I feel for all those tech migrants from California.

Nothing in STL.
-
Perfectly situated band over downtown STL. ~28-30dbz. I don't have a way to really gauge the accumulation here but its accumulating quickly. Perhaps nearing 0.8 or so inches? Lovely outside. Temp is 17
-
Very light flurries in downtown STL @ a balmy 23. Most of the precip has been to the north and south of me
-
Downtown STL is around .6ish I think. Not too much but made for a nice walk.

Record setting cold run on the 18z gfs

Jan 31st - 33rd Storm Obs and Disco like it's 1979
Dalfy replied to Bob Chill's topic in Mid Atlantic
Yea I'm not going to miss that at all, haha. It was like a never ending set of really convincing mirages. Not to mention all the lost sleep and work productivity, checking models every 6 hours. God, it was torture but so addicting. Oh yes, that's something I'm looking forward to experience. Really hoping we can squeeze one event like that before winter ends. -

Wish I could be there for this.. I've temporarily relocated to MO, aka no more noreasters for me . Anyway, here's an update from the wunderground station near my old house in Olney: light snow, 27. -
35/31 very light snow
-
Literally puking buckets, the house directly in front of mine [maybe 100-200 feet] is difficult to see. Temp is 26
-
Measured a little over 11'' in Olney. We really hit the jackpot here with this one, and I for one am thoroughly satisfied! I'm hoping this is a good indicator for things to come with the pattern shift on the 20th. I am a bit winded from the obs and storm-tracking -- I forgot how much energy and attention storm monitoring involves.
-
Can definitely confirm that. Went on a 30 min walk and it's just pouring snow, my hair stood no match.. must've had like a half inch accumulate on it by the time I got back home. I measured something like 8.5 inches on the grass near a local road so I think we had somewhere between 9 or 9.5'' so far correcting for compaction.

It's just off Outerbanks. https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/new/viewsector.php?sector=19#

It's really coming down hard
-
It started intensifying here [Olney] just as I finished shoveling, lol. Oh well, it'll be easier the second time round
-
Jebman, sorry for butting in. You and your posts literally symbolize the epitome of the enthusiasm that drives half the board to be weather enthusiasts. I honestly don't think this forum [and the predecessor] would be the same without your posts. Don't trivialize them!
-
It's like communion during mass, it's a deep-rooted tradition -named after Jebman- of walking through a snowstorm for the sole reason of admiring the scenery. Now that you know, you should go take one and snap some photos
-
Very much an uncanny resemblance [first is current radar; second is feb 2010]. The precip shield on the east side is oriented differently and not as intense but the same general shape and breadth. Pretty cool if you ask me
-
Roads are covered in rockville and probably a little over half inch on non-asphalt surfaces. I'm really impressed with how fast the snow came in, not much Virga despite the low dew points earlier today
-
500mb low at present. Looks nice!:
-
Spending the day near Rockville and it's been lightly snowing here for the last hour or so. I'm incredibly excited for this storm! Here's to a pleasant surprise for everyone
-
I remember going outside the garage, and the snow being up to my thighs.. when the garage door opened the snow blew into the house, and I had to clean that up, then I took a picture of my dad's car which was burried totally in the snow. It was quite the sight
-
ya didnt feel it here either, but I checked and there was one at 8:04 pm..
-
What do you think the chance is of an aftershock? how rare is it?
-
Wow I didn't know it could affect so many areas so far Connecticut all the way down to GA felt it from reports on the other regional threads.
