MichaelScott Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Several of these bands have 20,000ft echo tops. That's an absolutely insane cluster. Hope it holds up by the time it makes it our way (LYH). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Snow looks to be moderate here. Thinking from the sounding I looked at someone around 09Z may here thunder if they are up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshfsu123 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Moderate/Heavy snow at Navy Yard (DC) --- piling up big time now. Temp is holding steady at 22 degrees (tends to be on the cold side using the weatherbug station at Nationals Stadium but only by a couple degrees). Definitely approaching or already passed an inch (will measure in a bit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiscaster Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I just played the Nexrad regional loop. It seems like the returns to the south and west are drying out? Lots of gaps in the precip developing. And look at that sh!+ off the NC coast. Was this modeled? Precip looks spotty once the "deathband" pushes through around 2am if more precip does not develop.

ravensrule Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 ravensrule: where did you go? I hadn't read about it. Sorry you missed this one. Germantown, MD -- light snow, 25.8 degrees, about 1" Miami Beach, at least I had an amazing dinner and drinks tonight but it is little solace. Enjoy the snow.

Jebman Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Steady moderate SN pouring in Dale City Va, 20 miles SSW of DCA with 22 degrees. Have a delightful, refreshing light breeze out of the NNE as well. 1.3 inches on all surfaces, lawns really looking better and better with time. Even larger dendrites mixing in. This stuff looks incredible in the streetlights. Very, very sparkly as other posters have mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 btw, so I can make relevant observations, can someone please define -sn, sn and +sn for me? snow intensity is based on the visibility as long as you don't have fog. Visibility greater than 1/2 mile is considered light between 1/4 and 1/2 mile vis is moderate below 1/4 mile is light. It can be tough to judge at night.

Well I'm hoping it happens in MoCo....my daughter is asking me if it will happen as she has heard me fantasize about it. I told her it getting Thunder-snow is like spotting a unicorn...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
