Southern MD / Lower Eastern Shore weather discussion
Cobalt replied to PrinceFrederickWx's topic in Mid Atlantic
That's crazy! How much have you gotten this season vs average? -
I think this room is the secret.

Paging @dailylurker gotta get this place filled up again
-
Looking through, it appears as if only a couple pages are archived. Archived times I see are Feb 1st (most Jan 30th storm threads aren't accessible), Feb 4th 2010 (most storm threads aren't accessible either), and Feb 13th, 2010 (only goes to page 3, so no Blizzards of 2010). I will keep on looking though & hopefully I can get some good finds

March 12/13/14 Blizzard/Winter Storm/WWA etc
Cobalt replied to Bostonseminole's topic in New England
Sorry if I'm intervening, but that was late Jan 2010-Early Feb 2010. Many areas got 40-60" of snow in a 2 week span during that time -

Congrats on everyone who cashed in on this storm. Stay safe and warm! -
Just coming up with a thread I thought others may like. This is just a bunch of older posts/videos related to previous blizzards/winter storms. If anyone wants to add their personal videos/other videos or even other content (snowfall maps, OBS threads, whatnot).

Nice dude. Enjoy it -
Sweet! That's pretty impressive. Certainly a winter to remember for y'all. Enjoy!
-
Radar is pretty epic. How much snow do you have on the year vs your average?
-
Bump Not bumping this thread because of the redemption that followed, but because we need this thread. We've endured a tough 2 year stretch, with missed storms to the north, south, east, and west, and Salisbury has gotten more snow this winter than many of us have gotten in the past 2 years. We could be entering a decent period, especially for March standards. Might be jumping the gun, but let's see how it goes.

Updates on futility?
-
Yeah, my idea was to move to Winchester, or at least somewhere close to there.
-
That's absolutely insane. Didn't measure properly, but I'm guessing the Blizzard of 2016 hit about 28" here, and Feb 2010 was probably in the same ballpark, but I can't imagine getting more than 36". That's almost biblical levels of snowfall. Really makes me wanna move towards Western VA (out near Winchester) when I'm older. After all, big events like those are a once in a half decade thing, so it's almost like you can't miss them. Also, how much snow did you get on March 5th, 2013? Feb 5th 2010? Just curios.
-
That's completely insane. Can't imagine 5" per hour.
-
Also, I'm guessing the storm was a very fast mover? Unleashing that amount of QPF in 1 day is pretty crazy.
-
Heard about it, and only read about it in a CWG article. Reminds me of what I saw while browsing through the Snowpocalypse 2009 thread where a poster from Long Island had gotten 21" in 7 hours. Insane.
-
Less than 10:1 ratio in a HECS. Was it a paste bomb? Sounds awesome!
-
Nailed it!
-
For me in my short lifespan: Feb 2010 (Was young at the time, but I remember a ton of it) Jan 2016 (Lame aftermath, but the storm itself was magical) Dec 2009 (Probably will never be topped for the month of December) Feb 2014 (Got a dog the month before, and we had to shovel a path for her to use the bathroom outside. Kind of lame aftermath) Jan 2011 (Paste bomb in January. What else can you ask for?) March 2015 (Perfect end to that season)
-
Late bump. Can't believe we're nearing in on 10 years since this storm.
-
Only time we're ever in the bullseye
-
In all seriousness, this is an issue. Good news is, typically extremely dry periods are followed by extremely wet periods. I hold out hope that we get our share of rain this summer, but as you pointed out, too little too late if it were the case.

I'm experiencing it pretty harshly too. Here's the view of my front lawn:
