Happy Snowfall to all the DC Snowgeese!!!. I had 1/4 inch in a squall yesterday evening.
Today is very unusual for 11/22 and is a perfect illustration that under the right atmospherics in 1965, 1985, 2005 or 2025............................. It is going to snow on the D.C. region on Nov . 22.
This is not supposed to be possible on Nov. 22! ............................ Keep hoping for the right atmospherics which will always deliver for you............................
You will generally witness a 4 degree drop per 1000 ft. elevation. My snowfall observation through the past 40 years says 3 inches per 1000 ft..
I have a lot of experience comparing 1800 ft. to 2800 ft .
According to the GFS/ECMWF, your backyard at 2500 ft. will probably get a foot.
At Snowshoe, the elevation will likely create whiteout conditions with wind, fog and blinding snow.
Nice weather thru Monday.......................... The rest of the week should be wild with a combination of heavy mountain snow showers, lowland showers and windy conditions.
As I posted a few weeks ago. All weak Nina's have produced below normal snow for my area back to 1950 except 1964 - 65 which was .50" above normal with 24.50".
After a very cold low of 21.8 this morning....................... A high of 48.......................................
Close to an inch of rain in the offing thru Friday.
Maybe 2 inches of snow in northern Highland above 3500 ft.
Wow!! What a difference a day makes for qp potential from noon Thursday - 9 am Friday.
My 3 model blend has increased from .26" at 2 pm yesterday to .95" 2 pm today.
ECM 1.24", GEM 1.07", GFS .53"................. I'll take it after .10" in the past 40 days.
Jan 3, 2022- 8 inches of snow and drifting.
Jan 7, 2022 - 3 inches snow.
Jan. 17, 2022 - 8.5 inches snow.
Jan. 28 - 1.3" snow
Feb. 13 - 2.0" snow
March 12 - 3.0" snow
21-22 gave me above normal snowfall !!
How about this, guys?
Widespread??? No real doubt, Saturday thru Monday.............
More than any time during the past 30 days!!!
The question is: Will it be .10" or 1.00"?????
