Swiscaster Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Why did NWS up my chances to 80% (was 60) and the accums to 1" or less (was half-inch)? (I thought I was the only degenerate that would stay up to watch a Wizards west coast game.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 22z RAP gets us 0.01" of precip over the next 18 hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Well, this is a big surprise, I've picked up 1.5 new snow since about 4:30 pm, big fluffy quarter dollar sized flakes that sparkle on the ground. Still snowing, radar seems to be locked directly over my county?? No complaints here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 For those keeping track of the virga evaporation level, try a TDWR closest to you. Andrews AFB showing that band making it to near the ground over SoMD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still way under climo this year, but nice to see a decent event that is covering up even the main roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It appears that band you're in is inching ever so slowly close to me. Its epic if you get into it! I've gotten almost another inch in last 30 minutes! HUGE flakes, check the 511 traffic cams for up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amped Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Tons of people have just abandoned their cars in AL/GA etc. What happens to those cars? They will come back to them when the snow melts, and still beat DC commute times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It's gonna be close but it looks like DC will actually get into the outside band later. Radar kinda shows it pretty nicely. Even if it doesn't reach the ground it's still a band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Idk Mitch, I must have my weenie goggles on because I'm pretty sure dc is going to get under a band by 10pm or so. It's kinda lining up. Might only be a car topper but still. Snow is snow. I'm pretty sure I get into some snowtv myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
