I know The last few runs of NAMs nailed it for east of I-95. Zippo. The FV3 on the other hand.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RevWarReenactor Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Nothing but rain here in Delaware. Maybe a couple flakes in. I wasn't expecting much, but I wasn't expecting a complete fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman. Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 3" as well in the Sterling area. Nice event! Been a pretty decent January at the end of the day for snowfall here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mordecai Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I ended up with around 1.5". Like I said earlier, the band with the fat flakes made this event worth it. Too bad we had to start out with rain, or it could've been more. Took a pretty slushy jebwalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingstonian Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 0.5" as of 7:05pm looks to be my storm total for SSW Franconia/Kingstowne, as snow has stopped. The last band was pretty but I don't think the rates kept up with melting, and unlike the earlier band the roads never cared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snjókoma Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 0.5" here. Disappointing event in its progression but I did get to take a drive and observe some cool elevation microclimates. Also it snowed heavily for like 20 minutes. thank u next, on to friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Meh, I was kinda disappointed in this event. My roads are just wet and I just ended up with a coating. That dry slot really hurt me before the final hurrah, which was pretty good but very brief and the lull was too much to overcome in terms of getting street accumulation in the end. Happy for those that had a great event though. Sounds like the western part of our region did really well, and it was nice for our far NW friends to finally get something. Beautiful outside though, that's for sure, especially during the final hurrah. Seemed to me like the Euro did the best job by far. Pretty much nailed the storm. NAM was far too jumpy and GFS and FV3 were too high on totals. Euro pretty much nailed this by giving highest totals to the northwest folks and decreasing totals to an inch as you got to 95 and then almost nothing toward the bay.

jayyy Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Measured a few spots with 2.5”, a few with 2”, a few with 2.25... 2.25” will do it. I’ll take it over nada! Fresh snowpack and a deep freeze leading into Friday’s possible storm. Come on baby! this winter has been good to us so far, who knows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did have accums east of the bay though, although it dropped it below an inch at 12z. NAMs were too low on the snow overall where it did fall, but in the end totally nailed the low level warmth on the coastal plain and had zero snow east of I-95. That verified, although maybe the lower eastern shore can salvage a coating from those bands moving NE from eastern VA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NAM was definitely too low for those of us who are just N/W of the fall line. It was ok here, especially in the hills. But as you said, the low-level warmth was a good catch, and we went through several hours of white rain before it finally started accumulating. That's probably why the western areas did better.... they got the cold air first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderdog Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Three measurable events in January, maybe not as bad as it seems. With three more events in February, we'll bust through climo like sh_ _ through a goose. And we haven't even had any blocking to speak of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
