Well this storm turned out to be another bummer... Cry JK

We started of with Freezing rain, but quickly changed to sleet, accumulated about 1" of sleet, then went back to freezing rain, back to sleet, now its snowing lightly, but only expecting an inch of snow at most. The Highlight of the storm was witnessing some rare "thundersnow"  which is convective snow showers. I also (semi) documented on camera. I saw a flash of lightning durning sleet, which would be called Thundersleet. Anyways there are two photos, the first is a normal shot, lightning occured in the second shot, illuminating a purple hue to the photos. (lightning to the NW, camera faceing SW) sorry if this is confusing, but its late...maybe tommorow ill revise this, but I cant think very well right now
