Southern MD / Lower Eastern Shore weather discussion

[Lowershoresadness]

roads caved, it's really coming down. now the real accumulation begins. not windy yet but once that hits whoa

[SnowtoRain]

Winds noticeable now rates back up, 32.2 road is white, eyeballing 2" on coldest surfaces. Snow flakes size much smaller 

[SnowtoRain]

Looks like heaviest snow is consolidating just to my east. I would guess Easton ends up around 5" total.

Heavy snow, fine flakes. Estimate 3-4" otg. It's accumulating as fast as you can shovel it

Roughly the same in Easton, temps here now down to 31.6.

Power flickering. Lots of reports of outages throughout Delaware

Definitely a heavy hitter throughout Delaware. Hoping you all keep power and get double digit snow

I’ve been watching this cam on and off all day. I love watching beach blizzards.

Unless something crazy happens I do not see much more accumulations for my backyard. Around 4" for now, probably eek out another inch before all is said and done. Looks like someone from Salisbury to Dover is going to see 10 to 15"

Absolutely insane conditions over here. Wind is roaring. House getting pelted by tree branches. Lights constantly flickering/dimming. Neighborhoods all around me are without power.

 

42,000 without power throughout the county.

Wow- up to 42000 now?  Wind is really ripping

This is without a doubt the worst storm I have experienced since 2010. Whiteout conditions currently. Couldn't even take video or pictures. Impossible to measure what's accumulated, but easily over 8-10" so far. Winds continue to howl. Can hear cracking trees in the distance. Snow accumulating on vertical surfaces.

46,000 without power in DE, the majority in Sussex County. It's holding here for now, but frequent flickering and dimming.

Yeah looks pretty crazy on radar and road cameras. Tame here in the west side of Delmarva, maybe 4 to 5" with wind

Sorry you're missing out on the big totals. I guess the east bump in some of the . modeling was real, or the precip shield just didn't extend back enough
