We have the same. Forecasters are dumbfounded. The radar shows snow and sleet is coming down hard.
Is this the end?

Supposed to stop here around 1 pm and start back up again from 5 pm to 10 am tomorrow......never getting above freezing until after it is over.

We ended up with about 3/4" of sleet that is now frozen solid. Here is a pic of the driveway. The blackish area is the asphalt showing through 3/4" of solid ice. The whiter areas are where sleet blew and piled up to over an inch.

2” of sleet on the driveway. Very tough to shovel so I left it half done.

I believe the fat lady is singing............ Hookup is the champion this time.
They have to be predicting over 2 feet of snow for me to start another snow thread! Three busted storms in a row.......three strikes and out.
