Been in this freezing drizzle for about 2 hours. 26/26 La Plata I'm so confused. I'm way, way northwest from LaPlata and I'm currently watching what little ice I had on my car windshield melting and sliding off the car. There's literally no ice here.

Miss Pixee Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Heavy sleety rain in SE DC. Looks wet but icy on grass, unpaved surfaces. Streets are a combo of wet and suspicious black ice patches. Don't envy anyone who has to go on these roads later. Power lines looking shiny too. Current temp is 32.

Driveway is wet, steps are icy. Our blue colored van is covered in ice, but the ice has melted off our black Honda Civic. Was hoping for more sleet.

I've had a few periods where echoes got heavier and it turned over to a mix of sleet and freezing rain, but been mostly freezing rain. Although, it really just seems like rain. Not upset by it as I'm not a big freezing rain guy, more just perplexed how areas in Southern MD are way icier than here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltimoreguy Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 The JFX Pepsi sign claims another victim. Northbound 83 shutdown and a parking lot all the way back to downtown No ice though.

Total dearth of accretion on the trees, which is the prettiest part of this. Think it's just too warm here. Temp is clearly not the issue - lack of elevation and the date is the issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimorewx Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Car is icy but solar radiation definitely seems to be helping and not allowing real ice accretion on other surfaces. If there’s anything left around sunset that might change though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csnavywx Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Yep, weak insolation keeping this from becoming an absolute disaster here. 30.5/27.5. Lower dews will be a big concern heading towards sundown considering the steady 10-13 knots of wind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
