Not looking forward to work tomorrow... 3-11 and most of my cashiers will call out...but its also usually dead after a big snow

Easy! I think we could measure 10 or more......my imby prediction is 8.5"

Debeaches, seen the roads? I work at the food lion and when I was able to get out of there they were snow covered and its only getting worse

Coming down good in Lewes... Maybe just over a inch so far.....beautiful snow too, fine like sanding sugar and it sparkles

This looks good for a. 5-8" event for all of us in this thread... Hopefully someone can pull some double digit readings as well

https://vimeo.com/119659716 huge snowflakes pouring down!!-

Some pretty heavy echoes showing up just on the other side of the Chesapeake, so here's hoping

I actually didn't know that either....I was just referencing the cold air severity..... But God wouldn't it be awesome to have a repeat performance!

You always say that Debbie.... My hope is for snow to mix and obviously rain is always possible over here but we are dealing with a strength and depth of cold dense Arctic air we don't often see....I mean I'm seeing comparisons to the outbreak of February 1996 being made by more than one major media outlet in the area. I remain hopeful and confident that this is out best shot at significant snow so far this winter.

agree completely and you're already beginning to see a trend back north west on the 12z ensemble

Maybe we can get something out of next weeks storm...

About a inch from the over preforming clipper at the beginning of January

Debeaches, Dan satterfield from wboc posted on his Facebook the other day that he would be shocked if we don't have snow on the ground a week from now. Also that the Chesapeake bay could freeze over.

More freezing rain last night than I expected...grass and metal surfaces are a sheet of ice

2/5-6/2010....too young to remember 96,PDII was only about a foot, but snowpocalypse was just truly amazing, I can't even remember the exact total I got anymore but I know it was over 20"...the only time I can remember the NWS snowfall maps go up, and up and up, until the actually ran out of colors for the key and had to shift the entire color scale to make it fit. I work at a grocery store and I have never seen barren shelves like I did before that storm and the second one that followed. I lived in an apartment less than 1/4 mi from my parents house at the time(right behind my store which was just across the road from their house) and I can still remember having to suit up like a Arctic expedition just to go over there....I have lived here my whole life, know these roads and streets like the back of my hand, you could drop me blindfolded and drunk and I would know my way around... But walking from my apartment to their house, what is normally a 5minute walk took 25-30 minutes, half of the because I actually got lost and severely disoriented and began to actually see stars in my field of vision(I have read this is a beginning sign of snow blindness?) I actually had to stop in the middle of the street (not that it mattered there were no vehicles at all and no plows whatsoever) and regain my bearings and catch my breath before I continued. The snow was so deep and totally unplowed that you couldn't tell where a road or street ended or where the curb was. Just truly a epic storm I wonder if I'll ever see again.

Check his Facebook.... Pegged the north trend before it started on the models.

I dont recall having any rain at all during that storm, though...

I can still remember cashiering during that storm, and having to hide gallons of milk for myself and fellow cashiers during our ten minute breaks. Or at one point being one of 2 cashiers in the whole storm, the night before it started(we weren't scheduled to have many people on that night, and although I begged people to stay late for me, with lines down the aisles, no one did, so it was me the night supervisor, the night cashier and the manager on duty(who was a new transfer from another low volume store, it was his first day) The store ran out of all produce, all milk(except organic, and there wasn't much of that left either) and all bread and most junk foods; it was kinda scary seeing all the shelves totally empty, and the people acting like the world was coming to an end(even funnier were the oblivious folks who came in and didnt understand why we were so busy) Or the lady who bitched me out because we did not have wrapping paper or party favors for her sons birthday party, and the kid throwing a temper tantrum(at that point it was already pouring snow.) WE had to shut down the courtesy desk just to be able to run enough registers(many angry gambling addicts that night) Leaving around 11 that night, there was already 2-3" on the ground, and there were bulldozers plowing the parking lot. In the time it took for us to go around the car and clear snow off, it had already accumulated again.
