Bodhi Cove Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I'm still on the fringe. Probably moderate snow. I'll be orgasmic when I get S+ and it stays for 3 or 4 hours. I'm not in the yellow, they are still to my west. I've pretty much been screwed all day until now and I still feel screwed until the band pushes east a bit. Not in the yellows here either, but I haven't seen snow like this since I was 13 in Steamboat Springs during a New Years blizzard. I'll do everything I can to send this beating your way!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiscaster Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Could I survive a 5 mile walk in these conditions? Considering walking to friends house. If it is a female, yes. Male, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 We may be able to outdo Feb. 10 2010 today but I don't think there will be anyway to confirm. yea between the drifting and compaction I have no idea how to get an accurate measure but it was 24" when I used the snowblower because it was at it above the 2 foot rim more often then not. We've had at least 8-10" since then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 This must be that deform band the models kept painting over the 95 corridor late in the storm that I didn't believe would happen.

MacintoshPro Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I just measured 21", though it could be lower or higher than that in reality. Ill probably defer to DCA for measurements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 25.5 here as of 3:15 I just measured. I couldn't tell if I was 26 or 27. Maybe I'll downgrade to 26. We live close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had at least 8-10" since then We may reach our seasonal snowfall average with one storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEATHER53 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 So now I thin we do not look down toward Richmond or to the west for the cutoff but rather when there is no more supply to the northeast ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUsedToHateCold Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Video of the deathband + wind. I should have waited because the snow has gotten heavier in the past 20 minutes since this was shot. https://player.vimeo.com/video/152833732 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EHoffman Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 So now I thin we do not look down toward Richmond or to the west for the cutoff but rather when there is no more supply to the northeast ? The precip should wrap up from the SW to the NE. So in that direction. The backedge is not progressing west yet, however, because the low is stalled over the DelMarva.

rjvanals Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Deformation ftw!! Back in /'92 (I think) I was in Cazenovia NY (15 mi. east of SYR) and saw the heaviest rates ever (even compared to some of my LES chases)...no lie...10"/hr.!! Every molecule of moisture turns into big dendrites....the forcing mechanism is only surpassed by a 10,000' orographic mountain... Went to Syr from 03-07 and did a ton of Lake Effect chasing up through Oswego/Jeff Counties (chased Oswego/Fulton event in 04' and Parish event in 07' for example). The snow in Dupont Circle was as intense as the Arctic Fronts that sometimes hit the Syracuse Campus and comparable to some of the better lake snow events i've chased.
