Dr No Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Forgive my lack of snow measuring etiquite... I measured and cleared the snowboard after only 3 hours as I'm tired and going to bed. 2" on the nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 looking at radar and sat pic Ian put up, I'm not so sure CHO will necessarily be the jackpot now looks more NE of there, but I could be completely wrong jackpot could be pretty close to us.. maybe high elevations of loudoun etc?

I-83 BLIZZARD Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 This is amazing. I am increasingly convinced there will be solid 1-2 foot totals from the Mason dixon line to DC and beyond. I also believe a blizzard warning will verify in our region. Congrats to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Thanks for that Ian. In other words. If you have precip over you right now. You are going to get blitzed. And I agree this is going to rival Feb 2010 for some of us. in retrospect this maybe should have been so much easier for us to buy into. i mean, i think i've been pretty gung ho on it for the last 5 days or so but if it wasn't march we would have been in a similar mode to then i think the last few. well, the snow drought hurt as well. still think the initial calls of 10+ in DC were a bit extreme given climo but this is generally how our giant snow events happen.

Ian Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 once I heard 2/10/10 was a #1 analog, I felt we had a great shot so long as temps cooperated that and 2/6 were showing up almost every run on CIPS. it's like a 2/10 turning into a 2/5-6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Front Royal I kinda agree. Those 3 or 4 degrees are going to make a big difference. But lets not worry about bulls eyes right now.

wawarriors4 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 EZF guys... how heavy is that band coming through now on radar? .5" per hour rates? Its easily .5 miles visibility or lower so somewhere between .5 and 1" per hour rates, it's pretty sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhb Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Those RAP runs are pornographic for the DC area, that monster CCB just sits there for at least 12 straight hours (and it's not done at the end of the 05z run)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
