ovechkin Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 1 minute ago, real said: 50 to 50 snow and sleet in downtown dc now. Doubt the snow will last but at least it’s trying I think I’ve seen a few flakes by the VA. Both of them. The sleet accumulation on the street is cool, but still disappointing.

frd Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Transition to sleet here with some snow mixing in. Starting to whiten the lawn. Looking at the radar, hopefully go to more snow shortly if rates pick up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeesburgWx Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I have never seen a sleet storm like this before. Everything is covered in white ice. Legit all sleet. Like 2.5 inches so far and just pouring sleet. Unreal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreeRedheads Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Heavy sleet in Herndon. 26°. Not too many cars on the roads, via VDOT cameras. Looks like some ice buildup between lanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
