Kmlwx Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The super heavy stuff seems to be training south of DC - but rates here are respectable even outside of the bands. Time for another walk out there. Probably nearing 5 inches but will have to measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Gorgeous scene out there. I love those pine trees in the snow. My neighbor has a couple in their yard. I posted pictures of them with my 11:00 report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 25 out. Snow picked up again. Just did our first clear off of the drive. Took out my non-scientific snow stick and took a few measurements. I got an average out to 6". Driveway is already completely covered again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Random Chaos Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Rough estimates of snowfall: Low-drifted location on gravel driveway: about 2" Highest drift: 8" Lowest valley next to drift: 0.1" (sleet layer from this morning only, no snow) More of the yard is drifted than un-drifted, I am not sure if anything doesn't have drift effects, but I tried to choose a location on the driveway that looked uniform depth.

Jebman Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I have 19 inches on the season. I am now only 2 inches from full climo. I'd have been pretty satisfied with 10-12. Wow what a back-loaded winter!!!!! Pouring snow. Half an inch in the past 25 minutes. This band kicks some serious 8ss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 50/50 sleet/snow again in NE Calvert. 31F. Just 0.4" of sleet/snow mix so far. It looks to me like you're about to get into the fun. You might also have the added advantage of significant snow lingering past sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEATHER53 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Early Afternoon discussion The pacific flow is ending but some gulf flow does appear to be entering. Back edge has raced thru Kentucky over last 4 hours and if that progression is unchanged then snow would end between 5-6pm but I believe that progression will be slowed. The north edge of the precip is showing very little southward progression, a baro of 30.30, which begins suppression around DC, is currently located in east central ohio so not concerend about that charging into DC. For now I will maintain my idea that accumulating snow will not end in DC before 10pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
