Sleeting all over God’s Country north of downtown St. Amant this morning. Where were our resident weather baws on this?

I heard it hitting the roof and was like, that sounds like sleet. Went outside and sure enough it’s sleeting. Did not expect any kind of precipitation today, especially sleet.

Coming down fairly heavy in Iberville.

Was under the carport and heard the sound switch over from water to ice.

It was an 87 in February and now sleeting late March on st Patrick’s at 45 degrees. Sounds like a normal year to me

It’s below freezing at upper levels. This is a cold air mass.

Did you check to see if your outside faucet was frozen? TD can help with that if you still can't figure it out.

The faucet turned out to be fine but now I’m worried about these ice pellets damaging my roof. Should I get a qualified roofer to come check it out for me after this event passes?

I can't imagine sleet harming your roof. Large hail maybe.

Dam, I live in downtown St Amant and slept through it. Got a lil drunk last night so it’s not surprising
