Don’t forget 3/14/23. 30” here just to the west of you.

This snow is blowing all around now. Drifting. looks like a few hours left of this and we’re on to tomorrows snows.

lol I would say that getting thermals right is pretty important lololol

1.1" last hour for a storm total of 13.0" so far.

This was one TOUGH storm to forecast. This stuff is not easy. I’m happy with my forecast. Maybe underestimated part of MD, but I’ll gladly accept considering how insane this one was to figure out. Overall, this is an all timer with regards to winter weather for a storm perspective. It’s about to get crazy with the cold following too.

I shoveled 4, 6, 3 and 2. Very unofficial 15". Sleet held off to the very end when it was meaningless.

Higher end totals in EMass will depend on how efficient the ocean enhancd stuff once this WAA period ends in a couple hours. Given how persistent the fetch has been over the Boston area, I’d say it should produce just fine. I’ve always been a sucker for a good easterly firehose, Mar 2013 remains my all time favorite storm

Patriots vs. Seahawks in Superbowl. Just like in February 1, 2015. And we know what followed.

Flizzard

That HRRR has a tasty look. There will be a dry slot. But then it gets going again

Very light glaze on railings & powerlines. Trees didn't really look like they accumulated much but hard to tell in the dark. Glad its minimal because I like power!

or 2/1. GEFS latching on

You accumulated 9.5 but that compacted to 6.5

I measured 11" on the hood of my truck.

Snowbird chief

With progged wind gusts to 30 mph most of the day tomorrow, there's a non-zero chance of losing power. Would've been a lot more dicey with larger ZR accretions from this storm, but certain areas around here lose power when someone sneezes.

No more ipas tuck me in

Is this from a late bloomer (ie. late phase/capture)? Odd snowfall signature. .

Temp heading backwards. Never got close to freezing here in Raleigh. The micro glacier outside is enjoyable

Let’s go!!

Picked up almost quarter inch (.23) since 630 under no radar returns

3 Foot amounts? Asking for MEEE

Here's a timelapse I shot from the storm start til about 8:30pm. I'm still shooting and have another camera going as well. I'll post those tomorrow.

I was so prepared for the potential of power going out with this storm. I ran the generator yesterday (after draining the carburetor and cleaning it out), gassed it up with plenty of extra gas at the ready, and had it all staged and ready to go. I had all batteries and wireless chargers charged up, plans in place for keeping as warm as possible for a few days, etc. In the grand scheme of things, I'm really glad I didn't need to put any of that plan into action, but it *is* a little bit of a bummer that I couldn't at least have seen some of that that hard prep work put to good use!

next thing to look for this week - does DC get below zero for the first time in 32 years?
