BlizzardNole Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 OT for a sec - did someone say Kettering? I was there until 1978 and saw the tornado that blasted thru in Sept 1971. It was one of the things that got me into weather. A carport a few doors down was destroyed. Germantown winding down now...looks like 1/2 to 2/3". At one point it looked so good with mod/hvy snow with small, wind-whipped flakes. Onto Saturday night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vastateofmind Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 31 degrees, winds picking up, moderate snow right now as last band appears to be swinging through -- was only snowing lightly when I finally peeled myself out of bed at 6 a.m. Probably about .1" to .2" out there on grass only right now.

eurojosh Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 SN and a strong wind - enough to cover the ground (just) and create a blizzard-like feeling. For about 30 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vastateofmind Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Nice. I don't think I've been covered in snow like that since, well, moving to this area over 20 years ago. Perhaps I should get my arse out there during this last band. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1359719332.760063.jpg (Zywts getting coated in snow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Wind picks up markedly on the back side. There is a sweet spot around me right now where it is still snowing pretty decently and Vis is down under 1/8 mi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Lol Neighbors. Bennington Drive. I remember the tornado well. It was during Agnes and there were several houses damaged right in that area. Ground is covered here. Wow, our house was at the corner of Kettering and Bennington Drives. Moved to northern Calvert in 1978 and all my family is still there, but having a job in DC, I relocated to Germantown to, among other things, have better winters LOL. We are done here now -- this shall be known as the Pushbroom Winter...six snows, all 1" or less. Going out now with the trust wide pushbroom to take care of the drive way.

usedtobe Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 We're getting raked. Best looking intensity of the year. I think I have around an inch so far but I haven't been out to measure. I heard Tom Keirin (?) say it wasn't sticking on the roads, looked out and saw that it was. Temp 30.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 coming down pretty darn good here but unlike most of you, I just find this a sad reminder of how bad this winter has been clinging to these forgettable events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
