That has been reported; I don't remember the sleet, because it was such a wicked and long, and at the time, shocking storm. Seen a few storms nearly as big since then....

if it sleets for a couple of hours in the middle of the night when everyone is sleeping no one will notice lol

The HRRR is a particularly low skill model with a meandering coastal low. For example, look at this 8 hour forecast representing the current radar. Not a very good representation of the mixing line and the intensity.

why do they even use this model and call it "future radar"?

OMFG, look at this radar snapshot from 10 am - that's 40-45DBZ over my house and insane rates over Somerset County.  Some of the heaviest snow I've ever seen for the past 15-20 minutes.  Was at 8.5" at 7 am, then 8.75" at 8 am (not much that hour), but then up to 9.5" at 9 am and 10.5" at 10 am and at the rate it's been falling since 10 am, I'm guessing we'll have close to 12" by 11 am.  Shoveling (2nd shovel - my son shoveled at 10 pm after about 4") took me from about an hour.  Hard work, but so nice being outside in it.  Walked around a bit afterwards taking my measurements and just enjoying it.

You still use a shovel? God bless you man. I've got a few snowblowers ( long story ) and neighbors asking to borrow; I've told them yes, but I'm not offering tutorials during a pandemic.

Remember when I said I never want blocking ever again ? Without it , this would have been a cutter.

Just about the only way something like this can happen in a mid-strong Nina this late in the season. Without it today would have been 55-60 and driving rain and Detroit would be seeing this.
