Disc Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 About a 1/2" here east of Blacksburg. Still all snow so far.. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 I wish I was in McHenry for this...P&C there is 4-7” snow and 0.3-0.5” ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozz Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Headed to bed. I'll probably get up at my normal time. Even the HRRR (if it's worth anything) has improved, so I'd put 3" as my low bar. 3-6" is my call IMBY and it's right in line with both LWX and CWG. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWC Split Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 32/21 in Haymarket. No way that we wait until 5 am for precip to start falling. Looks like about 3 am according to radar, however I don't see us getting more than 3 inches in this neck of the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Snow on traffic cams as far north on I81 as Edinburg. Ground solidly white in Harrisonburg. Feels like a furnace outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scraff Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 This place is already a mad house. I love it! Think I’m getting a few hours in before my 5am coffee alarm. Gonna be a rocking obs thread in here for a good part of day. Just remember to get outside and enjoy whatever fluffy beat down we get. Do it before the dreadful pingers come knocking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddy1987 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 It is just dumping snow here right now. Meatball sized flakes coming down. Impressive to say the least. To add, best part is with these bands the temp went from 39 to 33 so once evaporational cooling commenced the temp plummets. Starting to get slushy on non grassy surfaces now, including driveway. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve25 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Is it my imagination or is the radar substantially ahead and healthier looking than lets say the HRRR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. It’s hard to believe that with a radar like that, this doesn’t come in hot and heavy around 6-8am. We’ll see if the global are right or the NAM/HRRR. Despite what some Mets say, I always like to blend GFS/Euro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you looked at the radar at all today? Or a weather app? Or this board? lol Not trying to be disrespectful, but you are coming to a winter storm obs and disc and are bewildered there is a winter storm that got the govt to close. That's just too funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaltimoreWxGuy Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 When you have widespread winter storm warnings, gonna have premature closures. Let’s face it, it doesn’t take as much snow these days to close things as it did 10-20 years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t worry, Euro will be here in 30 mins to piss in your cheerios and give you 2” before the flip. In all seriousness, I don’t trust the GFS at all with this storm.
