I’m already punting the Thursday system (unless someone has a compelling reason why I should care). 

My current expectation is flizzard to sleet to rain to maybe I should dig that hole for my new tree so it will fill with rain water.

Happy Valentine's Day

Icy drizzle continues. 28/28. La Plata

Rain coming down the heaviest all day. Younger pines are starting to lean a bit. Some melting on warmer surfaces. 28/28 La Plata

I'm so confused. I'm way, way northwest from LaPlata and I'm currently watching what little ice I had on my car windshield melting and sliding off the car. There's literally no ice here.

Dunno what to tell ya. Was just reporting what I was seeing at my house way, way southeast of you an hour ago. I have an odd little micro climate in my part of La Plata that usually has me slightly cooler than other areas of La Plata. I have reported caved roads when another poster from the east side of 301 had just started getting snow to stick. 

Everything is aglaze, lol. Cars are encased. Icicles forming on the edges of the portico. Been in this freezing drizzle for about 2 hours. 26/26 La Plata

The Euro has been on that crack rock lately. I'll wait for the NAM. What a time!

A surprise 1.5” here- my act of self-sacrifice in the panic room yesterday has already paid dividends to my fellow southern Marylanders. 

Did you ever knooooow that you're my heeeeeeroooooooooooooooooooooooo. 

Measured 1.0" that fell overnight after the trace yesterday. La Plata

Well, the light accumulating snow continues. Can record a trace for today. When combined with yesterday's trace that puts me at... one moment while I tabulate.........

......... a trace so far. Good night y'all. 29/29 La Plata

Light, accumulating snow. 30/29 La Plata

Flipped to light snow a little while ago. 32/32 La Plata

Actually, better defined as a wintry mix.

Sleet transitioning to sleety sleet. I did have a few flurries mixing in, but a neighbor drove by and they blew away. So there's that. 32/32 La Plata

It rained in the plains. 32/32 La Plata

I don't need to tell y'all that La Plata is a snow town. Hmph. Back to light snow after period of sleet. A few pingers mixing in. Car tops and trash can lids BURIED. Recording a strong trace. 32/32.

I posted this in the wrong thread a little while ago, lol. No precip at the moment.

Just bumping this to manage my own expectations.

The Event thread is uh... eventful.

This is the content I log in for.

As quickly as it turned on, the snow machine has turned off. After 6 hours of light to moderate snow, I measured a compacted inch. We got hours of some of the biggest flakes I have seen since 2016. A very pretty morning. 9/10 by Florida girl standards. One point docked for compacting and melting immediately. 32/32 La Plata, MD
