Jebman Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 It's a good day to be in Dale City - if you love ground blizzards. That wind is blowing the snow all over the place! Lots gusts into the mid 30s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The intensity of snow in Rockville is unbelievable. We have to have over two feet. Drifts are immense as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I live on Dairy Farm rd so I'm close to you. Its been disappointing during the day today. Overnight wasn't bad but I just shoveled for an hour and maybe got a slight dusting during that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wak2x Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 +SN and breezy conditions for the last several hours. Desperately making a run at 20". Not sure we get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 18.5" tho. Good storm Had 6.5" last measurement last night Today I went to previously shoveled areas that were NOT corrupted by drifting. Taking between 10-20 readings the range was 11-14 with 12 the most common. So 18.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxnut Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Now that this thing is giving NYC a good pounding as well, this storm should rank pretty high on the NESIS scale when it's all said and done. This could end up as only the third "5" on the scale.. just under the Blizzard of 1996. Certainly a high 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drifts are immense as well. Just looking at the radar loops it looks like Rockville is getting crushed while about 8 miles east the band is just paralleling route 29. I'm right on the fringes of that wishing it would fill in ever so slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickinBaltimore Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I shoveled my sidewalk and path in the back to put trash out about 2 hours ago. Got another 3-4 inches since then. Starting to snow heavy again with looks to be fatter flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I wouldn't say AA Co has been ignored by the storm. There's 16" on the ground w higher drifts. And we were never forecast to be the jackpot zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So difficult to measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deck Pic Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 11:45, 26, -SN, 14.25". Definitely some compaction. I am also going to seek out new measuring locations as there is too much drifting where I am and I don't think I am getting a fully accurate reading. Need to verify? If I take a bunch of measurements in a park on grass, how much should I subtract? I hate measuring on grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
