Sleet probably mixes in, yes. Just gotta hope it's brief. Even yesterday the NAM had a very narrow warm layer advance all the way through NNJ. Today the NAM is even warmer and other guidance has trended in that direction. Sleet almost always advances a little further than modeled, since thin warm layers are difficult to diagnose. Fortunately the warmer air probably mixes out later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's coming hard but My flakes are so fine it's almost sleet lol I don't know if that's bad growth as much as it is fractured flakes. It's pretty windy and I bet the turbulence upstairs is doing a number on the flakes. The wind here on my hill keeps increasing and seems to have changed to more NNE rather than the ENE it has been.

Juliancolton Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The extreme westerly track that screwed over pretty much everyone in the megalopolis also warmed is naturally warming our mid layers as well. Strongest lift in 0 to -10C layer = miserable little 8:1 or 9:1 granules. That's why you try not to forecast ratios above climo in big storms. Thankfully we have QPF out the wazoo to compensate through the balance of the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I think some of that is legitimately just very heavy precip rates moving in. CC is usually a better tool to use than base reflectivity, when available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
