they reported 1" yet? yes...they were at 2.6" at around 4:30...lagging just a little behind my measurement. Their measurements have been very good the last 2 winters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 All sleet now. Good storm, hope the ice produces. How much are we looking at re ice?

cigrgd Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Apparently roads are a horror show around Baltimore Things appear to be just as bad in the DC area. The camera at 495 and Seven Locks shows some major shenanigans happening there, with several vehicles stalled in the middle lanes of the outer loop.

Yeoman Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 It doesn't concern me at all...I hope the temp stays below freezing and the storm is as crippling and disruptive as possible. Lol.. IMO this was one of the best since 09-10.. Cold, snow during the daylight hours, transition to sleet at dusk, huge flakes, lots of accidents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cae Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I think I've been under-reporting snow all day. I went out at 4:00 and measured about 5.3" on my deck. Then I went around to the front of the house to shovel and measured a little over 6" in several spots. I think the storm coming up from the south might have put my deck in the shadow of the house. Now it's about 6.8" in front with moderate to heavy snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
