Ian Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I have 2.0" on cold surfaces, an inch on the warm ground...0.17" water equivalent. The snow fall was wet with the temperature hovering between 31 and 32 all night. The front passed throuigh at 6AM with gusty winds and a brief squally snow. Temperature is falling quickly, down to 24 now with just a few flakes falling. I wouldn't hang your hat on the squall line. It was just a quick swirling of snow and wind, not much accumulation with it. it's supposed to pick up east of the mtns.. tho the hrrr is pretty crappy for all the attention it gets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnis Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 almost every report around the closer in area is about 1/4"-1".. there could of course be some higher. His pic does not look like 2". I live in Damascus so I'm not too far from where the pic was taken I'm guessing. I'm definitely around 1.5". There are a few hill tops closer to Mt Airy that sometimes squeeze out a bit more than my street, but I agree, the pic doesn't quite look like 2".

CheesyPoofs Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Nice picture man. No grass visible? I think it was you who said all you wanted was an event where you can't see the grass afterwards...looks like you got it. I'm home for the weekend -- Hopefully the "squail" doesn't fail.

CranberryWX Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 it's supposed to pick up east of the mtns.. tho the hrrr is pretty crappy for all the attention it gets Yeah...It's time for me to start tracking the upslope snow streamers... Might get an inch from that considering it's during the daytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterymix Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 9z HRRR for the convective squall this afternoon, should be fun, not sure how many are aware but DC has a lightning mapping array, which will be interesting to watch to see if we do get any lightning with the squall passage, Chris87: Thanky for your contributions; nothing better than a meterologist/snow weenie blend.

MN Transplant Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 0.2" with an overnight low of 33.3. Grass is partially coated, with nothing under trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris87 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Chris87: Thanky for your contributions; nothing better than a meterologist/snow weenie blend. I need something to beat my trace from last night/this morning. I grew up in lake effect country so squalls and I go way back! Here's a nice image from Jan 26 of last year from the DC LMA (Note: these are not strikes but sources, which are then reconstructed to into a 3-d representation of each lightning strike): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 1.5 inches measured here. Very pretty. This one started as snow, never did rain, stuck almost immediately. Here's the old faithful 2x4 measuring pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, it's the biggest event of the season here , and certainly more than I expected The snow just stopped recently, but it was pretty light when I woke up. Can't wait till the squail!

nw baltimore wx Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Maybe 1/2 inch here. It looks like about the same amount as when I went to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Went to bed at 3am with a mix, got up at 7 to nothing, so I didn't really see any true snow. Just wet ground here. 33. The prospects of a squall or 2 are nice, but they are usually scattered so many will get screwed. Thunder and lightning and a flash freeze possibility...finally a winter day around here. Light activity from CHO to Orange seems to be breaking up or weakening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grothar of Herndon Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Fozz looks like the winner in for this storm. Nice pictures! 33/30 Ground coverage and slight tree stickage. 0.25" of snow. Best of the last three storms. At least ground is white this morning. Can feel the cold and it feels good. Hoping the squall brings a little more snow.

mappy Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 WOW, nice scene outside, the snow is covering the trees and everything except the roads. Looks like we got at least an inch, but I haven't measured. But it's really picturesque. Better than the last two events IMO Very pretty over here too! Snow already stopped when i woke up (about 30 minutes ago). Was snowing nicely around midnight. Not sure how much I have here. Long Green on the other side of the Reservoir got 1 inch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
