lakeeffectkid383 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Getting lots more sleet here now. About 50/50 sleet snow mix. Big dry area moving due north over N PA heading right for us. Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakeeffectkid383 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 All sleet here now. We’ll see how long it last. Ughh , sucks to be wasting the heaviest QPF on sleet but models were spot on with that warm layer aloft over much of the Thruway corridor. Hopefully it switches back to snow in the next hour or so but mix cc shows no sign of that anytime soon, in fact the mix area is growing by the frame. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericjcrash Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Just completely busted my ass, all sidewalks have been skating rinks since last Sunday and I completely forgot. The 2" of dust masked that and I went down hard. Turned it around. Winds are picking up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 It’s not snow but not sleet. Strange stuff. Not gonna accumulate efficiently, that’s for sure. Like mashed potatoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a bad stretch...Wolfie is in the best spot "locally". Watertown is better for snow also. I should apply for a transfer there. Would be more a field job but more $.

Buffalo Bumble Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Still heavy snow here, no sleet yet but we have to be riding the line at this point with these frosty the snowman head sized dendrites. Eyeballing 6” new. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 Let it be known that Miller As almost always go figure NW than modeled in the last 1-2 days and even in real time. Not sure why, convection chasing? The NAM caught on quickest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
