BlizzardNole Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I am impressed with RadarScope -- as soon as it had red/blue over me, I switched to snow/sleet. Eyeballing close to 3" just NE Germantown; hoping we don't go above freezing and maybe get a little period of snow later tonight. Nice start to winter!

When they draw it going over us its too far. We need that arrow to stop near VA Beach for us to get the cute puffy cloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have loved this if you were home. The rates are absolutely insane. We are approaching 3" easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paleocene Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 We've got rain mixing in with a few sleet pellets here in Silver Spring. Neighborhood roads are a mess. Temp at 30 dew 29. Some very mild icing visible on tree limbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestrobjwa Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Starting to hear pingle bells out here now...pretty quick changeover.

Nice driveway snow walls already. First clearing of snowboard and I had 4.2 inches in the board. That means I picked up 1.7 inches in the past hour. Got another .3 in the 10 minutes it took me to shovel the driveway. 4.2 inches so far and still dumping. Under 1/4 mile vb for sure Congrats man. I think you’re primed. Here’s hoping you get over 12” brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still safe from mix up here in Union bridge.... but not sure we hold too much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Been in a lull for a while with only 0.5” new snow in the past hour. But the temp has continued to fall, now at 24.6, the low so far for the day. Radar looks great for the next few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Nooooooo. Hearing the pinging now. Big flakes mixed with sleet. Pretty disappointing given that I was on the edge of the mesoscale bubble and HRR had me snowing for 2-4 more hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Pretty weenie run from the 18Z HRRR. It does have the sleet line making just to Winchester for part of an hour. But it has almost another 1.0 QPF as snow for WInchester north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
