mappy Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 83 must be awful as people are bailing on to York Road. It's a parking lot outside my house. Big rigs just chilling. Yes. I spoke with my mother 15 minutes ago. She's going to the shrewsbury exit and has been on 83 for more than an hour. She was at your exit when we spoke. Yeah, it's pretty bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feloniousq Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Point and click is still 1 to 3. There's almost 3 out there now. Guess LWX took the holiday today? That was a really good midday write up, and then I guess they all went home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshfsu123 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Snow is building up on grass here at Navy Yard --- also sticking to icy roads and sidewalks... they did not treat the roads and it is noticeable. Cars are completely covered. If I had to guess, we are over .5 inch some far --- maybe .75 inch. Snow is at low-medium rate right now. Will go out in an hour or two and measure it. Temp at 31 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazeKing Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Hewg flakes in the big band by Fredericksburg..A dusting on everything so far but its the best snow yet this winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 I think I can pull 3"+ if I'm lucky. 2" now with 1/2"hr rates I think. This stuff won't be blowing around after the freeze too much. Maybe the top layer later but the first 2" will become drywall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmeddler Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 For those who are calling for an end by 3z, there's still stuff back in Pittsburg and Cleveland. If you watching the LWX radar it looks like it ends at the mnts but it really doesn't. We're at max difluence at 500mb. It will wind down but probably not stop until much later.

I am in a radar hole. But it is still snowing although lightly. I am so glad everyone got into the action this time. It's more fun this way.

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I think I can pull 3"+ if I'm lucky. 2" now with 1/2"hr rates I think. This stuff won't be blowing around after the freeze too much. Maybe the top layer later but the first 2" will become drywall. finally!.JPG Where about in Rockville are you? I go to the shopping district in Rockville (along Rockville Pike) pretty often, which isn't all that far from me in Silver Spring. You probably do better in terms of snow, but not that far away, so was curious. At any rate, everything is white now here, even on the roads. I'll probably head out, maybe even with the camera. Will post a photo maybe, depending on how things look. LWX has kind of upped the accumulations for southern MoCo now, to 1-2". Not long ago they had around an inch. But their point-and-click forecast is calling for "rain and snow becoming all snow after 2AM..." which is way off. I think they're playing catch-up for many places?

Mrs.J Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Better get a drink ready for him. Yep did just that. He just got home. He did not take 270 though. He took 28 and when that got bad he ditched onto back roads. It took longer but he said the traffic was moving.Looking on the deck appears to be around 4".
