Few pics from around my property today. My seasonal wetland is quite wet. Last year at this time it was mostly dry. I will be trudging around in there seeding it with larvicide in another 6 weeks or so.
Everyone has their own interpretation of 'busted' I suppose. I didn't get as much as I wanted, nor what many of the models had depicted, but I did get about what I expected, being objective about the general setup, the complexities, and my location.
Radar looks more impressive here now than at other times where it was snowing light to moderately and accumulating, yet just random flakes flying around. I think there is some drying in the mid levels. We have finally reached the end of this protracted snow showery event I think.
It may have been a southern slider that ended up a MA slider. It definitely had some latitude gain though as it tracked eastward I believe. I don't think it was straight W-E in its track. I could be wrong.
I am sure @psuhoffman can provide the specifics.
I just remember it look suppressed, then it looked like it might hit the coastal plain of MD and DE, then it trended NW in the last day or so and ended up a solid event for everyone. That's how it can work with some decent blocking and legit cold in place. No mixing issues except maybe in SE VA or something. I recall it being in the mid teens here from start to finish, no lulls in intensity, and ended up with 7". Loved that day.
My last recollection of a temp at zero was after a snowstorm in early March of 2015 I believe. Was a great day, so refreshing. I went hiking and temps were in the 20s that day. Took lots of photos.
No one wants cold and dry, but I would love the rare snowstorm followed by a shot of true Arctic air. Not like it would last long around here, but I love a few mornings around zero with snow cover. Its awesome. Haven't had that since like 2014 or 15 maybe.
LOL
Go make a snowman.
The snowfall is over, and I like the random flakes falling and cloudy skies. Going for a hike shortly. This stuff will disappear quickly enough after today.
