In Greer on WH @ Lowes, currently heavy graupel or the biggest sleet in recorded history! Crunchy on some wooden steps!! Win

0.1" accumulation!! You barely avoided a complete shutout!

Considerable sleet coming down right now. Maybe a few flakes of snow

For those observing sleet or snow, what is the temp/dp?

This is completely unprecedented. I didn't expect a single pellet today, its been sleeting on and off since 7:45

The 12z ICON is now showing a pretty strong band of qpf tonight.

Weather channel. actually I think it gave me a 20% chance at noon then back to virtually zero after that til night. We are damn good at rain though so I should have factored that in and blended the forecast. Shame on me

WYFF Radar actually looks pretty good north of 85 right now. Imagine my surprise

If the models are underdone on the precip again later tonight with even more frontogenetical forcing, might actually see a legit burst of snow/sleet around here.

Wouldn't be surprised. The initial column could wetbulb to a snow sounding and after waa kicks in the warm nose is thin so maybe heavy rates win

Seems like we're shifting towards rain.... beginning of the end or will frozen precip make a comeback?

 

[D-Ray]

started as light snow this morning but quickly turned to sleet.......had about 2 and half hours of off and on sleet

 

[Myfrotho704_]

Really tiny snow flurries with a few sleet pellets, very light

Absolutely 0 local mets had any mention of sleet pellets mixing in or anything! Went straight rain and ice possibly in the mtns! Peoples are like WTH??

It's pretty cool to watch my weather station and see how the temp fluctuates with the cloud cover moving in and out. Look at the solar radiation, you can see when the clouds move in how it drops sharply and the temps level out or drop slightly.
