Welcome! How's the ice accretion down there?
-
You're catching on quick.
-
Ji melting down contributed to the expansive warm layer.
-
Well this winter was fun. Time to dust off the ole' fishing rods and get ready for bass season.
-
Amazing content on a free site.
-
Yea the 5a - 7am timeframe in New Windsor was amazing. Big fluffy snow that just piled up.
-
Correct METAR code would be IP+

Meso'd: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/2021/md0119.html

It's all about the upper levels with this one. SPC meso analysis show 700mb temps are +1 to +2 so everything is melting. I'll still take this over the 50 and rain the GFS had for us early on Sunday.
-
The sleet is bonding to the road surface more efficiently than snow. The ICC is having similar problems, especially on the bridges.
-
This is some March 2007 level sleet. Wow.
-
FYI, avoid I-270 folks...it's a mess.
-
The roads with a few inches of sleet are definitely worse than any of the other snow events we've had this year. The cold air last night has helped the precipitation bond more efficiently to the road surfaces. Southbound I-270 from the Frederick County line to about the ICC has a lot of wrecks.
-
Yup. If things were like 1 degree colder and just 10 to 20% wetter, we'd of won bigly every time. But compared last year and the year before that, this has been an okay winter.
-
That event was insane. I was in Philly for that and got 4" of solid sleet after the day before was like 50 degrees. Took forever to melt off.
-
Definitely learned my lessons that: 1.) Your location matters for climo (the further north or west you are the better) 2.) Always protect your lower end 3.) The mix line will always win
-
Sounds like typical La Nina in these parts.
-
Yup. Got decent returns all the way back to western West Virginia. Curious to know if we can get a second round of activity later this afternoon.
-
In Gaithersburg at work. When precip lightens up, it's small sleet pellets, but whenever rates pick up it flips right back to snow.
-
Roads this morning are pretty terrible. Even I-270 is snow/ice covered.
-
To our west:
-
22/16 New Windsor...ran an EMS call about an hour ago and it's cold as all get out.
-
18z Euro is wetter for everyone east of I-81. Happy to see.
-
Looks like LWX is upping totals for the Mason-Dixon zones. Now saying 6-10 for NW Baltimore, Carroll, Washington, and Frederick County in the updated ZFP.
