Anybody else notice that band of snow/sleet pivoting on radar to our south? Expand I noticed it......I think looking at the system as a whole, seeing other peoples obs, and looking out the window are more useful. I wish they would just get rid of those P-type colors and just keep it all green/yell/red so it's easier to see the intensity. (we were getting sleeted on when the radar showed heavy snow, therefore those colors are useless....I've seen issues with them before but never this bad) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Iceman Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 heaviest sleet I've witnessed. pea sized. highly recommend people shovel now... the nearly 2inch caked so far was back and shovel breaking. glad I didn't wait for storm to end.

Hurricane Agnes Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Pouring sleet now. Seems much of the fzra that had mixed in earlier has slowed or ceased. Temp @28F and slowly rising. Winds getting gusty. Pressure still dropping (down to 29.56 inHg) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Heaviest snow of the morning so far as the mix line pushes back south. Can't see the trees a block away from me...gotta be 2-3"/hr rates. Lots of blowing and drifting occurring too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluehens Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Mt Holly may hit their forecast for me in northern DE. They have me at 5-10 and right now I have 3" of concrete with heavy sleet falling. IF the storm strengthens and pivots sooner rather than later then another few inches of snow is not out of the question and they hit it for me.

wkd Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Absolutely pouring snow again. Got an additional inch in the last half hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RU848789 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Up to 7.5". 3" per hour rate for the last 40 min, even mixed with sleet at times. I have never in my life seen aggregates like this - they're literally 3-4" across. After the changeover to sleet for an hour plus, I thought we were dead. Now it's fun again, even if we don't get to a foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Just now finally transitioned moderate to heavy less than 1/2 mile visibilty, that took forever and a day 24.3F Ending with 10" and hitting double digits I would have to consider a huge save Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penndotguy Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Its cranking out here again Heavy snow the wind is crazy, i went out while it was sleeting to maybe get ahead and man it just unloaded on me, we got about 1" more total of 9 since the sleet now its pure snowSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shemATC Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Between 8-1am was the expected "IT" hours for us here. All depends on what type of precip falls. Maybe I should go shovel more before I end up with 4" of snow on top of that clay that is out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
