Stormpc Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Yes. This band is big business. However I have noticed the snowflake size get smaller and harder so I think the transition is underway here. The woods behind my house are getting noisy. Must be some sleep working its way in. Either that or some more rimed flakes. Im west of Dale City.

Joshfsu123 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 To me, the sleet line looks to be mixing down a bit and changing to snow as it approaches DC on radar... so it might mix a bit but might stay snow for a while longer. In SE DC and still ripping snow... no sleet. Roads in my neighborhood have been lost (they weren't salted)... sidewalks are also now gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I don't think that area of sleet is the official changeover. You can see it dying off with snow behind it. Whew! First warning shot missed the bow I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 30.0 flat and hopefully it starts ripping soon. Might call it quits and get some sleep for a bit though after the band comes through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
