Yea it's always kinda been there as @WxUSAF mentioned, but it's been especially bad this year. Interesting thing is that you always see a fake radar maxima just north of Germantown...that's the water tower from WSSC at the intersection of Kings Valley Rd & Ridge Rd.

wawarriors4 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Radar just kind of blossomed of the west of Stafford and Fredericksburg, interested to see if any of that actually makes it to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True....at least in those areas that saw snow. It's overperformed for every one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Models generally agreed on .04 qpf for leesburg I see no reason we don't have an outside shot at an inch. If so that's a 4" week on two legit cold storms. I love shitty patterns 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Checking local news out there, seems this event has over-performed in Pittsburgh area too. Maybe a good sign this continues here for a few more hours?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 The roads are snow covered except in the spots that they were heavily brined/salted. It is a dry snow, though, so they aren't actually that slick. As long as you are paying attention and making deliberate decisions, travel is fine. Of course, those qualities are in short supply in this region so it'll probably be a cluster. Flake size has picked up again. Nice little event. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErinInTheSky Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Parking lot has caved in Germantown, steady snow coming down, definitely a 0.3" coating on everything so far. May get 0.5" or more out of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 the greens are 100% legit producing. sizable flakes, sticking everywhere. 17 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I already have over half an inch of powder from this. Roads are a disgrace. Solid ice everywhere. Another overperformer that might get me to over 20 inches on the winter. This is the 8th day with snow falling out of the past 20 days for my area. What a fantastic 3 week stretch of winter this has been. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 By the way. I am surprised at the quality of the flakes from this. Not rims or needles. But not dendrites either. Some kind of planes I am guessing. And decent size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
