I would take that and run... if it was correct

Just saw that on 00z HRRR, 4.8" for DC at 07z when it appears we flip to sleet. 

Snow falling here in Chevy  Chase/Bethesda area. Grass and cars coated. Maybe close to 0.2" I would estimate. Ties for 3rd biggest event of the year, wooo hooo! With 4 events total and biggest one was 1.7"!:lol:

The low-angle BWI base radars didn't seem to be picking up on the snow in my area.  Maybe becasue Baltimore City is directly between the radar and Towson...  If you're in this area, the Andrews 1.00 degree elevation seems to work well.  You'd think I would have figured this out earlier.

Anyone know offhand if the ptype on Pivotal WX is the dominant type or if they consider it all precip? Appears they adjust the snow ratio to reflect sleet, but it shows a big increase in snow/sleet accum. though it is clear sleet has been falling awhile by 10z. Plus sleet line looks awfully far west. Thinking much of that is snow and sleet mix perhaps.
