DSF Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Just a dusting on the grass and slush on the sidewalks in NE Baltimore. It was fun snow to watch though. Had to take my son to the doc and we stopped at Atwater's on the way back and grabbed lunch with fat flakes pouring down. Too bad there wasn't real stickage. If I snag a delay to go with the early closing I'll be satisfied with this event, full coverage or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 This is really cool. Squalls tomorrow should be fun for someone... I can guess where! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happened here? Why is this warm air holding on so strong? Dw it will be plenty cold enough for snow beginning tomorrow, just no moisture.

Steve25 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 To be totally honest, I wasn't expecting much at all from this, but I enjoyed it a lot. I only got a half an inch but the snow was really heavy and big flakes while it lasted and I got to walk in it a bit. Obviously it's not the goal for winter, but at the end of the day I have to remember to enjoy ANY snow that falls and I did! Now I'll enjoy the cold the next few days before we torch next week.

Basically another busted forecast for Northern Delaware, including me just below the Canal. Never got the cold air in and a lackof precip. I hope tomorrow is more exciting. Eh, maybe not .

Bob Chill Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 It's a shame that the real arctic front won't move through until mid day tomorrow. Hoping I can hang on to at least some of the snowcover for the deep freeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I measured 2.5" two miles NNE of Germantown, which puts me at 19.3 for the winter. Incredible good luck considering how bad the winter has been for much of the I-95 corridor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m at 31.5 now. It was more of a commentary on how the story of this event changed from a serious cold front to a weak cold front followed by the real cold air a day later.

ThePhotoGuy Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 A trace would be generous in a final total here. A very very light dusting on mulch, car tops, and wood. Everything else is just wet. Had good rates for hours of rain and even snow for 1-2 hours but just never accumulated. Started out warm and ended warm. Even the "final band" that came through was pretty weak by the time it got here. Rates were better before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full sun and close to 30 degrees before the front. It's dry fluffy snow too so it will melt and evaporate. We'll see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem maybe temps spiking a bit right before the real front arrives. Ive seen it happen before even as a squall line approaches. Nothing outrageous but areas south of you could go above freezing for a brief time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't do our streets and it's like 1-2" of slush. Going to be a sheet of ice tomorrow morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Turned into a pretty classic fall line elevation-dependent storm. Certainly were signs of that going in on the model progs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osfan24 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 HRRR really picking up the squall for tomorrow now. We are on the southern edge, but it looks like a real fun event for NJ and NYC. It really blows up as it approaches the coast and isn't the razor thin line we've seen on guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
