  1. 2/22-23: 2.2” 16.5” season total
  2. Beautiful dendrites falling even though the sun is trying to peak out. Pretty sure I tacked on a little more since 7. Will measure soon.
  3. Exactly. I think I had at least 0.25” and maybe as much as 0.4” of liquid between 4-10pm yesterday and had 1.3” of snow…
  4. Elevation and marginal temps obviously a huge factor as were rates. For MBY, I’m sorta puzzled by how inefficiently it accumulated in the 5-9pm window. Like I legit probably had like 4-5:1 ratios and temps were 32-33. And those were big aggregates!
  5. Final reports TBD, but broadly across the metro corridor and central MD, looks more like a "slight" bust than a major one. Most of the original WSW areas did barely verify. Eastern HoCo and BWI area (i.e., me) clearly got stuck betwixt and between, which I was sorta worried about. DCA stunk because DCA had like a high of 54 yesterday or something probably.
  6. DC and Baltimore in every Nina beach blizzard
  7. Of course. I just reported 2.0” officially. Still lightly snowing.
  8. 1.3” official report at 10pm. Never trust a Nina beach blizzard. Maybe that IVT gets me overnight still.
  9. Yeah, a lot of the mesos and even the euro showed the norlun moving over us as it weakened. But maybe we can get a little juice with it? At the moment just hoping I can hit the bottom of my original 2-6" range. Maybe 3" isn't totally out of the question, but could be tough. Yeah, IAD going to be clear winner. I bet BWI is going to have some trivial amount as well.
  10. I never think it’s that simple to just subtract 2F. It was a dog shit antecedent airmass. It happens. It was dog shit for the beaches too and they just won, that’s a Nina for you.
  11. 0.7”. 0.3” last hour. Goes without saying but even a seasonal airmass leading into this would have made a big difference
  12. Sidewalks and neighborhood paved surfaces all slushy and getting snowy. Wind picking up. Probably accumulated 0.2-0.3” in my 40 min @Jebman Jebwalk
  13. At freezing or very close now in Columbia. Ratios should jump up nicely with these rates and flakes.
  14. Grass getting slushy. Absolutely dumping right now…
  15. All snow giant flakes. My PWS (which doesn’t do great when it’s wet) has lost like 5F in the last 90 mins. But neighbors’ suggest about 34 now.
  16. It’s trying. Temps are definitely dropping. Come on snow, be the storm we know you can be!
  17. Temps seems to be ticking down. Maybe a few flakes mixing back in.
  18. My kids are getting antsier than me waiting for snow
  19. Yeah it’s got to be something like that. Drizzle still with pretty respectable reflectivity
  20. Radar would seem to suggest more then drizzle and yet…
  21. To get accumulation, I think the first step is to increase rates above drizzle lol
