One more time for those in the back:   .02" of freezing rain is a high-impact event if it's in the 20's and has been for hours leading up the event.

That said, there is a clear signal in the CAMs, the parent NAM, the GFS para, and the 18z GFS for sleet at the start for most of the area except for southern MD where it's all ice.    Having a coating of sleet first would certainly lessen the impact of freezing rain on surfaces, although I still think that it's going to be unpleasant walking or driving tomorrow and tomorrow night.

Yeah, I don't mean to minimize the threat that ice poses! I do like to root for interesting weather (that isn't tornadoes or wind) though, so I'm slightly disappointed when the numbers are lower. Totally understand the danger remains.

If 0.02" and cold surfaces/air temperatures is a high-impact event shouldn't the criterium for ice storm warning be changed; I thought 0.02" without sleet/snow is an ice storm advisory

Freezing rain advisory I think.  I don’t think we will know how high impact this is until game time.  How much sleet?  How much precip? Temps? Lots to consider as you know

At this point I am not relying on the models. Better off using this...

I just told my ex who's planning to drive back from Little Rock to get her dog that we'd be better off using a tarot reader at this point. 

And speaking of fortune, even Little Rock is slated for 4-8" now...Watch their storm verify. What is this world coming to?

Even Houston is getting in on the icy action.
