At least an inch of sleet, with most of it in the past 30 minutes. Just a sleet deluge with intermittent huge flakes and still some freezing rain. Never seen anything like this.

Just did the front walk and patio. The sleet weighed as much or more than the snow from earlier lol. Finally down to just moderate sleet now.

Cary67 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Sleeting here. Heavy sleet now pinging. Any chance this flips back over or is that it for the snow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevlon62 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Sleet and a few flakes in downtown Woodstock.Drove about five miles up, vicinity 10C and we are all fat flakes with about 5 inches down and looking great. 27 F on the truck temp.Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Interesting to watch the trends in the obs around the area this evening. As the precip lightened/moved out, temps have been creeping up but dewpoints have been creeping down. So as precip resumes, there should still be a little room to play with evap cooling wise as the low levels saturate again... until waa ultimately is enough to push temps above freezing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve23guy Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Still ripping pretty good here in Beloit Wisconsin. We’re at about 6 + inches photo taken about an hour ago , went out for a quick cruise with my AWD and saw several peeps stuck in the intersections 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEILwxbo Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Moderate rain mixing with sleet with a temp at 26 in DKB here. Not good at all. Everything has became covered in ice pretty quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Pure freezing rain now with very little or no sleet. Looks like several hours of that to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McHenrySnow Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Trying to be happy, hard not to be disappointed. 3", freezing rain and sleet falling. 28º. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCNYILWX Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Sleeting here. Heavy sleet now pinging. Any chance this flips back over or is that it for the snow?Depending on what rates are like, non-zero chance it could go back over much later/pre-dawn hours, as the guidance is showing some modest cooling aloft ahead of the frontal zone.

Just a sleet deluge with intermittent huge flakes and still some freezing rain. Never seen anything like this.I had sold on sustained sleet with this, but what you had shows how convection can modify the thermal profiles and keep sleet going and even the mixed large flakes when otherwise you'd probably be freezing rain quicker. Fascinating stuff. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nwohweather Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Absolutely pouring snow in Toledo. Living in Charleston I forgot how fun winter can be.

You can tell by the backbuilding of the wavelengths, it is going far west. Wouldn't quite call it dead days out. Lol. I do agree west looks more likely but can't completely discount anything yet.
