Ike Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Just measured 1.75" in a few places on the lawn with nothing substantial on any pavement yet. Beautiful outside, with light snow pulsing to moderate every now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Out my back yard a few minutes ago. The snowflake size has gotten smaller now. The neighborhood roads look very passable. Am I correct to guess that conditions will go down in the next few hours. If so I need to convince my husband to just stay home from work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSF Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Woke up to white yards and black streets at about 4 AM here in NE Baltimore, it's since switched over to mostly rain with a few flakes coming down. School's already closed, so I can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsukev Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Judging by the RAP, the inland lowpressure is still transferring energy up until about 8AM, from that point, it's bombs away, and the coastal low, as quickly as 11AM is fully cranked up. i would venture to guess that is when things will start becoming very exciting on this forum... The RAP also shows the SLP moving what looks like a total of 100 miles in 7 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ji Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 Cwg in full panic telling people that the storm that started 6 hours ago hasn't started yet @capitalweather: Radar quiet around DC, even birds chirping.

Heisy Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 If you looked at 6z NAM it focused the heavier axis a bit farther East than 00z, DC is going to get dumped on just be patient. Just west of the cities though is where I'd want to be though right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NattyBo Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Picking up snow intensity in Rockville, wind too. No mixing now. Not sticking to streets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardNole Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Looks like finally some good precip heading into MontCo from the east; we need southern MD to fill in. I still have 1" on grass, but the coating on streets has melted during this long lull. 33 degrees. If this does not work out the general public is going to pile onto us federal employees. Most of us are teleworking -- I am today -- but the media won't say that. They'll say the feds got a free day off and show wet streets in downtown.

WhiteoutMD Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Yea saw the shift east I think everyone will be in on the fun even bay counties. Can you post the RAP link for me? If you looked at 6z NAM it focused the heavier axis a bit farther East than 00z, DC is going to get dumped on just be patient. Just west of the cities though is where I'd want to be though right now.

MidlothianWX Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Thunder snow again. Easily over an inch now. 15 miles to my east hasn't seen a flake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 That was weird. Don't know why it was upside down I actually thought you did that on purpose lol - bands coming west look really really nice on radar. flakes look much healthier. sentiment seems to be improving on here lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeminoleSullivan Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Just transitioned back to rain (My avatar says SS, but I'm actually near White Marsh, NE Baltimore) Would suspect that I'll transition over again in the next 15-20 minutes with moderate snowfall given the conditions.

WxUSAF Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 These 5-10min interludes of 1mi vis snow aren't cutting it...need it to last for 30+ minutes to get some accumulation going again. Or drop my temps below 33.8F... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
