Looking at the 3am HRRR and RAP they are consistent with temps at 1,000ft with what is being reported. If the trend is right we should be in ZR territory in 3 hrs.

Light freezing drizzle, -1.1°C.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Dont you feel ripped off living way out in the valley, esp Abby, sitting cold and at -6 now, while SW, outer Coastal Victoria gets buried with snow, and is still reporting snow at this time, while Abby has had ZR for over an hour already? :lol: :lol:

7 cm before midnight + 5 cm after = 12 cm. Caught it before the changeover caused any compaction.

I guess freezing rain has begun here too. Camera looks like it has a coating on it.
Go to bed, it starts to snow hard. Wake up, all the snow has stopped early.
Guess I can’t complain. I haven’t been outside but if we did end up like others I’m sure I have over a solid foot on the ground (after tuesdays surprise)
