wxdude64 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 From the looks of radar and glancing out the front door at work, looks like we are done here. I'll guess it is in the 3 inch range for a total by what is on the cars in the lot that came in on this shift and what was on the ground earlier. Not bad, hope it continues heading NE for all you to enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the blizzard. DC and SE people despaired until the whiteout started in the afternoon That's definitely what happened with me last year. We got basically this little light snow we've been getting today all morning and I was so irritated. Then the back end moved east over me and it just dumped snow for a good 3-4 hours in the afternoon. I still ended up with less than the areas 20 miles west of 95, but it was a lot of fun in the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dry air didn't help but its pretty clear the best lift never made it overhead west of 95. There was a bit of dec 2010 to this. System consolidated and jumped east northeast before phasing and turning north. That's our worst nightmare. Manages to suppress south of us then still turn up and hit those bastages to our north that stick out into the ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite to the same extent as that one, but NYC is going to cash in and Boston is going to get clobbered. So frustrating. This could have been a big one here.

RDM Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Rate just picked up significantly here in Vienna. Not just mood snow now. Lots of dime sized flakes. If this keeps up for long at all I'll have to change the data on my signature for this one from "less than 1/2" to "a 1/2"... whoopee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had some stuff to track this month so it hasn't been boring. Don't think we're done yet in the next 10 days. Lots of cad sig stuff showing up. Those can be more friendly in our area in general. Hopefully something comes together before we go warm for a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
