jacindc Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Nearby Weatherbug temp has CRASHED to 34.1 after two hours at 34.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haudidoody Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Just heard DC is lifting the snow emergency at 2 PM? Seems kinda odd with whats left to come through. No issues on the roads here in Alexandria, most in my neighborhood are down to blacktop and wet with slush. Not even worth going out in this crap. Terrible storm.

MichaelScott Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Wish those yellows would make their way over to LYH. I want redemption for our changeover last night, lol.

dukeblue219 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 No issues on the roads here in Alexandria, most in my neighborhood are down to blacktop and wet with slush. Not even worth going out in this crap. Terrible storm. Same on the north side of the city from what I can see. Granted theres large snow banks on the sides of the road, but the roads themselves are fine. Everything is melting quickly with temperatures nearing 40. I think once again its a story of two different storms. At least we got good snow this time so I'm not complaining, but what those in the northern and northwestern burbs are seeing does not reflect DC and the immediate urban neighbors.

stormtracker Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Unless we are really lucky I think we can expect a 1-2 degree drop from current readings....I think 3 is pushing it unless it is insane so I think anyone 35 or under should be ok for accumulation...if you are 36, maybe...I think people 37 and higher right now are going to struggle later Agreed...sitting at 35/36 here now (my favorite wxbug says 34). I wish we could get to 33/34 BEFORE the precip hits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhode Islander in Balto Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 My temp has been steady for 2 hours, but my dp has dropped 2 degrees in that span. Thinking that is a positive sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I am glad you guys did well this morning, I have been rooting for you. I agree with Matt, surface temps might be an issue in some of the typically warmer places in the area, but even there I think a couple inches of really wet snow is likely, looking at the H7 track you should be good for some really nice convective bands this evening. I think from 5-8pm is gonna rock. I wouldn't be surprised for some of the NW suburbs to pick up another 4-8" where those bands set up. I also think the area has a shot to do well Saturday. I knew your time would come in this pattern with so many stj waves and cold available. Just had to wait for luck to change. Congrats!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueapple Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 36/35 here with light NNE winds. Serious meltage going on out there, looking for a drop in the temp soon. The solar radiation is at 135 watt/m2, which isn't helping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I absolutely can't complain about the 12+" from last night, but the cold, breezy drizzle I've had since 9:00 has been a pretty big buzzkill. It was cool having the neighborhood band together to clear everything up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arlwx Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I just shoveled on the Hill. No crunchy crust on top, and nothing but puddles and slush at the bottom. So it came off the sidewalk with no problem, but holy moly, it was heavy. Who gave me all those 7 solid inches in south Arlington VA?? Measured at 1030 am, just back in after a couple of hours shoveling. It was about 2 top inches of snow-sleet mix, and a slushy bottom half-inch, with lighter snow in the middle.

WVclimo Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Rates have picked up considerably, and winds are gusting to 30 mph. Snow not really sticking on the asphalt with the midday sun, but fresh coating everywhere else. This afternoon looks like its going to rock.

I'm starting to think it's going to pivot around LYH just to the south. Happy you guys are getting raked though. Blacksburg just said they're at 19.9".

WxMan1 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 36/35 here with light NNE winds. Serious meltage going on out there, looking for a drop in the temp soon. The solar radiation is at 135 watt/m2, which isn't helping. Not sure where you're from, but very similar conditions here in Crofton MD. 36/34, light NNE wind. Us east of I95 should get the best pcpn rates, but BL/surface temps will dictate how much of this accumulates... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEATHER53 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Threw in the towel at 5am with 9" so slept in, ate, and reporting for duty. Looks like 13/14" but will get better measurements. In the warm sector now at 35*. Disjointed looking radar so what is ahead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
