swimmatte Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I was worrying about the lack of regulars in the storm thread so far this morning. Seeing Bob post calms my nerves just slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdhokie Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Yeah I went 100% white rain at DCA as well. It don't snow there no more. People thinking they'll stick a ruler in the ground and measure 8" are gonna have a bad time. 8" of mud maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the heck happened to Ji? Usually he is all over these storms. Or is he busy looking at the 384hr GFS? next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Looking at the storm totals contest and was amazed that everyone had IAD much higher, is IAD being 20 miles west of DCA make that big a difference? Looking at soundings you see a difference too but didn't think to much of it but I guess I should be glad I am in Herndon this week and not the city.

Yes the 20 miles makes a huge difference around here, plus DCA is famous for their horrible measuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I have to say, I'm a lot more pessimistic than I ever was for this storm for my area. It sucks, but we knew we could be in this situation from the beginning. You guys out west though should be pretty stoked. It is so much more fun when Ji has to suffer along with the rest of us.

easternsnowman Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Euro held. Safe to say warnings will fly sometime relatively soon. That's what I thought too....that it held.

That would be a kick in the nuts if they issued a WWA, not that changes what the outcome will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdhokie Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 It makes me sad to think about the poor snow flakes that will be falling and suddenly coming to their wet demise just a couple hundred feet over our heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 this might be the best run since 2009-10. This should outdo the Commutergedden storm I got 14" in that storm I highly doubt this outdoes that storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo2 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I realize the clown maps are just that, but can anyone explain totals in FDK? It has been present on just about every run of the nam for the last 6 cycles. Not complaining, just curious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
