WEATHER53

Comical to try and sell that with 4” of snow everywhere and 15-25F with heavy sleet and snow and 20+mph winds that theDCA station has a “warmth” element creeping into it

This is crap about any micro climate warming DCA or decreasing snowfall during a raging snow and sleet storm . Let’s see if you do know something. Give me initials of the last mic at DCA. I can tell you he told me that it’s an FAA facility not a NWS one so they don’t exit the facility to do any measuring. The use a melt down device from outside the office and apply the ratio they believe us accurate

The several snow melting urination breaks slowed things up a wee bit!!!

Gonna do a temp breakdown along with confirmation for my HMP Weather Central location 5pm-25 5pm actual-24.9 7pm-20 9pm-17 11pn-14 1am 11 Overnight low-6

It is a slow go out there even with me getting minimal freezing rain. My 20’ long 3.5feet wide house sidewalk took about 45 minutes and would usually take 10-15 to shovel

You accumulated 9.5 but that compacted to 6.5

6” snow then 3” sleet which surpasses my 2.5 from 1994 9” storm total

At 6pm I now have 3” of sleet with a slight glaze recently preceded by 6” of snow to total 9”

I got some kind of shimmering stuff slowly sifting down amidst the sleet

My ruler says 8.5” and that’s about 6-6.5 snow and 2-2.5 sleet 19F

I don’t think the sleet balls will ever clump together as it’s 20 or less so nothing slick about them and there won’t be for days

Speaking of furnaces my gas fired is set at 71 and on for 12 minutes then off for 15 and repeat cycle. How about others?

All those emphatic I’m out statements made last night. Right now the DC beltway region and 30 miles in any direction is ranging 4” minimum , 6-8” generally and 9” max. It’s been bone dry sleeting at0.5”ph for 5+ hours and continuing This is a 8.5-9 on scale of 10 weather event

2pm update 2” of accumulated sleet since I cleared board at 10am bringing my total to 8.5”. 20F

Wed or Thurs
