das Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I have shaded places that are closer to 3".. The average depth is closer to 2 " here. Makes sense as you are a bit NE of here. I'm at a storm total of 2.3" right now. Maybe the next band to the NW will get me near 3". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avdave Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 You need to redeem yourself after last years suckfest I treated you all well in 09-10. That was about 7 yrs of winters snows for you So the 4 inches of snow in the valley outside Harrisonburg, just about all gone and the sun is out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 When heading northwest from D.C. towards Germantown (on the west side of I-270), the District's "heat island" ends just north of Gaithersburg and just south of Germantown. At night, there's an abrupt and very noticeable temperature drop as one crests a hill in the Seneca Creek area of Clopper Road. There is no recovery in temperature beyond that point. I lived in Germantown (Red Robin Terrace, just off Great Seneca Highway) from '95 to '03 and saw way more snow than those down-county. My best friend, a lifelong resident of the District just recently moved to Germantown; I told him: "welcome to snow country!" It sure didn't take long, ha-ha! Love the play-by-plays here of weather back in my old stomping grounds. Thank you all. You might recognize the view from my pics, then... I live about 1/10 of a mi. away from there on the other side of the tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Looks like one last hurrah band wrapping around. 35dbz around lwx. This was a really fun day! I hope we have more opportunities like this later on. Best case scenario for a Nina. 4 weeks from now this would have been 6-12+ pretty much everywhere except maybe st mary's and the eastern shore.

Colttodd18 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Yesterday when I heard the snow was coming, I had to leave work early to mow my grass.
