5” snow and flip happened right at 7am. Pouring sleet. A little sad I didn’t get to 6” but whatever. It will be a big sleet bomb storm that is rare here 15°

Back to snow

RAP please, pretty please?!

Measured 3 inches here so far. The snow is extremely fine and powdery. Couldn't even tell it was snowing when I got up earlier.

Everyone's favorite koochie.. 9z went bonkers

Hi, yes. It was. Both the Towson and Baltimore boards were slightly under-calibrated. I went in and took the beginning depth manually and re-adjusted. They are reading closer to correctly now. Please keep in mind that the sensors are only reasonable accurate to +/- 1". Here is the Towson Time series where you can see I made the adjustment about a half-hour ago in the big jump.

Double digit snow drought?

Already up to 7" with the short range models showing another 10-12" to go. If accurate could start to challenge 2008.

Someone wake up @Maestrobjwa to measure so we can end that discussion finally

Isn't there another DGZ because of the cold airmass?

I’m pulling for everyone to max out as best as possible. We already surpassed whatever the NAMs were showing. Just trying to capitalize on the time before the pingers begin their onslaught.

I think thats what I’m getting now. Never really seen this before

yep Dayville...is on the 18" line...not 12. so you are on the boarder of 12-18/18-24". The maps have increased update after update.

Good luck folks down there by DC. I hope it stays sleet and does not go to ZR. HRRR shows 3-4 hours of pretty heavy ZR accumulation to near .25"

Can confirm. Sleet here in Herndon now. Measured 4.8" before the filp.

Yeah I raised an eyebrow at that. My measure is not very scientific but snow was easily past the knuckle of my index finger at 7-7:15am lol.

that's what I have the camera on but I also need my phone.

Changeover in progress, about 5 inches down. Heavy snow sleet mix.

I left breakfast and went out in my sweats just for you ;-) 5.75" and stacking up fast. The < 6" 10-year snow drought is finally about to fall for MBY...what will I whine about now??

I must be under a band. Snowing hard with some sleet mixed in.

I think if the Culpeper people are reporting mixing back to snow I think we might be in wintry mix mode for the better part of the morning, rate dependent. More like 70/30 sleet/snow now.

Pretty out. While the flakes look tiny when I actually go to the window to look it is snowing pretty decent. Looking at the tops of cars guessing about 5” out there. A lot of it is blowing around. Temp is 12 and the dew point is out of the negatives and currently is 10.6.

I'm sure I'm missing something but I don't see that. Here's what I'm using. https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?parms=LWX-N0C-1-24-100-usa-rad

I got a couple of hours of seeder-generated powder snow after flipping to sleet. That CAD is some serious business.
