RevWarReenactor Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 The air must be really dry and the PV must be doing its job because we have green echos on radar and not a single flake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Last hurrah is pretty nice. Fluffy dendrites and mod rates. Will end up being a totals ladder. I was pretty confidence with mby forecast of 6-8". If it wasn't for the dry air lull I would have easily hit the bottom end. Still could but it will be tricky. Very nice event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The snow now is fluffier than earlier... will go out and do a final measurement once it stopped. Had around 3 inches as of 9am but it is also hard to measure due to the high winds and blowing snow. Hoping we can get another hour or two out of the storm... may be able to get to 5 inches if rates are good enough. Hey I heard you are in the Navy Yard area....can you confirm?

WEATHER53 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Would imagine that these late morning and afternoon temps in the teens would be low max records if they were the daily highs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just measured 5.5" and still SN About 5". The snow stopped earlier, but started again and is really coming down.

Very nice event For you, I'm sort of in the hole between the good band way to may south and the one over you. I suspect your's will press southward but it doesn't always do that uniformly.

Deck Pic Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I guess it has been mentioned that DC has only hit single digits in March twice on record...in 1872 and 1873.....11 degrees would tie for 6th.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgillesp Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Not sure if this counts, but here are some high framerate cameras around MD.

NorthArlington101 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I'm not sure its snowing... It's a graupel snow mix at the very least. 5" of powder, and feeling pretty lucky.

Even with radar returns...the dry air is too much, most of its not reaching the ground Dont let post like this concern you guys to the east. My snow stopped for almost an hour And I am getting my heaviest snow of the day right now. If you get under the good returns you will get dumped on.
