bigjohndc Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 This is harder than the 2am band, visibility below quarter mile, sn+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.syringae Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Beautiful, beautiful storm. Moderate to heavy snow in Centreville, VA, with occasional gusts greatly decreasing visibility. Measurement difficult, but I took my snow-loving dog out for a walk and she was drowning in it, so somewhere between 22" and 26". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHoffman Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The pivot is complete, that band should sit over metro DC for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The pivot is complete, that band should sit over metro DC for a while. Would be nice...just let that stuff keep pouring on in from the northeast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 GREarth's mesoanalysis puts the western center (it's a double SLP at this point) about 70 nm ENE of the mouth of the Chesapeake bay. It's been wobbling westward. yea looks like it pumped the breaks allowing more moisture to be thrown back in from the atlantic, which is maybe part of the reason we were able to cash in with the upper level low. this part of the storm reminds me a little bit of the feb 10, 2010 storm.

Max Power Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 It has been snowing moderate to heavy all day long here in downtown Frederick MD. Must be at least 24" now and still no signs of letting up. There's also some wind. No thundersnow, tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHoffman Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Would be nice...just let that stuff keep pouring on in from the northeast! It should be at least 1.5 hours I would think, you can see the contracting of the precip shield from the West but it ain't exactly speeding towards us.

Bob Chill Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I think we're seeing some widespread nuclear snow globing. Stall baby stall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohwxguy Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Finally. Near white out. This is what we've been missing out on since daybreak. Just imagine what our snow total would be if it had set up shop just 15-20 miles further east. Oswego like heavy snow in DuPont now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Highest gusts and heaviest snows so far since overnight right nowThis is awesome. Near-blizzard right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I know that folks tend to get negative when in a "lull" for a bit, while others are raking...but understand the dynamics at play here...DC WILL cash in hard the next 8 hours...your storm is only 60% over ATT....the ratios, snowgrowth profiles, and mid level forcing that will take place are inevitables...patience....

Tater Tot Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The way this storm is deepening and exceeding expectations in so many places, I'm honestly surprised it doesn't have an eye yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 over 3 feet of snow or more - around the house - yardstick is pretty useless - had to crawl on top of the snow to get to the front of the house -- i guess i'll use the front door next time You need to get yourself a drywall T-square. 47 inches long.
