Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeLight sleet and freezing rain overspread the sheltered valleys of Carbon and Monroe Counties during the first half of the day on the 18th. Precipitation started shortly after midnight as sleet and freezing rain and slowly changed over to plain rain as the morning progressed. The rain ended by noon across the Poconos. Storm totals were generally under two tenths of an inch. Untreated roadways were hazardous. A low pressure system in the Mississippi Valley pumped moisture eastward into the Middle Atlantic States. Unfortunately while it was warm enough for rain above the ground, the cold air near the surface left by a departing high pressure system made precipitation fall as sleet and/or freezing rain.
