Stormfly Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Stick a fork in this winter! Pines are groaning at winds. A good shellacking from this morning's rain. Snow stuck to EVERYTHING facing north! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osfan24 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Damn, down to 29 now. This had potential. Just couldn't quite put it all together at my location. Loved some of the pics posted by the favored areas, though. Looked like a nice event for those spots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the quality of the snow should be better as well. Temps are nice and cold out here. We'll see. Where you are there is a decent chance for that as you already have some snow otg and the cold entrenched. My recent posts were more about the general setup and the tendency for the outcome to be underwhelming, despite those weenie snow maps everyone loves lol. I got exactly what I expected here. Maybe I can get a band or 2 come through that will whiten the ground a bit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormfly Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 My border collie bounces off the walls if he isn't outside running and snow and mud days put a damper on things. I suited up and went for a walk. He had a blast gathering sticks! Sorry about the wind noise, I was trying to get a decent sound in this video of the trees groaning. They are covered in ice/snow. Doesn't take much to get them complaining LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino16 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Getting a brief snow tv for a few minutes here. No accumulation, but I did wake up to the sound of thunder this morning, which was cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 28 out. Snow has slowed. Roads never gave in, in my neighborhood. Around 4.5” of very wet heavy snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 12pm 28° wind blown snow now, maybe there are pixie flakes falling still, hard to tell. Measured 3”. Will be interesting to see what that developing band does west 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 got a nice walk around dt frederick. roads were primarily wet (sun angle season really is no joke), but looks like over 2" in some of the better accumulating spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Most sheltered places around 7” if you subtract some for “grass”. But I can’t find a good paved surface to use. And I scalp my lawn for winter so it doesn’t add too much. One oddity…walked down my hill to my mailbox which is a 1/4 mile away and about 200 feet lower down the ridge. I’ve never seen as significant a difference. Can’t imagine 200 feet made that much difference. Maybe it was wind exposure. Dunno. But you can see for yourself. pics from around my property at the top of the ridge my driveway side/back yard Front 1/4 mile down the road at the bottom of the ridge 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When big gusts shake snow off the (pine) line it looks like a viscous fog ready to eat everything in its path and the deck rail almost disappears!

BlizzardNole Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Trees still have a lot of snow on them despite the winds. Looks very wintery with about 3 inches, and hoping for a squall later. How 'bout this from down south -- Knoxville had seven straight days in the 70s ending Monday, then 50s and 60s with a high of 67 yesterday, and got 5-8 inches!

That last one looks wind blown. I wouldn't think that elevation difference would make much difference in this situation. Your area got the best forcing and also good timing.

You are further east as well, and I wasn't glued to the radar earlier, but it looked like the best forcing/heaviest area of snow passed west of you.

I think this next round will probably give us NW fokes a little more fun. Flakes seem to be increasing already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 7 inches is a great event up there. It's not HRDPS stuff, but it certainly verified the other models, especially since you will likely tack on another inch or two with Round 2.
