clskinsfan Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 This band that just popped up over Winchester was modelled very well by the HRRR. Maybe that is a good sign for the band later for you MD guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErinInTheSky Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Something looks to have formed just to my west here in Germantown. Maybe another snow band. Would be nice to squeeze an extra 1" out of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris78 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Moderate snow. Picked up another inch since switching back to snow Up to 7" of snow/sleet now. I've surpassed my seasonal total of last year. Had to go back to last season's snow totals thread to check. I only had 5.5 last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MountainGeek Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 made it to 10" here, still snowing pretty good...it's a sandwich of about 7" snow, 1" hard crust of frozen sleet/ice, and then 2" of snow on top.....this is going to make an AWESOME glacier for the next few days. Wonder if snowcover can hold through Christmas...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 Lots of sleet and maybe a few icy flakes mixed in. Fresh coating on everything. Measured 0.2”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhineasC Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Some flakes mixing in. There is sleet all the way into NW NJ in this garbage storm, FYI. So those who get to double digits are very lucky indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zdudswx Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Got to see extremely heavy snowfall in December after almost 2 years of barely seeing snow at all. Pretty pleased with how today turned out considering our climo and barely any cold air in place. Hopefully a precursor for a somewhat active winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the start of a winter that shall be long remembered in the Mid Atlantic, and torrential snows are coming soon to places that saw mix or rain today. You can Bank on it! Better Yet, Bank on Bitcoin lol! It hit 22000 today! Thats up 2500 just in the past 9 hours! Dont forget to pile that snow up HIGH on the north side of sunlight-blocking objects like your house! Pile it super high! Make sure everyone KNOWS you worship snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surpassed last years totals between today and Monday's system. This was a pretty formidable storm for our parts. Great way to kick off winter.

nj2va Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 A bit of a lull for 30 minutes with pixie dust but back to full on dendrite pours. Winds have shifted from the east to out of the north. 23 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Was hoping this last tiny band might squeeze out a couple snowflakes. Looks like it’s sleet. Oh well - managed to start and end the event with frozen. Much better than the total disaster scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I can't get an accurate measurement on the new stuff...wind is howling up on my ridge...blowing everything around. I would guess around 9" total so far. @HighStakes I am going to go with your measurement for the post sleet part of this storm...the wind up here is just too ferocious to get any kind of accurate measure. You might be more sheltered down there to get a better idea. Also...if we can get that band forming now to our SW to pivot through here in the next 2 hours we might break 10". Definitely a good way to start the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
