That's not how power outages work.

 

My friend in south Raleigh reports sleet at her place. They were having power problems before after a decent bit of ZR.

 

Well Sparky, monitoring the Duke Energy power failure reports they appear to be clustered east and south of my position.  So that's my data point.

But they don't spread. Each one is caused by a discrete event. If the conditions don't change, the outages won't spread, as such.

You might have been a few minutes late going outside.  Had a couple of nice loud claps of thunder here about 6:20. I'm just a very few miles NE of you.  You're definitely correct that the sleet was pouring down.  I'm so glad I only had a small period of zr. Just enough to leave a glaze and right back to sleet.

Was pouring sleet and some really dark clouds here. Didn't hear any thunder though :(

Moderate snow Roanoke/Salem line. We got absolutely dumped on for a couple hours from about 5-8 it was like huge shards of paper falling out the sky. Rough estimate of 10.5"

Moderate snow here again.

That is so weird to me. I am in K'dale and we have not had 1 flake. Right now it is pouring outside. It is rain but not sure if that is freezing rain. It is so heavy and just looks like normal rain to me.
