mappy Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I'm really confident in whats to our southeast. I think within the hour down to the inner harbor rips sn+ and the entire area. yeah, i see the heavier bands near Glen Burnie and then the one stretching out to Dover. The pivot will bring those our way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 If you want to see which way we're headed as far as precip, take a look at this radar loop; especially the end. Tons of moisture are starting to be pulled into this storm. Kudos to whomever above posted the link to this radar site. Awesome! http://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/send.php?type=DOX-N0Q-1-200 Wow! That's awesome. Beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speed6 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Just drove in from Edgewater, MD to NW DC. Rain/Snow cut off was quite severe near the Bay. My place is about 4 blocks from the water: all rain. Just ~3 miles inland: snow and a light coating already on the grass. Was all white stuff for the rest of the drive. Starting to stick to the sidewalks in NW in just the past 15-20 minutes. I'm at 13th and F and we've got a thin slushy layer building on the walkways.

Benchmark Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 My temp by the bay 30 miles east of DC dropped to 37.9 but has crept back to 38.1 in the last 15 mins which is concerning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouchot Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Big lull right now, and no new accumulation since 5ish. About 2.5 inches here so far, and the little snow that sticked to the roads is gone. Looking forward to the real snow storm getting underway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Been pouring snow near U Street in DC for about 30 minutes now. But its still going to have either pick up in intensity or get a bit colder if snowfall forecasts for the city are to be met. Everything now white, but still far more melting than sticking seems to be going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaltimoreWxGuy Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Dude stop. You aren't getting a foot but were never supposed to. BL temps will crash this afternoon everywhere. Maybe but being right on the Bay is a different beast. Your on the Potomac, but at least your ~30-40 miles from the bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 The new map seems a little high, it would have to snow quite heavily to get 8-10" in those areas of Baltimore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Symblized Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I'm really confident in whats to our southeast. I think within the hour down to the inner harbor rips sn+ and the entire area.

Things looking up for a bit here Lwx just updated and largely maintained totals away from the bay on their snow map! Perhaps, but ain't no way I'm seeing 6-8 inches of snow in Federal Hill, which is what LWX's snow map appears to have for me. Fingers crossed that these heavier bands rotating up the bay will put me in SN+. I'll believe it when I see it. No snow here since about 4:00 a.m., even in the heaviest of precip.
