It's definitely freezing drizzle - spots that I had cleared are SLICK right now on the driveway/walkway. And yes - I really do think that's why my office should do. I'm guessing it's because a few of the secretaries haven't advanced with the technology and are "exempt" from working remotely so to get "everyone" working they just open the office.
My office is opening at 10am...trying to pass up the management chain that there is now some freezing rain. Certainly my dead end street has not been plowed (usually one of the last). MCDOT probably will have to bump back out onto main roads for extra treating if it ices up again. With how our users adapted to remote work over COVID...they really should just say it's a remote work day. Nothing stopping folks from going in...24/7 keyfob access...but with kids home why not just say it's fine for everyone to WFH. Rant done.
Looks like a total (so far) of 4" in Colesville. However, some compaction likely happened after I fell asleep so it's only a rough estimate. Getting some freezing rain it seems now.
Must be Georgetown, DE...or you've found a portal to another parallel universe. Your obs match nobody else in this forum. Get real. If obs on here were QCed yours would be toast.
A county truck came through earlier and salted the heck out of my dead end street. Was pretty we most of the afternoon. Hopefully it has runoff and the road will cave quickly.
High so far today of only 28.2 on my PWS> Despite there not being a ton of snow - it's white outside and these temps make it feel like a true winter day. Refreshing. Hopefully we can get a win tonight!
Somewhere between 26.5 and 29 degrees depending on which sensor I look at here in Colesville, MD. Light pixie dust falling. Love the radar the last handful of frames.
Drove from Colesville area over to Potomac/Rockville during the 6am hour. Not terrible but definitely some snow covered spots - especially where tires aren't hitting from traffic. Side roads are pretty much snow covered except where treated. Very pretty! Just wish I wasn't at work today.
If those are the peak gusts at the end of this - the earlier modest model run gusts (other than the NAM) did exceptionally well. It's interesting that as we closed in today, the models got much more aggressive.
