The Dude Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Ended up with about an inch of snow here before it switched to sleet and rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scraff Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Going back to more snow in Dundalk, the brighter bands are breaking down and snow coming back even to where wxmeddler is. Interesting, and the secondary seems to be developing down in SC as we speak. Was it originally modeled that way? Could we have more surprises in store?

mitchnick Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 more snow mixing in, now about 50/50 I was sleet w/a little rain pressure falls are highest in SE VA which must explain the cold holding on so strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 It wants to switch back it really wants too I can't remember an event like this 99% of the time, once it goes to sleet or zr, that's it but this one keeps on trying probably combo of 50/50 Low holding stronger causing a wee bit earlier transfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disc Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Switching to all frozen precip now. A sleet and snow mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 JI/Dave, how much did you guys get? just shy of two inches. Before the sleet kicked in 1.8" of snow here Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 just shy of two inches. Before the sleet kicked in 1.8" of snow here Scott. Wow great. Hoping for that here, but east wind disaster will be around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Going back to more snow in Dundalk, the brighter bands are breaking down and snow coming back even to where wxmeddler is. Interesting, and the secondary seems to be developing down in SC as we speak. Just a shade under 2" here now. Still all snow here and the weenie radar shows the cold air trying to work back down the Apps. I'm beginning to wonder if it's possible for just northwest of here to stay all snow for this. A change-over to something else besides snow is inevitable here, but this is great so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will definitely last longer frozen, the cold air is really trying. This very cold ne wind is definitely helping. Sleeting now, but could go back to snow soon.

EastCoast NPZ Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Back to all snow here and snowing quite heavily now. At least 3" on the ground. Incredible. Two over-performers in the last 3 days. Just beautiful outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deck Pic Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Did DCA get any accum? I dont know yet...I'm guessing 0.2?...but you never know with DCA.....at 9:30...Mt Vernon spotter had 0.3" and that is 10+miles south right on the river...Oxon Hill in PG county across the bridge had 0.2.....I had ~0.3/0.4 and it was sleeting steadily and accumulating when I left home at 9:30...but DCA is a travesty....you certainly got at least 0.5" in CLE Park...NE DC spotter reported 0.5" at 10:30..I might revise to 0.25" depending on other readings close by and DCA...DCA never got below 33-34 and I was 32 so not sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 A quick comparison shot to show what the sleet and freezing rain has done to my precious snow: Wow great. Hoping for that here, but east wind disaster will be around. Off topic, but I just noticed you're in Dorchester....my wife's grandparents live in Dorchester, so I make it up that way a couple times a year usually.

das Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 S of 11am, additional 1.2" of snow before the latest changeover on top of the 0.2" from the first batch. Headed to a cabin north of Oakland, MD and am in SN+ in Frederick. Anyone in Clarksburg, I'd appreciate a snow total when this is all over since I won't be there. My last ob was 1.4" at 11am so anything beyond that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmeddler Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Noon and still snowing well in many spots. Bust? Half bust, Annapolis and DC did end up seeing snow and the .15 to.3 QPF did work out. The timings were a compromise of the GFS and RAP/HRRR. The cold air at 800mb held on a bit longer and we're overperforming. The RAP was actually pretty decent in this event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
