SlowerLowerDE Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 This is a sweet little event for us. All week we were forecast to get a inch maybe. Right now we have a solid 3 inches and it is working steadily toward 4 as moderately heavy snow continues. We only got 7 inches here in southern Delaware during the Blizzard.

Stormpc Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 This is a legit snowstorm in these parts. I would take this any day. Snowing moderately the past hour or so, getting close to 4 inches, if not there already. Atmosphere must have cooled with the heavier returns. No more rimed flakes. All dendrites. 21/20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
