PhineasC Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Lwx just updated and largely maintained totals away from the bay on their snow map! It looks like it increased here for whatever reason. If I still get 8-10 I'll be shocked and happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got Haggis? Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 drove from Mt Vernon Baltimore City to Annapolis this morning. Rain was mixing with snow in Mt Vernon around 7:30am - was all rain down by the stadiums until I got to around Crownsville - snow mixed back in...and now it's all rain where i'm at in Annapolis.

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. Coming at the exact right time to save the day. That will pivot not far from us and dc may continue to be smoked. 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.

Fozz 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. Agreed, especially for the lower elevated areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Same here. Seems that Annandale/Springfield/Burke was in the bullseye for the dry slot. We lucked out in getting accumulation overnight, but it's been pretty boring since about 4:30 or so. That band in MD looks to be rotating in shortly.

dallen7908 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Temperature has jumped up a degree to 35.6. After earlier moderate rain, now light rain. The occasional snow flakes are gone too. Will be interesting to see when the snow begins here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisy Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Radar looking good for immediate DC burbs, NAM shifted east even more, focusing more and more on C VA. I have about 8.5/9" on the ground in Front Royal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
