pasnownut Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Good morning gang. Been up throughout the night looking out the window and in firemen talk....we are "heavily involved" in what looks to be an awesome event for many. Mod/heavy snow right now and rough guess is 6-7" in Akron. Now time to get some coffee and get caught up. Enjoy all. Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Picked up another 1 1/4" in the last hour with 9 1/2 inches total in Hanover. Temp is sitting at 24 degrees. Rates have picked up somewhat in the last 10-15 minutes and look to pick up even more with heavier returns now begging to move into the area.

Anduril Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Coming down at a good rate here in Lower Allen Township. Havent gone out to measure yet but eyeballing would be around 2in on the ground. So happy I've got a snow day early enough to enjoy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeffsvilleWx Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 These posts including "slamming, ripping, crushing, and pouring" are really getting tiresome. If you can't form an obs post with empirical measurements (or at least your best guess), perhaps it shouldn't be posted. I have no idea what your definition of "slamming, ripping, crushing or pouring" is and chances are, it differs from my definition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Picked up another 1 1/4" in the last hour with 9 1/2 inches total in Hanover. Temp is sitting at 24 degrees. Rates have picked up somewhat in the last 10-15 minutes and look to pick up even more with heavier returns now begging to move into the area. Amazing! Eyeballing maybe 2" here as I haven't been out, but I can still see my footprints where I walked to my measurement area. Hoping to get in on those high rates soon.

NortheastPAWx Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Flake size is really bad here. Looks like the forcing is going to pass to our east as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternUSWX Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I think it means heavy snow. Pretty obvious lol. I haven't seen this heavy of snow in years. Wow. Got to be 2" per hr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 It's slamming.. There is no different meanings. It means it is snowing extremely hard. Usually 1" or greater per hour. Calm down. You just have to be a rebel. I'm sure there are a few others who feel the same way Neffsville and myself do. I think it means heavy snow. We know what it means, but it's annoying. Respect science. Or at least the true definitions and descriptions of precipitation rates per the NWS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cashtown_Coop Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 15" already reported in Frederick county. Band has 1-3/hr rates. Cousin in northern Baltimore county reports sleet mixing in for our York/ Lan crew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasnownut Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Guys, it is really cranking here. S+ and as I've snowmobiled in the Tug Hill plateau many time and know what 3-4" per hour looks like, I've got to say that while were not quite there, we are approaching 1 1/2 -2"/hr rates. winds picking up out of the east and looks quite impressive. Snowmobile seat is my snowboard, so measurement coming after more coffee.. In the infamous words of Phil Robertson...Happy...happy..happy!.
