clueless Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 It's a complicated storm with a lot to discuss. Not some moisture starved clipper that's simple. The page count is more a factor of trying to solve a pretty tough and cool riddle. We all know we suck at snow but we have fun with it anyway. At least my sick and demented azz does. We have to fight for every flake around here. It is a complicated storm. Unfortunately it never got to a 4-6er for us. I hope someone has a nice surprise.

Bob Chill Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 And the reports of rain at DC with snow everywhere else... I'm looking forward to prolific cries of doom from a bunch of folks I've never seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 The radar hallucinations and dryslot suicides are still going to be brutal tomorrow. NAM sim radar shows the snow coming in from W-->E, so maybe that will help instead of waiting it to fill in overhead. Somehow the radar stuff started this morning. I'm still lost with that one.

And the guy from NE PA who is really sad we missed out again but decided he should show us what 15" of snow looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinylfreak89 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Somehow the radar stuff started this morning. I'm still lost with that one. you can thank me for that... though I was using it to illustrate a point... right now btw it seems like we are somewhere in the middlground, leading closer to what models have said... though I won't deny the pcpn over TN is interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 NE Marylanders: Wow it is ripping up here! So sorry DCA is getting nothing again? Wanna see the 2" that have came down in literally the past 30 minutes? Me: I know you mean well, but you are making my lack of snow more disappointing. NE Marylander: Rippin! Maybe this super band will move South and slam you guys. Best snow ever! *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clueless Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 ORX said in NE that he doubted most inland would get more that 5-7 up there. Naturally coast will be plastered. Couldn't help but check those guys out. They are all high-fiving each other. Disgusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymengineer Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 We in the DC area have forgotten what a cold 2" snow looks like, even on the streets. I was in downtown Lancaster for 3 nights from 12/23-12/26 on vacation. The last morning, 12/26, was that "surprise" band that sagged into MD. But up in Lancaster, this 2.5" unexpected snow coated every road surface since no crews had been out. It just takes a cold storm to do this, even with not that much precip: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 My Dad and brother (in South Jersey) will undoubtedly send me pictures of their fluffy 4-6" of powder, while my younger sister up along the central Jersey Shore will quietly revel in whatever she gets. My older sister will probably gloat and talk about how my nephews are having a great time sledding. And I'll just have to take it like a man. Good thing my expectations have been nil from the get go. Painful, but very bearable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I expect rain followed by a car top coating of snow. Plenty of time to get nickeled and dimed to 6 inches on the season by the end of winter. It's only Jan 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
