2/6-7: Clipper Pack Refresher

[T. August]

No accumulation here - 17.8° in Havre de Grace.

[CAPE]

Nada here. Just cold and windy. Per radar looked like Dover area got hit pretty good, as @JakkelWx described.

[Miss Pixee]

18 / DP 0

Extreme cold wind warning. Can hear the gusts blasting around at times.

[katabatic]

Based on several highly unscientific measurements/observations, I'm going to call it at 7". That could be wildly inaccurate but it's impossible to measure. Temps have leveled off around 2 with winds in the 25 mph range. The squall intercept last night with @MillvilleWx at Keysers Ridge was just frickin' epic and as I told @NorthArlington101 it was truly a high-end Great Lakes-esque experience. The difference is it lasted 20 minutes here and the Great Lakes would've lasted for 2 days lol. I'm still trying to organize some victims, er volunteers, for tubing tonight at Canaan. Any takers?

Deep winter up st DCL.   I hope this doesn't get me kicked off the forums but I'm sick of this winter.  I'm so over the cold dry wind.  I'm doing my annual preseason reading of all my moth books and it has me looking forward to April.

It’s crazy how DC will have an above freezing high temp for today

[87storms]

Woke up at 4am and didn’t notice anything, so went back to bed lol. Wind has marched in, though, and it is chilly out.

[winter_warlock]

No precip here in Sparrows point MD but my anemometer recorded a 41 mph wind gust!!!! And I'm at 19.5 F !!  Wind chills here -2!!

The most snowfall ever recorded in a single winter in Maryland was during the winter of 2009–10, when 262.5 inches of snow fell at Keysers Ridge.

@stormtrackerban this imposter. We do not stand for this nonsense. While you’re at it, take out gray beard from Delaware, too.

Anybody know if BWI reported any measurable snow? I saw DCA had 0.1” and IAD 0.3”.

I have not seen anything but it snowed and accumulated twice at my place south of them. 

[MN Transplant]

DCA to 54mph.  My backyard is littered with sticks.

[WVclimo]

MRB gusted to 59.  HGR at 51.

[snowfan]

Nice day in the WV high country

Im already going to be at the Sled Run, else I'd join you.

[EastCoast NPZ]

No evidence that anything fell overnight.  Just another sunny, windy day here.

Weak sauce

[peribonca]

Surprised to see the car covered again by a dusting overnight in Colonial Beach. Total for yesterday/today 0.8 inches... It's actually drifting and looks like Labrador

Was hoping for a few 60mph+, wonder if we can get some better mixing during the solar maximum.

43mph on my anemometer through the trees ties my top gust since 2021 (localized microburst).  We probably won't see the near 60mph number that the NWS was saying was possible, but this is an impressive event.

Weak sauce here as well, no snow showers last night or squalls, no extreme wind gusts so far, maybe a gust to 38 to 44 mph. 

All in all a typical deep winter day.  The most impressive thing is the snow cover that remains, starting the third week of snow cover tomorrow, have not seen the grass in a couple weeks.

That and gumballs here. Snow/ice pack is getting dirtier.

[CAPE]

20 when I woke up, now 17. That wind is biting.

[wxmeddler]

I didn’t think 60 was ever really in the cards for this event. The boundary layer really only has ~45 kts. I want to see 60kts in order to get 60mph.

[Terpeast]

Max wind gust 41, lowest wind chill -1

It’s not just the numbers, it’s also the duration of this event that makes it stand out.

Just took out the trash, and the wind really cuts through your bones. And I’m in a relatively protected area. 

[WEATHER53]

At 10:45 am 14F. Which is up one degree since 7am .  NW wind 25 gusting to 40 and had a 53moh gust overnight 

[wxdude64]

Had a 46 mph gust at 2:20 am here. About an inch of snow, though that is an average as last night's wind whipped stuff was a struggle to measure. Absolute crazy 15 minutes last night around 1:30 am. Snow and wind brought vis down to a couple hundred feet at most a couple of times. Easily would have been 2-3 inches if it had continued for an hour. At 7 am CoCoRaHS report I had spots that had been cleared still clear and spots in corners/edges with 6" of new snow. Currently 17.4/1.1 at 10:50 am with NNW wind at 10 gusting to 26 mph, WC 5 to -1.
