WVclimo Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 In my neck of the woods, these are the only double-digit snowfalls after 3/10. Would love to crack this historic list: 13.8" -- 3/13/1993 13.7" -- 3/16-18/1928 13.6" -- 3/14-15/1999 12.0" -- 3/29/1942 11.0" -- 3/14-16/1937 10.0" -- 3/12/1968 10.0" -- 4/28/1928 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monday/Tuesday night Jebwalks will be epic. I took a tiny bit of crap for complaining in February 2015 in a very similar setup because some were celebrating a north trend on the front runner wave that ended up a 3-5" snow for DC area but I was upset because it was screwing up the bigger threat behind it. Same general setup replayed only it went the way I wanted this time. I'll take the chance at a dynamic event over a sure 3-4" anyday. But I know not all agree and that's cool.

gymengineer Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 This 18Z GFS run is bonkers--- two more accumulating snows after the Monday/Tuesday one, including a meandering cut-off low next weekend. Remember when PSU asked us what would it take in March for us to look back on this season as acceptable/so-so? This run verbatim would do it for me.

09-10 analogy Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Quick check of the data: there have been 12 Marches with 10" or more accumulation for DC, going back to 1888. (Same number as December.) Most occurred earlier in the 20th century or late 19th century. March 1914 tops at 19.3". Most recent, of course, was March 2014 (12.7"). Before that, the last double digit was March 1960 at 17.1." (DCA only recorded about 6 1/2 or so during the Superstorm.) I know I'm cherry-picking a bit here, but between 1888 and 1918 there were equivalent numbers of Januaries and Marches with 10" monthly accumulations (six each).

Roger Smith Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Sure, it starts developing later but if the 18z GFS verified it would have a wide swath of 20-30 inch snowfalls in PA and NY, the initial phase from east of FL is something similar but if this gets a boost on later model runs (the FL component) then it could come to resemble 93 more in states from SC to WV too. I'm happy to see any kind of major snowfall event but this one could be tweaked into something awesome, at the moment it just begins to develop a bit later than ideal (meaning 10" instead of 20"). I didn't experience the 93 storm except for seeing its high cloud off to my southeast, but wasn't it somewhat too far west for heavy snow in DC-BAL? I seem to remember 30" in WV somewhere.

caviman2201 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I've reached the point where my excitement has overwhelmed my pessimism. I've held off long enough. If this implodes now, actual sadness will be in order for a few days. Anyone else get that sensation where despite being a skeptic, you realize you finally believe a storm will happen and you're afraid of the letdown if it doesn't pan out? Ugh what a bizarre hobby. Cheers to a (hopefully) joyous weekend of model watching... Next bad run (and you know there'll be one) I'm on weeniecide watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
