WxUSAF Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 40F. Torch. Shoveling was rough. Had to chip away hard-packed ice on the bottom with slush on top so the meltwater pond at the base of my driveway could flow to the drain. Steady diet of ibuprofen today.

ravensrule Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I'd be fine with that For all the moaning this has been a fine winter. If it ended today it would still be good. If we get 1 more inch it will be 2 years in a row above climo. How often do we get that around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

das Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 39.1F here in Clarksburg. 200' driveway was a challenge for my back, I needed some Jebman help there at the end. The snow was as heavy as the super-ULL in 2011. It's great for making ridiculously tall snow piles tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Nice living in the woods with 300 ft driveway. Shoveling it is out of the question. Although I did get stuck the other night and had to shovel myself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I'm having a real hard time trying to figure out how much I got. I know it was at least 6.5", but then there's a spotter report with 7.5" just north of me. Anyone else in the area have measurements? I'm going with 6.5" from around 8 when sleet began mixing in. Reports around me (none all that close though) are higher and it's possible there was more here but also possible not. I'm not sure how much if any accumulation of ice occurred after 8. First sleet/freezing rain, some plain rain I think, then a lot of freezing rain/drizzle. There was a nice glaze last night. Today is mashed potatoes whereas last night more of a shepherd's pie. 32 was my low. Sun out now and 36. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 43 windows open...about to mow LOL On another note- Ended up with 11.0 here on 1.59 liquid. Another 0.07 fell overnight after flip to ZR. Sun starting to push through clouds, melting has started. 13-18 inches on the ground, 15 average, 2.35 SWE. Stayed below freezing until 8 am this morning, now 34.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighStakes Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 The only way they measured that low was if they only measured in the low spots and didn't factor the drifts in at all. You're not going to believe this but I just looked at Sterling's storm reports and the guy I was waiting to report came in with 5.5 at 10:19 last night. What is he doing. I live 1 mile from him and have a minimum of 2.5 inches more. The other 2 spotter in the area came in with 7.4. I going with a final total of 8 to keep it in line with other reports. There was also someone who posted on the forum from Hampstead and said he had 8.5 and that was before it stopped snowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 46.1. Euro had this nailed yesterday. All of the American models kept us in the 30s Yeh, from the Euro a couple of days ago, I thought we might make it into the low 50s. Still going up so maybe we can have our one glorious, a touch above normal high. I think our average is around 49 today and is 50 by wed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Spring conditions. I knew this would happen deep in my soul today. 47 degrees. WE WILL HIT 50, maybe even 55. In this part of eastern VA - NOTHING stops mild weather when it's time. It just happens. I am going to lose at least 70 percent, maybe 95 percent of areal coverage today. I am only 65 feet above mean sea level. When it warms up here IT WARMS UP! We are no different than the lower Delmarva Peninsula right near Va Beach lmao. When winter is over its OVER! Tip Typhoon in the NE forums is saying that the EPO is about to go full positive - and that thawing will start. I'm a believer. What is more, tonight's low temp has been modified in the point and click - to 28 degrees. Tomorrow we will be above freezing. We are already in a far different regime from the past week, a completely different regime. I have a sense for this sort of thing. We should have a contest for what today's high temp will be. I say 52 degrees in Dale City. I wonder if DCA with UH effect can hit 55-58? Welcome to the TROPICAL Mid Atlantic. Theres a damn good reason I MOAN about warm weather in late Feb in Dale City. It is frequent. The mass meltoff today will in turn fuel much warmer temps all week. Then next week the positive EPO will exert mightily upon the MA. The modeling has had to play frantic catch up with the warming. 48 hours ago we were supposed to cool to 15 tonight. Now its upper 20s. By March 8th the SE ridge will absolutely dominate our weather, and we will be as mild as Austin Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Today reminds me a lot of skiing in southern California as a kid. Way better than snow in mid Jan in that regard. Very nice out if you can avoid the giant slush puddles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I had a chuckle this morning when I saw the CWG forecast on my news feed...the headline with the Daily Digit was- A bit warmer but not enough to melt much snow or ice. Its 42 here currently...was just out on my deck in a short sleeve shirt watching the rapid melt off. Felt great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
