Observations: 12 UTC Day 2 (Hour 36)

Hypothetical skewt plot of a sounding for precipitation type forecasting

Moderate freezing rain is being observed, and there is significant icing of trees, roadways and power lines. There is concern for the potential of significant ice accumulation over the next 12 hours.
