Scuddz Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Looks like 2, maybe 2 and a half in Suitland. Blowing around a lot and I'm not walking all the way out of here to measure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Temp falling off some again. 18.6 degrees. Quick measurement between 2.5" and 2.75". Not complaining about the snow, but the ratios here are going to end up really low. I could see less than 10:1.Yeah it's not the best powder ever. Pretty though. And it is March.

I had been saying around 3" (not that anyone cares lol)...I got off my lazy arse and actually measured...Damascus is a little over 4" with flurries at the moment.

columbiawx Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 This is from an hour ago in Columbia. The trees on the horizon are about 1/3 of a mile away. Decent drifts on the south side of this field. We're sitting at about 4" now with light snow still falling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 dumping down here in RIC now. Short range models gives us the snow this time. Thank god You guys in dc have had enough this year our turn now Because Richmond actually usually gets snow? Also, most places right around Baltimore and DC have been really screwed this year compared to their northwest suburbs. BWI's snow totals are ridiculously low when compared to places like Owings Mills and Westminster. Even the big storm was a bit of a disappointment in my location. Had about a foot or so and it compacted down to a few inches before the second part came through and gave us a couple more. Looks like the heaviest band is quickly rotating through now. I'm sitting at about 2.5 inches, so I think getting to four might be tough. Congrats to those that get in the 6-8 range or even possibly more.

Ka60 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I'm about 5mi NW of clarksburg and it's mostly been light to moderate here. I wonder if your position on the SW side of the ridge is making the difference. perhaps. my altitude (560') is not even as high as yours not that it matters on this event. my most recent measurement as of 5 minutes ago is 5.4" . it is beautiful and a good way to finish the season with.

nw baltimore wx Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Coming to the one in your hood next to Walgreens. Nice. Enjoy the drive. Stevenson Rd should be a thrill for the kids!

osfan24 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Definitely agree with the poster that said that they aren't very impressed with the snow but very impressed with the cold. I expected a lot more snow/much heavier rates, but the cold has been as advertised, maybe even a bit colder than modeled. Temperatures plummeting through the day into the low teens and possibly single digits in early March is pretty cool to experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
