thin line though. hopefully the band becomes more consolidated or the northern piece makes its away across. either way, a successful little event.
-
this next batch looks mostly elevation enhanced, but hopefully it trickles down to the lowlanders.
-
yea, i feel like this is a case of just being right in the beeline of a minor system. they happen here sometimes and i guess this is one of those quirky ones that the models don't pick up very well.
-
interested to see how long this goes. this could produce 2" if we're talking it going until early afternoon. greens are sagging south of my area, but still some decent returns showing up.
-
the greens are 100% legit producing. sizable flakes, sticking everywhere. 17 degrees.
-
Overperformer
-
50 degree temps sound very good right now. looking forward to the thaw.
-
got clipped here, but still some northern plains style snow.
-
ha, i liked it, but i gotta put feb 21 over it. that was one of my all time favorite overachieving storms here. that squall was rare, though. just caked snow for 2 hours.
-
simply put, that squall was legendary. it was essentially lake effect snow for an hour. probably about twice as heavy as the final band that came through yesterday.
-
i might have lucked out with that last band. huge flakes for about a half hour. pretty sure it put down an inch here. overall, a nice event. now onto tomorrow/Friday.
-
This last band did work. May have gotten over an inch from it.
-
picking up again with that final band. probably a good time to step outside again.
-
yep, looks like one more band to go. this really did hightail, though isn't that how cold fronts usually work anyway. just glad that we were able to get more than choppy flakes.
-
any kind of daytime accumulating snow in this area is a win. this is gonna play in a role in my final grade. extra credit type of a system lol.
-
yea i thought gfs was solid. consistent throughout. little choppy on qpf, but overall it had a similar look. anafronts are cool. lol seeing yellows out to the west, so rockville/olney might pile for an hour or two.
-
it's legit outside.
-
possible overperformer in progress. grass and parking lot stickage. roads should be caving soon or after dark (assuming it's still snowing steady).
-
yea, it's starting to transition to all snow here. about to head out and see what's going on. i think the next few hours are the good stuff.
-
cwg might end up nailing the timeframe of the best stuff. 3pm looks pretty good for the real action.
-
just can't stay in the accumulating rates long enough here, but it looks like the next little wave should do it. the darker greens are producing. the lighter greens, not so much.
-
steadier here now that i'm under the greens.
-
been in a bit of a snowhole here. not gonna do anything with these types of rates. gonna need that next line to move east.
-
lol yea. you're only about 50-75 feet higher than me. silver spring into dc is where it may matter more. kinda interesting seeing all the reports and how they differ with respect to elevation.
-
i think so too, but it helps having that extra 100-200 feet elevation. maybe i should go to my cousin's in olney for happy hour lol.
