ifindppl Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I am at 5 inches and snowing heavily. Winds whipping the powdery stuff around. No sign of sleet, yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbansnowlover Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Streetfight is the right word for it. Culpeper is back to primarily snow/sleet mix under the heavier returns. Accumulation up .25 inch since first light with what seems to be accumulating sneet. Very light ice glaze formed on the usual surfaces during the lull but no further accretion, and back to loud pings now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Still hanging on in Downtown DC. Can hear louder flakes but it’s at least 80/20 snow. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terpeast Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 That’s it for me. 5.5” of snow accumulation officially. Now all sleet, but a cold accumulating sleet 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Measured 4” on the dot in multiple spots. There is a bit of breeze, so officially a little higher, but my 4-6”+, anti-wimpy snow threshold has been met. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TowsonWeather Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 23 minutes ago, Eskimo Joe said: That 2.0 just north of Baltimore is wrong - at least not close to current. That dot is basically my house and we had 3+ OTG an hour and a half ago. Haven't measured since but it's piling up. Has to be at least 5" and pouring snow. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillvilleWx Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Just now, DDweatherman said: @MillvilleWx some aren’t getting great ratios, but I’d estimate in excess of 15:1 up our way so far. It accumulated extremely efficiently when it wasn’t heavy, now in SN+ it’s basically a fog. Yeah. There is a sharp gradient with the ratios with a steep climb in better ratios for north of I-70. Easily were pushing 18-20:1 in the initial part of the storm. They have come down even here recently, but it’s still probably a solid 12-15:1 for WV Panhandle across the northern tier. HRRR actually did a masterful job at showing this part on last nights runs. Very consistent. Impressed, but still have to see how the morning plays out. Fingers crossed for both of us and the northern tier that we can hang on till 11am-1pm before it definitely flips. Feel like Leonidas in Sparta saying, “HOLD” when looking at the radar lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 It won't be long. Vis rapidly increased here and I'm mostly sleet.Willing to consider I don’t know what sleet looks like. Things are still flying in the air like snow but hearing more pings. Vis still noticeably fuzzier… maybe 50/50 atm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErinInTheSky Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 It’s weird. I wouldn’t call what we have sleet here in Gaithersburg right now. It’s regular big flakes and then some rimed snow that’s very much accumulating. we are under CCs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
