Surface observations at BGM 00z January 24th to 05z January 24thNotes:The precipitation began as freezing rain early in the evening on the 23rd, then continued through the evening. Note that despite some indications of sleet from much of the model guidance, no sleet was reported. Previous training indicates that sleet is favored with the maximum temperature in the warm layer is between 1 and 3 degrees C, however this and other studies indicate that freezing rain often occurs instead of sleet, even when this condition is satisfied. ![]()
