Big fat flakes mixing in with the sleet a bit. Radar is wild to the SW.
-
Trying to go back to more snow here, cc is right overhead as it has sunk back SE last 30 mins.
-
Just looked up dominion valley, looks lovely as well. I need to expand my horizons and play some more clubs in 2026. I play a fair number of rounds, but all local to my area for the most part.
-
Aldie, isn’t that where creighton farms is? That place looks amazing.
-
I’m with you on that window Bob, just told my buddy I think after Feb 6th is when our next “prime” window comes into play. It’ll be one of the coldest stretches between now and then that we’ve had in a LONG time. In general; interested to see how this winter ends wrt anomalies on temps. Going to be a shame up in there parts if we end up at 60% to climo snowfall given these temps.
-
The north/northeast winds are kicking up pretty quickly here. Some snow still mixed with heavy sleet which is picking up in rate now.
-
If we had good returns over us right now; we’d definitely still be getting good snow. It’s light snow mixed with pingers.
-
Good news is with these rates even when pingers mix in, we’ll have such a solid precip rate we should continue some good accumulations. @wxmeddler or @MillvilleWx what’s the ruling on measurement when p-type changes to sleet? Do you clear your measurement location? I know sleet is counted as SN in records, so need a refresher course.
-
Hardest rates of the storm right now in those yellows near the M/D line. Hoping we can get 2 more hours of this to hit the 10” mark.
-
Over 5” here and rates are about 1.5”/hr. Dumping, 13 degrees.
-
@MillvilleWx some aren’t getting great ratios, but I’d estimate in excess of 15:1 up our way so far. It accumulated extremely efficiently when it wasn’t heavy, now in SN+ it’s basically a fog.
-
You care to elaborate? 16 here with moderate snow, small flakes. 1/2” or so
-
I should remind myself the radar there also doesn’t pick up much of the action coming over the mountains.
-
Truthfully, I’m not too bullish on the radar at the moment. Seems spotty and scattered.
-
Soft reminder to everyone of the 3k Nam and 12k vs actual in Arkansas today, 0 forecasted by the models vs >5” that fell.
-
I guess I woulda been better 5 miles west of here on the other side of blue ridge summit? Haha
-
Great spot indeed, similar zone to my yard. I had us basically at the border of 7-11 & 9-13, so our calls line up well. Definitely has some boom potential if we get the QPF outputs of the 18z suite.
-
Don't you dare talk that dirty talk to me friend Where did you decide on setting up?
-
Huge DGZ for us.
-
Having map issues at the moment, so I'll give point forecast and ranges, I feel there will be a tight gradient on this one and the mix line will push north up through DC relatively quick but not all the way to PA with that much vigor. DC: 4-6" (closer to 6 in NW DC) Annapolis: 4-6" Baltimore: 6-8" Frederick: 7-10" Westminster: 7-10" Bel Air: 7-10" Winchester: 7-10" Hagerstown: 9-13" (right on the border of 7-10/9-13) York: 9-13" Gettysburg: 9-13"
-
It got warmer the last 2 runs vs earlier, like it always does once it gets under 12 hours. It ALWAYS looks good at hr 18
-
Did I miss your forecast map/call?
-
Looks dry Thanks PSU
-
I wish I knew why that saved as the smallest map of all time.
-
Making a final call map, does anyone have a blank map for me to use over MD, PA, VA? I don't have the same archived map DB i used to
