H2O Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I guess you are the closest to DCA.. could we have a steak beaker... what is the official word from the airport? 1.2"? Actually i have no idea but it will be half of what the immediate area will end up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 havent gotten word yet....it will be close...depends how they measure....it is melting when rates let up...when I checked I had 2.5" on cartops, 3" on grass and 2.25" on picnic table... That's what i used to get my 2.25". car top and trash can lid. Was sticking to everything and looked very nice out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Measured 3.25 inches here just north of Taneytown....awesome surprise. I can't believe the schools shut down for a few inches of slush...we have about 3" here too in Westminster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Oh, my call of 2-4 out here and 1-2 down there was a bust. Low!!!!! And, as I called yesterday, so was LWX's. Call it like it is, that was a horrible forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTRWx Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I measured between 2.5 and 3.5 inches in the yard with an inch on roads in south Alexandria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDIII Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 At 5:30 I had a solid 2.5 and I am inside the Baltimore beltway... woke up at 3:00 to take my puppy out and there was a little bit of whie on my car. So 2.5 inches in two hours. An inch an hour and it looks like it could go for another three hours. I would love to see warning criteria. That would constitute a reverse bust.

WinterWxLuvr Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Looking at the current radar, I think Balt ends up the big winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDIII Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I can't believe the schools shut down for a few inches of slush...we have about 3" here too in Westminster. It is all perception.. in a blockbuster year like 09-10, I remember clipper coming through that dropped like 4 inches and Carrol County stayed open.

I-83 BLIZZARD Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I can't believe the schools shut down for a few inches of slush...we have about 3" here too in Westminster. In this region light rain causes tons of accidents and snarls traffic. Put slush and snow on the road with heavy snow falling, then throw school buses in the mix it creates an unmitigated disaster.

SconnieTransplant Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Looking at the current radar, I think Balt ends up the big winner. I live in downtown Baltimore and there's about an inch on the ground so far - very fat wet flakes. Liberal leave from my government academic contractor job.
