about 50 degrees cooler than 24 hours ago with snow falling wow "what a difference a day makes, 24 little hours" 34 / 33 Should be shutting down shortly

It was 88 this time yesterday and 33 degrees now.

12.3 NW of Winchester. The fact EVERYONE on this board got more tells you what this winter ranks out here. Another pathetic winter. After basically 7 other pathetic winters. It's really starting to take the fun out of the hobby for me. Love all guys here too much to leave though.

Total qpf here of .48”.

I find the biggest problem with chasing is not having a partner. To be successful you really need two people. You need one person fully dedicated to driving and another person fully dedicated to radar and navigation. My problem is I don’t know anyone else willing to drop whatever they’re doing on a dime to come with me. Then, even if I find someone, most people I know are clueless about meteorology and reading radar. I’ve tried having my wife be the driver but she gets anxious and can’t stand being yelled at. Telling someone else who isn’t a chaser how and where to drive just leads to fights. So I’ve kind of given up. I’m too old to do it alone. It’s too much stress.

Nothing going on here

some light snow here...basically white rain. 35 degrees

More rare than the oft referenced biblical snow.

He’s a lock for a great spring day on Monday.

Even though the event itself was minor, the insanity of it definitely upgraded this winter in my books to an A- for the Northern Neck

About a solid inch of paste with this system after a record high print yesterday (84 vs. 80 old record). Nice little last hurrah. Probably had the best rates of the winter for about an hour there.

just some very light snow here-HRRR was right that it would crap out further north

34⁰ light to moderate snow. A dusting in sheltered areas.

It is bone dry here. Although the radar is lit up like it's snowing everywhere. It must be a lot of dry air because of the cold air behind the front. Looking like we're going to get nada here

12/2: T .003" zr and 5-6 sleet pellets 12/5: 3.0 12/8: 3.8 1/25: 4.3 (1.8 snow / 2.5 sleet) 1/31: 2.5 2/4: .5 3/12: .4 Total:14.5

0.3"-ish. Not counting it. 0.25" looks ugly

That's a crazy stat

3/12: 0.8" T: 22.7"

This got me thinking... we haven't had a HWW in a while in St. Joseph County. Turns out it's been the first one issued here since November of 2019!

Magnolia 33F Heavy snow 2 hrs.

nearly 55 degree drop since yesterday afternoon. looks like just about an inch otg

Next winter will be for your yard, while it mostly rains here. Ninos aren't what they used to be for coastal areas. Prefer Ninas lol.

12/5: 1.5" 12/14: 1" 1/1: 0.3" 1/17: 0.1" 1/25: 9.5" (5.5 snow/4 sleet est.) 2/6: 0.3" 2/22: 3.3" 3/2: 2.0" 3/12: 1.0" **Total: 19"**

nice writeup from Milwaukee NWS Here are a few things to keep an eye on over the next couple days. The first thing to watch are the surface and 850 mb low tracks. Given the expected transition from rain to mixed precip to very heavy snow over a fairly short distance with this deepening low, any wobble north/south with the low tracks would have a significant impact on local precip types/amounts. As mentioned already, while the surface low track has remained fairly steady, the 850 mb low has been trending northward. Another trend to watch is that models have been slower with the exit of this system, lingering into at least Monday morning with the moderate to heavy snow and blowing snow. This would bring the higher impacts into the Monday morning commute. Lastly, models are often on the high side with storm total liquid equivalent 2-4 days out. Given the current anomalously high storm totals for a winter storm, it will be worth watching if models start coming down with totals in the next 24-48 hours. Give the strength of this system though, liquid equivalent totals of 1-2 inches seem reasonable, maybe not upwards of 3" per 12Z deterministic models.

This is probably the most unprecedented weather event ever. It would be like if this July, DCA recorded a high of 106 one day, and an early morning high of 98 the next day, then the temps dropping to near 50 by the end of that very day.
