October Odyssey

That band to my southwest heading my way is really producing a lot of lightning. Might try to get some lightning pictures as it approaches. I also would not be surprised to see sleet here when it arrives.View attachment 51020

First time being under one of these I believe. In October too.7188DA8C-926A-42F7-922E-7076F1B264C5.jpeg
WHAT...Periods of significant icing through at least Wednesday
morning. Ice accumulations up to one-half inch will be common,
with some locations possibly receiving upwards of one inch.
There will also be accumulations of sleet.

Never seen thundersleet before, only if our warm noses were that cool around here
Somewhere in my parents house is a video my a Dad made of thunder sleet we had during the February 1996 Ice Storm in North Carolina. It was the most amazing thing to watch. It was truly a thunderstorm storm with a very heavy downpour, only it was ice pellets falling. It lasted over on hour and it piled up almost 2 inches. The temperature also dropped during that time from 31 to 22 and flash froze puddles in the yard from the freezing rain that had fallen all day.

I remember we had 2 ice storms in the mid 90s with thundersleet/freezing rain. Good times
