  1. Surface temperatures fall during the event with the low going south of us.
  2. There are some excellent resources here: https://www.meted.ucar.edu/index.php
  3. DEC - 8.7" JAN - 8.0" FEB - 9.9" (so far) TOT- 26.6" (Long-term seasonal average : 26.5")
  4. Light snow still going and getting breezy now. 3.7" so far. 26.4" for the season, which is our average snowfall for a whole winter here.
  5. Best rates of the evening here now. Half-mile visibility. Band looks to continue for a while. 3/4" in the past hour. 2.8" total. Snow depth back to 6". Down to 28.5 degrees.
  6. Came across this quote in a Baltimore Sun article about the ‘94 ice storms: Feb. 10-11, an extraordinary 4 inches of sleet fell at BWI. On the 11th, the precipitation type changed 10 times. Can you imagine the reaction of this board if we had a repeat of that ? Lol.
  7. Safely in the snow here. 1.8" so far and coming down nicely. MRB is 31/30 with light snow and 1.0 mile vis. OKV is 32/32 with light rain.
  8. 0.50” of sleety snow accumulation after 3 hours of precip. Now finally seeing all dendrites as rates increase. 29 degrees.
  9. 33/20. Overcast with light and variable winds. Baro 30.31"
  10. Friend reports decent snow falling now in Moorefield. Shouldn't be too long for you to start seeing it.
  11. That's the second time this winter that my county has been included in the same advisory as DC metro. I guess its just a broad brush early call to be fine-tuned as we close in on the storm? Don't remember it happening in past years.
  12. Every model in the 12Z suite so far dumps 4-7" here tonight. Probably a good time for me to read more and post less.
  13. I was surprised this morning at how conservative LWX went with their overnight package, after some bullish hints from their office yesterday. That said, the point forecast for my area has under 0.5" today, 2-4" tonight and under 1 inch tomorrow, suggestive of more snow than the 1-3 the WWA calls for.
  14. It's like a vinyl LP record that is scratched and keeps repeating the same groove.
  15. Looks like a nice hit for you on the 00Z GFS. Hope it verifies.
  16. Crazy to see the metros with temps in the low 50's. High here today was 35 with a 3" snow cover.
  17. I had ten straight hours of freezing rain with temps in the teens in College Park, MD on 1/17/1994. Still one of the wildest weather anomalies I have ever experienced. Everything was caked in ice, both vertical and horizontal surfaces.
  18. 700mb is warmer than 850. Must be a lot of warmth between 750-800mb with those ripping SW winds aloft.
  19. That day 7 storm starts with temps in the northern Shenandoah Valley in the mid-teens. Never gets to freezing for the duration with 1.00"+ QPF.
  20. I really hope we get the 15:1 ratios that product keeps spitting out.
  21. Temps in the low 30's. Glad it's falling at night.
  22. Yep. The 3” I got from 1/30 was only patchy spots by the morning of 2/2 and the 4” later that day was gone by the time the big dog started. Actually, during the afternoon of 2/5 I had non-accumulating snow for a while.
