Cobalt Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 1.5" total. Seems like it may be final, since there's more rain than sleet, but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hurried outside to get a measurement when that green/yellow area was overhead, and while I was outside, the switch back to mostly rimed flakes happened. When I got back in and checked radar, that area had moved beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Moderate rates, mixed bag 32.9° eyeballing 1.5" - 2" snow before sleet city moved in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Left New Windsor and back in Reisterstown. It's like a snow globe here...whole different story with precip once you go a bit south. Well over 1" on all the side streets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVsnowlover Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 1.5" here. Best snowfall of the season! Wish it would just snow all night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDstorm Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Talk about fragile temps. Went rapidly from heavy snow to heavy sleet. Now back to moderate snow. MDstorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering if we can get 2". It's dumping rimed flakes right now. Covered up the sleet divots right away. I'm guessing I was at about 1.8" before it switched.

dukeblue219 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Enough good wet snow to build my kiddos first real snowman. I'll call that a win! I didn't measure this one but looks like a solid 2" on grass and .75" on the road before the sleet and rain started back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scraff Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Had a great Jebwalk. 2” measured on the deck. Eta: Obviously best event of the year. How long until the next opps start showing up? Late next week perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Anyone in Fairfax County reporting sleet? Plain rain in McLean 1.5" seems like the final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Inch at home. Family says it’s raining but I don’t know if that means sleet or rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePhotoGuy Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Snow started around 2 PM. Snow started as a "snow pellets." Wetter larger flakes around 3. At 5 roads caved. Temp Currently 33.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Annnnd..It's pretty much over. That was quick. A few days ago this was going to be an overnight event of 8 or 10 hours. Turns out to be a four-hour daytime event. Should be gone for most by 7pm. Good event for everyone north of the hell hole I live at so at least you have that.

Its basically an inch, no street stickage, and now we are over to rain after a storm that only lasted 2 hours. Consider yourself lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Looks like I bottomed out at 32.7. Up to 32.9 now. Got about 1.5, maybe a bit more before sleet started doing its thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably will go over to just rain at the end, but maybe we can hang onto frozen precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ka60 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Clarksburg, Moderate Snow continues. I am very surprised as it hasn’t mixed yet! Over 3” already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Final of 1.5". All things considered, not a bad event! Certainly feels better that this February will not end up snowless. Here's to the next event! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeathermanB Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Roads in my neighborhood are poorly treated as well as some of the main roads. They are covered in white. Expecting a brief changeover to rain then ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
