  1. Lol when have we seen this before ? 3-hr precip valid 10 a.m. Sunday
  2. 6:00 p.m. snow depth in my yard Sun 1/31- 5.0” Mon 2/1- 9.0” Tue 2/2- 9.0” Wed 2/3- 6.0” Thu 2/4- 5.0”
  3. You probably average a bit more than here with your better latitude and elevation, but 26" is seasonal climo for my area. That's a nice spot to be in with most of February and all of March still ahead of us.
  4. Its rare for my location to see more than double the snowfall that IAD receives. So I expect that difference to narrow as we go forward.
  5. Please also inform the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts.
  6. I actually did better on 2/3/2010 (3.9") than I did on 1/30/2010 (3.0") All part of 54" in 12 days, which I doubt I will ever see again here.
  7. Deepening low pressure on the OBX. Nice area-wide hit.
  8. I was in high school in Cumberland in '77 and it was the biggest waste of non-stop cold weather I've ever experienced. We had flurries for weeks and when we did get an inch or two of snow, it turned into a glacier in a day or so. If you like cold temps, that season was legend. But the snow wasn't the kind you shovel or sweep. A chisel would have been more appropriate.
  9. For this area, the record low temp on 1/20/1985 was just outside of the top ten coldest nights in the 100-year period of record, at 11th all-time. And the record low max of 1/21 was one of the coldest 7 days ever. But as @WEATHER53 can tell you, the winds with those temps made it even more extreme. An air mass deserving of a "brutally cold" forecast. As Ji said, the cold shot aligning with Reagan's second Inaguration made it more memorable also.
  10. Storm total of 11.9" on 1.22" of precip. First time in 15 years at this location that I have recorded measurable snow on four consecutive days.
  11. Picked up 0.3” of wind-blown snow overnight. More snow showers rolling through now. Lots of blowing snow also. Driveway that had been cleared now has some decent drifts across it. Up to 11.7” from this system.
  12. Strange track with the low going from the Smokies to the Tidewater of VA, then due north to Nanticoke, before shunting back off the NJ coast. In a positively tilted trough ? With no capture ? Must be the Icon doing Icon-y things.
  13. I only measured 3" in that 1/30/2010 storm. Just barely made it inside the sharp northern cutoff. I don't think there was much north of Hagerstown with that one.
  14. Its a website: Weather Radar | Weather Underground (wunderground.com)
  15. Seconded. I installed mine when we bought the house here in 2006. It has worked nearly flawlessly all of that time. The one time I had a problem, from a lightning strike, Davis support was excellent.
  16. That's beautiful. Which direction is that view ?
  17. DEC - 8.7" JAN - 8.0" FEB - 4.3” (so far) TOT- 21.0” (Long-term average through Feb 2: 13.8”)
  18. Storm is finishing the way it started a long time ago, with pixie dust of varying intensity. 11.2" storm total with a snow depth of 9". Puts me over 20" for the season.
  19. First double-digit snow here since the 15” I measured on March 21, 2018. And only the third one since Feb 2014. 36 hours of continuous precip now.
  20. 2.3” of new snow since 7:00 a.m. 10” now for a storm total. And the band that has been pounding HGR all day is finally making its move toward my yard. Snow picking up in intensity quickly.
  21. The better radar echoes look to have finally breached the Potomac. Things should get fun for a while. Good luck !
