Yeah, it's snowing very nicely here now. A few bands like this today would be great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Just now, North Balti Zen said: Yup - we can work with this is it holds and snows like this for awhile. Probably at least 0.5"/hour I'd guess with these rates and flake quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ3 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Had a nice burst of moderate snow in McLean for the last hour. Just starting to lessen a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Snowing lightly in Burke with similarly light returns. Looking juicy to our south and southwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spf Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Just took a Jeb Walk. Man is it beautiful out there. Not that cold, no wind, dry fluffy powder. Trees are filled with white. Just gorgeous. Walked up to the lake near our house to hear the water flowing with the snow glistening in the background. Amazing. Over 6 inches in Great Falls. Best rates of the storm so far were from about 6:30 to 8 am. The Columbia to Rockville deathband moved west across the Potomac. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weather Will Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 About 6 inches here and I have shoveled. About over here. Looking at the radar I will be pleasantly surprised if it has not stopped snowing west of 95 by noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozz Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Snow has picked up a bit and I'm headed outside. Scenery looks really nice. Probably going to measure again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2O Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I see not much on radar to the SW u til you get the ULL. Coastal would need to start throwing precipitation more N for it to have taken over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believe the HRRR then right now is about the minimum coverage of snow, then 10am to 2pm it builds north a bit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowBeach Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Hoping the coastal fills in to add a bit more daytime flakes back in later, but if not I am content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like the second pic. I love that park. It is so pretty there in the fall. I bet the views from the overlook of the mountains/river look amazing in the snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCT_ATC Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 looks to be about over in Warrenton, that is unless this low starts to crank up and spin some of that energy back this way. From watching the last hour or two of radar returns I highly doubt thats going to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snjókoma Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 5.7" in Arlington. Beautiful with moderate snow ongoing at 28 degrees. HRRR says I should be able to reach 8"! Very happy, and I apologize to all the people I doubted. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattb65 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 This lull is forecasted (not a lull imby, still snowing good). Radar should light up starting between 9 and 10 and move north. Looks like it may be snow showery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakkelWx Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I would be happy with 6 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
