I'm under the dark blue on the bottom side of the Baltimore dot and what's fallen has only been enough to give a light dusting. That might just be the most frustrating thing ever. You look at radar and see great rates right over you and then you look out the window to see flurries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshfsu123 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Had a little melting/compaction earlier, but just measured 9.4 inches for the storm (SE DC - Fairlawn - Randle Highlands). That'll be my final measurement. Wouldn't surprise me if I had over 10 inches overall without the slight melting that occured this afternoon before the coastal low got going. 28/27 - temp is dropping, as the glacier starts to form overnight.

Are any of you near Baltimore? That would be the ultimate punch to the gut lol. It just didn’t work out for us this time. Hopefully next time we do better. I ended up 5.2. Frustrating given how close we were to much more, but also, could have been much worse in terms of far less snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 DCA has probably broken double digits if that measurement was from an hour ago? I cant ever remember a big storm where DCA got 20% more snow than me. Awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spf Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 10.75 inches in Great Falls. Still scratching out some accumulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since my move out of the Old Town heat island, that area has been doing oddly better compared to the western suburbs. We got boned between bands this afternoon and evening... and we're almost surely done with about 7" OTG in Fairfax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Eased up to just flurries here and it looks like in general the lifting mechanism is dying out. Lots of weakening of the bands now. It was a fun evening though. Let's keep the ball rolling for next weekend. That's the BIG one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 5 minutes ago, snowmagnet said: The Northern trend was real in this storm. We thought Fredericksburg was the bullseye, and then just south of DC. And the short term models keeps moving a bit north. But just south really suffered from the mix and north and west did very well! Places like Dale City usually get 4 inches from a Jan storm. That's climo for Dale City. Dale City ended up with 7.3 inches which is amazing, considering climo, but also got in some great fzdz and sleet which will end up fortifying the snowpack against the hated sun. It will also offer up a funny spectacle as people stagger along on the ice like penguins as they try to walk out to get their newspapers. The communities to the north and west have much much better climo, it was no surprise they ended up with nearly a foot of fresh snow from this. Overall, a massively excellent snow for nearly the entire subforum. It is fitting the Rockville deathband annihilated every community it hit.

That's true, the desire to have what's so close to us is frustrating, but putting it in perspective, this was still a success for us and hopefully the start of a very fun pattern.

mikes923 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 4 measurements in the same general area, seems like 10.5-11.5 is a good call around here Just outside of Main st. Ellicott City 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydreb Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 NAM calling for a foot of snow was laughed at but wasn’t far off. Even the Euro was underdoing the snow until the very end when Kuchera was giving us about 8-9”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is 11 miles from my house to Ellicott City. 5.2 inches for my house, a little over double 11 miles away. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's only 15 days. If anything even close to that happens, then today's disappointment will be a distant memory for those of us who didn't score this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snjókoma Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Realized I had to add 0.2 inches to every measurement because of my ruler design, so I revised my total to 10.2” with about 9.7” actually on the ground. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
