Of course, just outside the airport could definitely verify those numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Should be close - air feels wet but don’t think it is snowing quite yet at my house in Balt city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last light in Clarksburg: and, the obligatory deck pic: I have this one set to time lapse thru midnight Sunday. Should be fun to watch WAA—>coastal—>ULL.

Bob Chill Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 For those who want to geek out... lol. Warm air advection precip moves in waves. Looks like ripples in the water on high res satellite. Cod site has cloudtop loop so you can track the waves. Dark blues and greens are usually the best precip because of best lift. Right now around and north of winchester has a good band and one is approaching I66 Check out this link https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=LWX-EET-1-12 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of...we were planning on driving back tomorrow but when it looked like it’d be worse than originally forecasted, decided to come back today. Also not missing a 6-10” storm so there’s that. Aaaand light snow now...it’s on! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Installed a string of lights last spring in back yard for my daughter’s wedding reception (which we hosted). I have been hoping to see what it looks like with them with snow falling. About to find out. Fine flakes, we are underway here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Deck dusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristowWx Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 As far as every flake sticking well that did not happen here. It wasn’t cold enough long enough for that. The sun has set now and it’s stsrting to cover over. Temps are always an issue even when they are not an issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Definitely fighting some dry air here in Baltimore County...radar would make you think it's coming down at a good clip but it's just very light off and on powdered sugar. Seems like folks in Arlington and southern Fairfax County at the lower elevations in DC are encountering the same thing. Really hope we can moisten the column sooner rather than later.

aldie 22 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 You know how you can tell if you have a negative/pessimistic personality....you find something to complain about even though it is snowing and every model on earth gives you 6"+ 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just starting to glaze pavement the last few minutes. Beautiful night. I suspect we will all get pulsed with lulls throughout the night until that main body of precipitation in Far Southwest Virginia and Tennessee can get here.
