clskinsfan Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Death band has made it to 81 and 64. It should be here in a couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csnavywx Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Nice band of convection heading up into SW Va and into central NC. Plenty of lightning with it. Should start to see that rapidly re-seed the lower layers with ice crystals and get precip going again in a hurry from SW-NE. 32F line is already down to Leonardstown to Easton to Dover, which is a further southeast than it was progged to be at this point.

Jebman Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 O. M. G. I am 28 degrees and I went outside to check things. That IS freezing drizzle. Freezing drizzle is extremely BAD news because it gets on EVERYTHING. There's very little latent heat. The car is icing up. The fence is one big icicle. The bushes are icy. Thank G-d that the driveway wasnt iced up, I'd have fallen right on my azz, I had no frackin' clue that was freezing drizzle, i thought it was just plain regular non-freezing stuff. BE VERY VERY CAREFUL in Dale City. Things are icing up. Its NASTY with that 17 mph NNE breeze too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even some spots on the sidewalk are slick. Nasty out there and will be a slick layer for the snow layer to pile up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I can confirm Buddy1987's statement about an hour ago, it is snowing so hard here the cameras on 64 are blurred. EASY 2 inches in last hour and still pouring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I'e got some zr/ice crystals, light rain and snow. 30.1. Bridge jumpers in the model thread. Usual suspects and the Debbie downer guests.

Bob Chill Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Getting icy man. Just walked the dog for a few miles. Concrete sidewalks are 75% ice. North facing driveways are rinks. Nice crusty layer of snow, sleet, and ice on the grass. Good base for a shellacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDM Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Just NW of Vienna,... (for you on cell phones) After being at 29 for the last 5-6 hours, we just bumped up to 30. dp is at 29. Precip hasn't stopped entirely since it started raining this morning. The drz waned in the mid/late afternoon, but it never stopped entirely. Added what's to come, when was the last time we had any sort of precip for nearly 48hrs non-stop w/o interruption? This is indeed a rare bird for a multitude of reasons. That inbound bow from the SW is wicked. NWS put up some SWS (Special Weather Stmts) along the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adelphi_sky Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Some people can't see the forest for the trees. LEt them fret over models while the rest of us enjoy a warned snowfall in late March! Who cares if trends go down or up. It WILL snow tomorrow. Go out and enjoy it while it lasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Its nowcast time. I'm enjoying the radar and cheering on all the folks who ARE getting destroyed. I'll get plenty of snow too, but I can always chase out to Jefferson and maybe even Berkeley on Thursday. I'd love to get stuck in a monster 4 foot drift in Martinsburg, best dilemma to have. I'd enjoy a truly EPIC jebwalk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
