WxUSAF Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Looks like a bit under 2" of snow (1.7-1.8"?) and I can see a light glaze on top of it. -FZDZ right now. P.S. NAM+GFS >> Euro on this one. Euro QPF already busted before round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BethesdaWX Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Still holding at 29 degrees, glaze on the trees. Now if only the gov't would stop f**king with our QPF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalfy Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Frozen precip to the north. Frozen precip to the south. Nothing overhead. *sigh* its closing in, look at radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CranberryWX Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Cloudy, 31. Precip moved off to the east now. I don't know if it turned to Fr R at the end...0.23" total rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUweathermanDD Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Wonder if the places Baltimore and north could maybe get some snow mixed in with the next piece? Any met with some thoughts, I guess not thanks to a warm layer aloft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Heavier echoes earlier were mostly sleet. Now freezing drizzle and 26 degrees. Nice crust on the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 decent event.. seems fairly low impact around here thus far--partly saturday factor im sure. rd 2 mainly a no show close to dc. maybe entirely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showmethesnow Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Have switched over to 100% moderate snow here after the heavy sleet a little earlier. Temp has bumped up to 25 and am now looking at 3.25 in snow and ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizzardmeiser Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 2.5 inches in cecil county. Another batch heading our way. Not sure if its mixed with sleet. So far so good. Have switched over to 100% moderate snow here after the heavy sleet a little earlier. Temp has bumped up to 25 and am now looking at 3.25 in snow and ice.

Ian Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 i'd be tempted to say this is kinda lame at this pt but that'd be imby'ish i suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethesdaWX Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Temp down to 28.4, still misting, but just under 2" of snow/ice is enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVclimo Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 0.40" storm total liquid through 7 a.m. Calling it 1.5" of snow based on measurements I took at the height of fluffage when it turned to sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozz Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 1.8" of snow before compaction, now sleeting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 only about .3 snow with a hard crust on top. still 29 to 30 deg edit: I didn't measure before it changed over so my snow total is what it is right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 See my post. 1.25 is the number. Nice. You may have slightly more than me but I'll prob go with that over 1.2". I was a bit behind you earlier it seemed too. Not a bad few hours except I hate night events for photos. knowing that you both had just over an inch lets me know that I probably had similar amounts...or i could just go with DCA numbers but we know how those usually turn out.

mappy Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Couldn't sleep anymore, getting ready to head out to walk the dog. Don't think anything is falling at the moment, but I did hear sleet about 30 minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 i'd be tempted to say this is kinda lame at this pt but that'd be imby'ish i suppose. Without the second round, yeah. Did end up with over an inch of snow IMBY, so that's at least something. If that second batch of precip had made it, this would have been interesting, given it is still 29 degrees up this way.

MN Transplant Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 29.5 and level Sidewalks are slick, but there is some traction. Nothing is very frozen. Sticking by my 1.3" overnight measurement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Weatherbug stations around me are between 26.2 and 28.0 degrees. My largely inaccurate and aged digital thermometer agrees (about 28). Nothing falling IMBY right now but driveway is pretty slick. There is some traction but if I slide my feet across it I can slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Good morning all. 28.0 here in SW Frederick Co. Just turned over the scraping of the driveway to my husband. Nasty slushy/frozen mix that actually seems to be letting loose well with the shovel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 i'd be tempted to say this is kinda lame at this pt but that'd be imby'ish i suppose. I'll go ahead and say it was really lame. If I said that I have a half inch of whatever, I'd be pushing the limits of honesty. Even so, its better than looking at brown ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappy Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I'd say at least an inch, but impossible to tell with compaction, nice crust in top. Guess that's it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even so, its better than looking at brown ground. yeah nice to see it snow and still have snow.. at least it didnt wash away before it melts naturally. pretty standard nickle and dime event imby. i guess it's better to have icing underperform anyway.
