Heisy Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 in town or have you made it out to the higher spots? I'm at the same Holiday inn that the TWC crew is at. Walked by Al Roker earlier. TWC is broadcasting from where I am. There is a "death band" to my east. Hoping it rotates west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Train Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Continuing to snow heavily at my work in Leesburg (downtown) and home south of Leesburg. Had probably 4-5 inches on ground at home and piling up quickly, not quite as much at work location. Roads were drivable but it's definitely starting to get slushy and thick.

Rhode Islander in Balto Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Seems to be more wet flakes than large rain drops now in Parkville, still pretty mangled looking though. Temp steady at 35.8 according to the weather station IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gymengineer Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 50/50? could do it at the end. radar doesn't look that good for the city right now. we need a few hours of pummeling or lower temps.. neither seem imminent. Basically at this point, we need overperforming/hanging on longer than forecast at the end.... something like 2/24-25/05 or 2/28/05. We're pretty much done with accumulations for awhile even as it continues to snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a "death band" to my east. Hoping it rotates west. Don't know what you're driving, but if you head out rt 55 east of town you can intercept that band. you gain about 300' elevation on the road surface alone. always a colder spot in that part of the county. or you can head out 522S (where i told you yesterday) and gain 1300'+ in road elevation. should encounter heavier precip rates and will encounter a lot more accumulated snow.

snowdude Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I had to leave Columbia, it was ridiculous and I was not going to miss the last storm of the season. I drove home to Dale City. lol. Some dangerous driving conditions in northern VA with the heavy bands. I'd say a little over 3 inches may have fallen here but it's melting too.

J.Mike Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Still 33 where I live. The snow is falling, but the accumulation is nill. It's almost 11 AM. This is an I-81 storm. Let's face it - the bust potential for DC/Baltimore proper is very real. I'm glad to be working from home, but fingers are going to be pointing at OPM's decision to close the FED with wet streets and Metro running smoothly, and they in turn are gonna point at the NWS.

mitchnick Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 this is what happened to Boston the 2/10/10 storm where places S and SW got tons and they received little or nothing something with the 5h was bad, but I can't recall the details since it didn't matter for our area I'm losing faith for BWI as nothing out to my immediate west looks to be changing and we're wasting qpf something has to happen real, real soon it seems to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huffwx Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Reports of 3.5 now in LYH-- 15+ in Harrisonburg. Much more on grass and cars then sidewalk. Sidewalk was plowed at 7 and has 3 inches with a nice slush bottom. Going to head down 81 around 2 pm. Still heavy snow here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Is there a destination out there that you know of? Like a Walmart parking lot or something? Because I will go for sure. if you go out 55 E you'll come to the I-66 exit (Linden). There are multiple gas stations / stores there. I recommend stopping at the Apple House and getting a BBQ sandwich and their famous apple donuts (they are to die for). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
33andrain Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 about a 50/50 mix here now, and the temp as slipped back a bit to 35.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 This thing isn't in any hurry to move out. That could be the saving grace for areas hoping to see at least a few inches. As we get closer towards mid afternoon and the low gets further east maybe we get cooler temps and actual stickage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
