EHoffman Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Light rain, pavement wet, don't really even see much accrual on branches or elevated surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukeblue219 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Much better rates now in Silver Spring with that radar burst overhead. If only it was snow... Ice is fun for no one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh man... the sidewalk in front of my house is straight ice in mt. Pleasant. The temp fell to 27 also... don’t think that bodes too well looking at the radar.

MN Transplant Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 27.7 and ZR, but this is really low-impact due to the sun angle. Little accumulation on the wires or trees. Sidewalk is wet. Metal surfaces are certainly icy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 Don't see any signs of mix on @mattie g's favorite correlation coefficient radar. Which suggests this is FZRA/PL for everyone. No snow in sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I haven't been outside I'm just looking through my apt window so take what I say with a grain of salt.

A coating of sleet is possible. * WHERE...Augusta and Rockingham Counties. * WHEN...Until 7 AM EST Sunday. * IMPACTS...Travel will be very dangerous. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Roadways are becoming very icy and dangerous.

I just don’t see how all of this doesn’t freeze given past similar situations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little accumulation on the wires or trees. Sidewalk is wet. Metal surfaces are certainly icy. Not here. Pretty rapid accretion here on everything. Definitely so spotty sheets of ice on roads too. My sidewalk is a skating rink. It's only 27 degrees. It's not March and 31.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxMan1 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Freezing rain here in Crofton, 28°/23°. As I mentioned yesterday, the forecast *still* has us getting to 37°F tomorrow. With no horizontal temperature advection and a bolstered in-situ CAD setup with all that sleet and ice to melt (diabatic cooling), I have no idea when we'll hit the freezing mark again. Monday perhaps? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErinInTheSky Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Looks like we're getting some form of icy precip in Germantown now. Not sure if it's sleet or ZR but the top of my car looks like it's icing, looking from the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're gonna have to move. Nice glaze up here in Mt. Cleveland Park. Roads seem to look fine, but I admittedly just woke up and haven't been outside. Looks like an overperformer in our fair city. Of course it would be for rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Columbia: Temp bottomed out at 26.8 after dawn. Rose to 27.4 with precip onset and hasn’t budged since. A little more sleet now IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but you probably have like 60 feet of elevation on me. I'm at the bottom of the hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErinInTheSky Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Just checked. It's actually pretty solid freezing rain in Germantown now. And it's 28 degrees and freezing instantly. Back deck is already icy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
