WVclimo Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Went out in the yard with the kids. Still snowing moderately, but the snow falling now is a much different composition than earlier. No more of the fat flakes of this morning. Ratios will be interesting to measure when its done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 drove from Linthicum Heights to my in-laws in Bel Air some wild changes along the way it was snowing nicely when we arrived in Bel Air, but has changed back to a mix before anyone gives up, you ought to take a look at the current and the past runs of the RUC much colder than last night and earlier today and the runs clearly suggests a broad deform band developing and holding on after temps crash, really it confirm the NAM and to a lesser extent, 12Z GFS is it right? will it be cold enough for snow to accumulate? don't know but like I said, supports the NAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I took a short ride up 27 to Damascus and there is a good inch-and-a-quarter on the ground there, and the streets had slush on them. The snow had stopped by the time I got there though. We have just a slush coating in Germantown, and it's only 7-8 miles away. The 300 feet made a big difference!

WxUSAF Posted October 29, 2011 Author Share Posted October 29, 2011 http://weather.uwyo.edu/cgi-bin/sounding?region=naconf&TYPE=TEXT%3ALIST&YEAR=2011&MONTH=10&FROM=2912&TO=2912&STNM=72403 12z IAD sounding. I think the NAM definitely had it right yesterday more than the GFS. Column was subfreezing down to ~950mb. Low level temps are killing those of us getting rain as much the upper levels. SPC meso analysis has the 850 0C line near IAD now and then NEward along the fall line. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/sfctest/new/viewsector.php?sector=17# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpollak92 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Just checking in from sunny southern california where I'm at my first year of college.

Ian Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I think we see lt snow...we could still see a superband, though I don't think it will happen over me and you......there is still a fair amount of 500mb energy to our west and southwest...it would help if the sfc low would bomb, but I don't think that will happen in time...though we should see some sort of radar pivot...We are cutting it close here, but there is no reason someone like Phineas should be pessimistic unless he was hoping to get pounded...I wouldn't be surprised if he got an inch or 2 later the far sw edge is starting to get a bit close but. could sorta see it pivot on like a PW/fairfax county line if you stretch it out from both ends. but it could also sorta just fizzle with the stuff up north of it becoming more dominant i guess.

WVclimo Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Just heard two large tree branches snap in about a 2 minute period. The loud cracks were wild to hear from across the yard, like low volume gun shots. 3" otg with the heaviest snow of the day falling now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
