snowdude Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 A total of 5 inches in Salisbury! Decent storm and it feels good when you get the forecast right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Gonna go with 4" even for final total. Actual measurements towards the end were slightly less than that (around 3.5"-3.75"), but it was compacting and melting while it was snowing, plus I usually round to the nearest half inch.

DC Mike Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Between 5-6 here. Nice storm. It looks like the 4-6 from NWS will verify in Sussex County.

PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 There was light snow when I left for work which continued all the way up until I got past Dunkirk. My wife (who's still at home) is saying its snowing decently now but not sticking to much of anything. Radar looks like a blob just over southern MD. I'll put this down as a Trace unless she says its starting to cover everything, then I'll figure out what to record. This would be 9 days out of the last 16 (since 2/12) that I've had at least a Trace or more. When I was sitting on my deck in upper 60's on 2/8, thinking of my whopping 1.5" seasonal total at the time, I would have never guessed this is what the rest of the month would look like! Btw when I came out to leave I noticed on my car the snowflakes were all little perfect 6-sided dendrites. I rarely see that. The good news is most of my spring bulbs have survived! I been covering them over at night and during snowstorms... though I left them uncovered today not thinking it was going to snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowershoresadness Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Does anyone have thoughts about this coming hurricane season? Please please let it be more active than the last 2 seasons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantHiatus Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Does anyone have thoughts about this coming hurricane season? Please please let it be more active than the last 2 seasons! Semi-enthusiastic due to the ENSO. Looks like it is transitioning into central-based, also known as Modoki El Nino. This configuration includes years such as 2003 and 2005. With the 1930's pattern, we may have a strong signal shifted east instead of confined to the gulf. Given the lag between ENSO and atmospheric response, the true red meat season may not come until 2016. Something like 2014 with more landfalls is definitely possible, which would resemble a fairly active season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 My sources tell me there's more light snow in Prince Frederick again. Another little blob on radar over us. Still nothing more than a Trace, but any refresher snowflakes are acceptable after the beating my snowpack took yesterday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvantHiatus Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Thanks for your thoughts. A lack of activity makes for a long summer. Hopefully we can get some long track Cape Verde systems going without the damn shear tearing them apart Thanks mang. I'm kind of feeling a gulf stream season and it flows well with 2014. The Atlantic has not changed much but the Pacific is where major evolution is occuring. We are still stuck with this annoying +NAO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Thanks for your thoughts. A lack of activity makes for a long summer. Hopefully we can get some long track Cape Verde systems going without the damn shear tearing them apart Nice to see a little tropic discussion going on. One of my favorite storms to track. Hopefully we have a better season this year. I'm sick of hearing "dry air in the mid-levels" all season long. I definitely don't share my interest in hurricanes with most people. They tend to think your crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
