TUweathermanDD Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 about 4.5-5'' here around the Dundalk/Essex region, varied measurements because of the wind last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Barely an inch here in Corfton... when I went to bed the sleet had changed to snow and we had 4 more hours of precip... I dont know what happened its exactly why, wanting to stay in Anne Arundel County, I chose Linthicum because it does best in these events 3" here and you're only 20 minutes from me at most I recall the event a week before the 93' March Superstorm; my friend came up from Annapolis where he had a half inch of cr@p and I had 4" imby this event was pretty similar, though a little less snow this time for me qpf wasn't the problem at BWI either as they measured .57" I believe, it was that warm layer above 850 all the models showed that killed us heck, at my office in Glen Burnie, there's probably only 2" and it takes me <10 minutes to drive here from mby otoh, even if we all received 4-6", it would all be gone come Saturday so who cares at this point, its just stats now although not the worst winter of my life as to snowfall amounts, it is probably the worst with respect to time spent chasing snow storms vs. resulting snowfall....too many chances missed but not that much fell seasonal trend was our friend last year and our nemesis this year like I said earlier, bring back the 70s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Mike Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I think they were linked. The warm layer lasted longer partly because the stronger uvv and heavier precip stayed north. You shift it south and the layer cools some and the melting of the precip falling through the layer does the rest but we ended up almost dry slotting and instead of getting .23 or so after 06Z probalby got closer to .10". The GFS was total bust as was the 12Z NAM. The 18Z was much better. BY 10:30 I wrote Jason and e-mail. It was pretty obvious we were going to bust. That's the second bad call by me this year. Thanks so much. Pages of weenie tantums, deleted posts, personal attacks and other such nonsense, and all I wanted was an analysis of what happened to explain the busted forecasts.

smokeybandit Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Did anyone else near BWI hear thunder last night at around 3 AM? No, though that could have been why the dog we're dogsitting was barking (and why I never fell back asleep after that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravensrule Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 5.2" here in Greenspring Valley. That puts my seasonal total at 24.9" which is above my average annual snowfall. Pretty good for a La Nina winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 So... Was DT right? No...although DC and northern VA did get screwed and you could say he was right there, Washington County through Harford County MD had a general 4-7" snowfall. That's a solid SECS for our part of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 DCA got .4". I shouldnt have changed my first guess of .3" Ouch...so is DCA still under 10" on the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 is that really a secs up there? i hate those terms the longer they are used. every storm is a secs+ somewhere. Fair enough on the semantics. I think that's a notable storm there, yes. Not sure what Washington County's climo is (~35"?) but from Frederick County to Harford County covers a range of 22-35" or so with the lowest in southern Baltimore County and the highest up near Mt Hoffman and Mt Vortmax. So I'd say 4-7" is a good sized storm. yep.. should be 9.9" LOL...that sucks. I didn't break 20" either (19.7") if it makes you feel better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
