MN Transplant Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Tied my gust record at 48mph (from last year's Feb. squall, no gust data for the Derecho due to power outage). Due to trees, I am usually ~20% low so we probably are gusting in the upper 50s at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combo of the two...more people waking up and seeing tree/wires down. More folks driving so they find trees down on roads too, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleocene Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Winds exceeding 14,000mph in College Park. Sending this from my way to orbit, luckily I still get a 4G signal in the stratosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major kudos to all of the models for picking up on the possibility of this event early, and excellent job by the NWS for increasing their wording.

Annapolis: Few power cuts down west street causing issue... Estimated 6pm resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozz Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Very impressive flizzard here. If this went on for a few hours then it would be a serious snowstorm. Probably won't amount to much, but still really cool to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
