Amped Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Winding down. Light snow with small flakes. I'd say about 1" Sorry DCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 For some reason it took me awhile to change over... just a few miles NE of me had changed over a good 1/2 hour before me under the moderate precip. There's been some good returns on the radar up that way... wouldn't be surprised to see reports of around an inch. Yup, just crested an inch. JNIS (reliable obs) 6mi to the east in Damascus was at 1.1" 15 minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodhi Cove Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 *Gasp* I believe Middle River has finally achieved what I can only refer to as "snain." It sure isn't snow, but it's not quite rain either. lol At least I no longer feel like the ugly, red headed stepchild at a family reunion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUweathermanDD Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 im really discouraged in eastern Baltimore, nice radar today and good qpf but mainly rain the whole day. in a day where temps are 30 some places wouldve gotten 2-3'' today, and i wouldve gotten at least a solid period of snow.

jnis Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I opened the french doors in the bedroom to get a good look at the snow a few minutes ago, and had a spider hanging from a small web off of the gutter. You don't see that with big snow flakes coming down behind the spider very often either. Thank God there are no stink bugs flying around the light...that would have ruined it for me.

swimmatte Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Pretty amazing how fine of a line we had on this one. Had a nice coating on everything and the grass was mostly covered at my house in Montgomery Village but when I drove to 355 and 370 in Gaithersburg the accumulation cut in half or worse. I drove a few more miles south and there was nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I haven't looked at anything in 2-3 days, so you'd know better than I. LOL. I seriously doubt that. There is some precip breaking out in the Cincy/Dayton area. I guess it's not beyond possible that it slides east or that another area develops. The HRRR model does show this happening.

I have about an inch, and that cam showed very little snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Note for the file...getting moderate snow with temps above freezing sucks because it hardly accumulates. That and the early February sun angle was a killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 it was so lol when the nam had it lasting like 30 yesterday That's what I saw but it also had only light stuff last night. I'm finally back home. I drove through 8 hours of snow from just east of Toledo to around Columbia Maryland. However, the temp was generally 33 degrees except near the Laurel highland on the PA turnpike where there was around 2 inches on the grass. Once the NAm went with the sheared look, the storm was pretty much dead for the dc proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you tend to like it in the short range but I'm not always sure why other than you are an HPC guy. Perhaps we get another area of precip later this evening but the Euro destroyed it on this event just like it did on 10/29 and 1/22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
