mappy Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Damn I still couldn't beat you. I hope you're doing a little better today. Almost beat me! I'm hanging in, thanks for thinking of me. Thurs/Fri will be the really rough days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caviman2201 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Absolute awesomesauce... if the neighbors didn't think I was nuts before, they're sure of it now. Just went for a 20 min Jebwalk and it was glorious. Its frigid, windy and blowing snow everywhere. Had several neighbors that were shoveling/walking their dog/just getting home ask me what I was doing walking around in the snow at night... lol... I did notice that the streets in my neighborhood are a perfect sheet of ice under the snow. Just walking slowly I slipped several times and nearly fell once.

yoda Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 DC gov closed tomorrow. Went for a walk a few minutes ago and the roads are a sheet of ice underneath the snow. The AM will be tough given the low temps and blowing all night. Where do you see that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRWx Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Probably one of my most difficult measurements I have made, but I'm going with 4.7" imby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPsnowman Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 When I last measured I found no spot here with 5 but its difficult to get an accurate measurement with this snow and all the trees around this area. I'll wait and see what the trained spotter in Severn comes in with. I'm not even trying to measure this one with the amount blowing around. My composter is up against a fence though and from the window here it looks like at least 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hell of a sweeping job. Thanks, mixture of sweeping and some shoveling....very easy either way when done on a regular schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haudidoody Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Capital Weather Gang @capitalweather 18m Reagan National had 3.3" of snow as of 8:15p according to airport observer. Seems about right, probably about 4+ inches here in Old Town. Could be up to 5 I guess... Despite all the whining about National, the last time I really had a problem with one of their measurements was the first blizzard of Feb 2010. Otherwise, I'm usually very close.

Fozz Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Accumulating snow looks over now, just very light snow 9.2". That's awesome, probably similar at my house. I'm a little bummed to miss it but hopefully there are more chances. Glad it was a great event for everyone in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow. Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Probably one of my most difficult measurements I have made, but I'm going with 4.7" imby. I never sweep and I swept twice..just to get a gauge on what was going on...still measured in a million places to get the best idea....not an easy storm by any means...

usedtobe Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Just measured 4.5 to 4.75. I'll probably go with the higher amount since I'm gonna go to bed and it's still snowing pretty well albeit not for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Drive-in totals for my location in Silver Spring (near Rock Creek Park, about a mile west of the downtown area) is 6.0". The bands in the late afternoon and evening really helped. Nice event, along with brisk winds, and the snow is powdery. Been a long time since we had a snow like that (even including Commutageddon)! It was a bit difficult to measure due to blowing around, I got some totals a bit under 6", and a few pushing 6.5" or so, so I think an even 6.0 is fair. Still some light snow flying around, but probably won't add much to the total before it ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidlothianWX Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Lots of backfill going on all the way up to CHO. Mod snow has started again here. Looks like the SPC made the right call in extending their disco this far NW. Currently sitting at 1.5". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhotoGuy Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Still snowing. Snowing ~12 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ltrain Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hit the 5" mark. Down to 16 and the winds are really picking up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 measured between 4 and 5" in most spots. the last band dropped about 2-3" here. still a dusty snow falling. didn't get 6-10" where i live, but i don't care. streak broken. big win.

nw baltimore wx Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Accumulating snow looks over now, just very light snow 9.2". 8.5" here. I'm disappointed because I missed doubling by 1.5". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I-83 BLIZZARD Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 10.75 here. Just some flurries. Hard to measure and a lot of compaction and blowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Where do you see that? Nevermind. I read it on the top of their website, but didn't realize it was for today, not tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 even though i didn't see 6-10", the fact that it's pure powder out there makes it a win. it's been a while since we've had a good, dry snow down this way, which is by far my favorite kind of snow. wet snow only looks good after the storm.

Swiscaster Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Just shoveled and measured. 3.9" on average here in Centreville. How is IAD 10 miles to my north almost double? Mine is usually pretty close. Part of my driveway still had a layer of slush under the 2.5" of snow. Surprising, given these temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
