In the end this was moving too fast for big totals.

ORH_wxman Posted Sunday at 04:05 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:05 PM 5.2” looks like it will do it with that final band of pure fake champagne. The first 4” or so was prob 10 to 1 at most while the final inch or so was like jspin fluff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was your 00z 12hr QPF with the event already underway and then actual totals. S CT was pretty wet. 0.5-0.8 there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted Sunday at 04:06 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:06 PM As Tip mentioned, the sleet might have been just enough for some of us to miss the 6" warning threshold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted Sunday at 04:09 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:09 PM Was hoping to have double this but there’s been snowcover on the ground more often than not this winter around here .

Could it be that you don't get crystal/flake growth, and that's what it shows as sleet/ice pellets? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you and others realize that missing 6” due to sleet is deceptive since water content is same and sleet is more durable and problematic on roads than snow. Shouldn’t warning threshold in theory be lower if % that’s sleet is higher? Example: 3” snow and 2” of sleet (5” total) is a bigger deal on roads than 6” or even 7” of pure snow. Opinions?

I think impact-wise it makes sense but it’s really hard to verify so the snowfall threshold is just easier to stick with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
