BristowWx Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 This has to be the bravest sleet ever. More like a hailstorm. 26 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Philly for that and got 4" of solid sleet after the day before was like 50 degrees. Took forever to melt off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your location matters for climo (the further north or west you are the better) 2.) Always protect your lower end 3.) The mix line will always win I mean, those are always rules to live by in the MA. But the last minute drying trend, the major mixing for every storm, marginal cold air, etc., etc., etc. Could have a LOT more snow this winter with minimal changes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianonymous Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 These wee little ice balls are falling, and they sting!! I guess that's sleet?? I thought I had blown a pipe in the house because it sounded like a water leak when it hit the windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If things were like 1 degree colder and just 10 to 20% wetter, we'd of won bigly every time. But compared last year and the year before that, this has been an okay winter.

I moved here in 2017 and this is like it was in that 3" sleet storm for my back yard in Gaithersburg in 2017. Looking at radar, I think we all have a good shot at 2-3" of sleet for this storm too.

This may elicit a dissertation style reply from psu, but NINAs typically find every way possible screw the MA. The northern tier will always manage to get theirs, even if the delivery doesn't quite meet their high standards. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
