Herb@MAWS Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Bittersweet (non)-event for me in Columbia, Md. Whatever happens, I am to spend Mon-Fri at FMY Beach, Florida with expected high temps between 75 and the low 80s.. I guess I don't want to have my Mon morning drive to and flight from BWI to be in uncertain conditions. ....... Or do I !!?? Temp has steadied off Sunday morning at current low for morning of 32.9 degrees. So the ground temps would need a lot of work anyway unless there was to be a period of hvy snow, the probability of which is slim to none ATTM.

eaglesin2011 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I actully think the storm looks pretty good..if u look at the water vapor loop its starting to wrap up ... Prob now is getting rid of the dry air and how fast the temps drop in the Richmond area.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDIII Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I enjoy watching the 24 hour radar loop... It provides the highest quantity of "Weenie hallucination jiuce" on the market. For instance, looking at Eldorado's 24 hour loop from ending at 7:35 AM this morning, it looks to me that a band of snowfall is setting up right over central maryland with the radar filling in nicly to the south of us. http://www.eldoradocountyweather.com/current/usradar.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snownerd Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Looking on traffic land, the snow has made it just north of Roanoke. See the Cloverdale/Daleville cam: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdsnowlover Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I realize this msybe incorrect thing to do, but radar seems to have the echoes moving NE overspreading central md very shortly. The NE movement may indicate a longer period of snowfall than models were indicating. Anyone notice this?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdsnowlover Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 There is no period of snowfall expected anymore much too far north of ric. That was my.point,!!! There is a lot of moisture to my south that does NOT seem to be moving out to sea. Just my observation. Im very inexperienced.oisture seem to be north of modeling. I maybe wrong. However until it starts to snow, it means nothing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathervswife Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 12Z NAM looks so much better for me. My 6 year old son says he already sees flurries outside, but I haven't seen them yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormhunter Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hey guys, I'm new on here. I live just south of Ski Liberty near the PA/MD line. This thing will impact the northerm areas more than what the models have depicted. The warm ground however will kill many for chances for good totals, but maybe a surprising 1-3 inches in areas that was just calling for a dusting.

Huffwx Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 R- in Wise and Roanoke, VA and throughout most of SW virginia You know this, but colder air came in from the N and E-- Not shocked those places started as rain. Model data was pretty clear MAINLY snow for ROA , LYH and CHO. We just need heavier stuff to pull temps to near freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timstobrazil Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 just drove back from Richmond, it was pretty cold down there maybe mid 30s with light winds. Drove through some flurries just south of Fredericksburg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormhunter Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Im going to say just maybe, but keeping a close eye on the returns in the ULL and it seems pretty stong. If we start to see radar returns showing up in extreme sountheastern Ohio than I think we will see some snow. Not much but some. I'm just an experienced observer who has lived here and observed weather my whole life. We will see. Good luck! I now have to spend some time with the family.
