I-83 BLIZZARD Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 9 inches more or less, moderate snow and death band creeping this way. 14.2 degrees. Going to be some sick ratios with the last bands of heavy precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Been doing reasonably well with radar interpretations today. Think those in downtown DC should see another .75-1.25" The Baltimore area should expect 2-3" additional inches of snow I believe, with the best totals coming on the east and especially north parts of town.

ravensrule Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Do whatever you want Matt, in the end you bring good insight to the table. I don't get offended when someone with less ability to interpret the models/situation calls me out on something. Either they're making an irresponsible statement, or just misinterpreting something. Overall, the north trend call is more about the truth, not being a downer. People need to understand that. Radar is indeed looking a bit better for you btw. + 100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaltimoreWxGuy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 talking about a north trend (which has been validated) is not being a debbie downer...perhaps I need to find a place to post whereI can express concern about a storm or pattern without being attacked... Understood, but saying "you're done" when theres a few more hours of snowfall to fall, and the possibility of OK rates for an hour or so is kind of ridiculous.

Kmlwx Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Understood, but saying "you're done" when theres a few more hours of snowfall to fall, and the possibility of OK rates for an hour or so is kind of ridiculous. This is probably the main point: Talking realistically about north trend does not equal saying with 100% confidence that the band will not come through. This is for the banter thread at this point, though. Picking up here again a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Five inches. Would like to get one more, we shall see. Sent from my iPhone Glad you got what you wanted. You should easily be above 6" where you are located. You finally got a good storm after all this waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Back to solid mod in advance of the band. Awesome. Every surface outside is covered in cold snow. First time since Feb 2010. No sloppy gloppy crap at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Curious of something, when this was looking like a 1-2" deal for DC on the good end, and I said I wanted to make a thread to bring us good luck, did it work?

BaltimoreWxGuy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 That band looks like it could actually do better for DC than Baltimore...dropping pretty good, southeast unless its an overestimate of the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxMan1 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I think everyone gets 1"+ with that band. If DC folks have ~3", that band should push most to 4"+ I'd guess. Then probably done. Just measured 3" here in Crofton. I agree we can end up with 4" when all is said and done. Not a bad system, but certainly not, I repeat NOT the over-performer on 1/02 for this part of AA County. Kudos to the 06Z NAM and 00Z ECMWF and post-06Z RAP trends last night -- they both had DCA right around .40" for the event. I do not know what the 06Z GFS was smoking, especially between 12-18Z (far too wet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Just broke the 3" mark. 3.2 to be exact with this last 20 minute pulse. Rates continue to pick up here. I think .5-1.0 is in reach to get me to my 4 or so. DC looks good also. The 5.8 at Dulles??? Good for them. 20.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 band keeps looking like its trying to swing more and more south. i would seem to get solid snow for an hour. please last longer, and with larger dendrites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
