Still dropping. 24/14 with light snow now in Wolf. Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro using Tapatalk

We must’ve completely lost our blocking. This thing just wants to ride north

I don’t have any problem admitting that this is a huge bummer. There’s no law stating you have to be satisfied with a given result, and there’s no virtue in pretending this is what I wanted. We bled slowly from HECS to the best storm in years, only to now find ourselves with a veritable sleetbomb as the mesos slide into range. I don’t see why we would pretend that this is what we wanted. Hopefully we get ‘em next time. But this is a solid bust in my book. Nothing wrong with admitting that and still enjoying what we get.

Waited til 24 hours out to fold like a cheap suit. This thing gets slapped around by the real models so often it’s really not worth looking at. If it was from another country we’d probably treat it like the JMA. At any rate, even with the bad 850 low location we can still get a good thump. Just need it to come in hot and heavy.

I've been getting little waves of light snow all morning. It'll snow for a while then taper off, then pick back up. I think it has been struggling to reach the surface even up here in SE Morgan county

Have not looked at any data but Jesus a 30.70 high . Radar returns show mostly due east movement. Could the highly disregarded suppression be our friend to prohibit any low from climbing well up into WV. winds chills below zeo at Frederick from 12 30 am to 10:30 . Hagerstown peak wc —13 and lots of negatives right around DC. Low temp here of 8.

All of that is SUPER ugly! YIKES. Someone said Dominion Electric VA hiked rates at start of year, so we'll see what happens. Sadly many have to be chained to that with no recourse, and I seriously doubt it gets better going forward. Happily I use the 3 step heating system, cut the wood, stack the wood, burn the wood. I have propane (which is ridiculously high too) as back-up and what I call 'shoulder seasons' in early fall and late spring, but that may go bye-bye if propane keeps going up and I'll just burn wood 24/7/200+.

Starting to see some mPING reports in far southwest Virginia.

And I finally remembered... It was the Suny MM5! Lmao

It was on GOES derived imagery too:

Wakefield latest update:

It currently track as the highest scoring model

6 inches of straight sleet in East Nantmeal with that one!

The NAM seems to be the only hi res model this warm (along with its replacement RRFS) so hopefully that’s a good sign. The hi res RGEM was insane at 6z.

Not that itnmeans anything but another obs Apparently according to twitter NAM is doing great so far Little Rock it had basically nothing just sleet they’re @ 6 inches

Vacation

32.5 degrees, 45% humidity and cloudy here. Definitely verifying a bit warmer than expected

Agree with that i'd always rather a snow to other precip scenario than the other way around near the coast.

Thanks this is exactly what I asked about a few pages back

Fake, fake news…lol!

Sounds like freezing your ass off with no electricity to me

I lived in Northampton Mass at the time and we had a solid foot. The overrunning snows had temps in the single digits but the snow growth was good and it was solid inch/hr from mid afternoon through mid evening 6-7 inches. It then lightened up but we got a couple more inches over the next several hours and then around 3 am the shield was really organizing but also moving SE and a nice heavy burst came through for about 45(3 inches!!) minutes before quickly tapering to flurries leaving a foot of powdery snow otg Then I watched in awe and wild jealousy as the eastern zones just got destroyed through mid morning while we had clear cobalt blue skies and bright sun.

It's almost like Uccellini knows what he's talking about. It's not like he wrote a book on snowstorms or anything.
