astarck Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I want our streak to break 1000 days. Who's in? What day are we at right now? How far do we need to go for 1,000? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 GFS soundings Yes, temps were a concern but it didn't go down like it was supposed to either. Big lulls in the precip and best dynamics not in the right places at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhineasC Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 for those who don't have this link. go here http://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/ click lwx and run the 200 loop. you can see the energy vacuum suck the life out of us as things got wrapped up near RIC. Yup. Some are trying to spin this but bottom line was that the mega rates and huge precip totals never materialized. We aren't even going to hit the Euro numbers.

MN Transplant Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 You called this. I was worried, but I didn't think that east of the river would be so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtstack Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 sounds like the cold air core dove south of us and through south central va while the warm nose pushed west north of that cold core. Always weird when ric and dca qpf are the same and richmond verifies with more snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I wonder when NWS is going to wave the white flag, WSW 4-8 seems a bit silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 You blasted me this morning when I said no more snow but I was right. Yes I did, and you were absolutely right about it. I have to admit I was wrong and you were right. But you did say a lot of it out of frustration because you had nothing, but I had almost 2" before most of it got washed away.

Bob Chill Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 well, looks like doxsuperdeathband fizzled to drizzle. Final straw. I'm out. I need to regroup and find a new hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdhokie Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 models overdid the northern extent of precip, and the total amount as well. They did nail the bullseye in western virginia and places west of IAD seem to have done decent. I bet the clown maps from the GFS verify pretty close, probably overdone by a couple inches.

Fozz Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 If there's any upside to this storm, maybe, just maybe, this whole idea of naming snowstorms will be thrown in the trash heap that it belongs in. Or it's just wishful thinking from me........sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Even out past centreville a few miles is a slushy mess. Between heavy rates i feel like its a mix of rain and snow or the wettest snow I've ever seen. Was coming down well in centreville for a time though.
