Had big fat flakes and just heard the first few pings of sleet. Lame, but I'm cool if it stays sleet. Better than freezing rain...

Freezing rain falls as regular water and the freezes on contact. Sleet falls as frozen ice pellets. Sleet actually skis extremely well. Freezing rain will just crust up the snow that already fell.

Total rain/freezing rain here now. Ground, streets and walkways are really frozen, so there's now a lot of ice build up everywhere.

It looks like Catskills turning into sleet, freezing rain, etc. Gore seems to be getting a lot of snow.

We have a little over 2 inches on the ground, and the snow is coming down harder now
It's a mix here in Watertown, CT. Kind of a wet sleet I guess, definitely seems to be some straight up rain mixed in though.
