evaporativecooler Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 just measured 8.5" imby (montgomery village), 22.5 degrees moderate snow. If I didn't know better I'd say it was January in central Pennsylvania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deck Pic Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Def would appear that way... even if we dont get anything midday... this storm is a win on so many levels... this storm and winter are total wins..I thought about crashing, but I am going to give it at least until 4....only a few months and we'll be checking 10am OBS to see if DCA is 88 yet....

Deck Pic Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I'm sitting here with all my house lights off and outside lights on. What a beautiful seen. It's snowing at a inch plus per hour. It looks like a thick fog has set in. I'm blown away by this storm. It just keeps pumping in the snow. I took some serious measurement about 20 minutes ago. I averaged 6.5". My saying goes. NEVER TRUST A SNOW HATER lol. You guys rock! they are morally bankrupt and have black hearts.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 we're closers....I think 8" for you is reachable....we're good at only a few things- - 95 degree days, wind, 80 degree mins - - and backbuilding, and finale bands are 2 of those things Yeah, shouldn't be a huge difficulty given radar. Even 2-3" on the side road at this point. Ratios were good as it falls but it's pretty wet considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternUSWX Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 this storm and winter are total wins..I thought about crashing, but I am going to give it at least until 4....only a few months and we'll be checking 10am OBS to see if DCA is 88 yet.... and worrying about if too much cloud cover will ruin our severe chances for the day.

Jebman Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 25 degrees, steady snow, and closing in on 6 inches. Ratios are definitely better than they were at 9pm. Radar show no sign of a letup. I was thinking that if a 1 inch snowstorm is climo for mid March then what does that make this storm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshfsu123 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Heaviest snow of the night/morning just moved in... really coming down and visibility is horrible. Haven't measured since 1am (was at 3.75 inches) --- definitely approaching 5 inches, if not already there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True to the cause. I set a 2am limit but am all wired. Over 8" now and the second best storm of the season with mod snow coming down. A blessing and icing on such a fun year. And oddly enough we may get another track before 90's set in. The last 5 weeks have been a true ma special period. We'll discuss this for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshfsu123 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Feel bad for the one plow truck in our neighborhood... he/she plows the roads and they are basically coated again 2/3 minutes afterwards at these rates... not really making much impact, other than clearing empty roads for 5/10 minutes and then they are snow covered again.

evaporativecooler Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Many people here have just gotten more snow in a 10 hour mid march storm than they did the entire winter of 2011-2012. Mindblowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
