Kingstonian Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Measured 0.4" of snow/sleet mix at 11:45pm, SSW Franconia/Kingstowne, FFX County. Wasn't paying close enough attention to know when it flipped to plain rain, so I probably lost a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 0.5" of snow. Was moderate to even heavy briefly, but has flipped to moderate sleet. Maybe a few flakes mixed in still. Temp is 31. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 An inch and if we can really hold the mix line off until 4am, might eke out another inch. Gorgeous here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowCane Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Snow, then a little sleet, to now freezing rain in Gaithersburg. I don’t have a thermometer but the leaves are icy, and definitely feels cold out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve25 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Eeked out an inch before the changeover, right NE of Baltimore. Now it's sleet/freezing rain/rain the rest of the way. Glad we got SOMETHING out of this one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only snow I expected was at the very onset(tonight) and that portion is mostly over. Always expected any frozen precip on Monday to be in the form of sleet or freezing rain and frankly if that winds up being rain instead, that's cool with me because I want nothing to do with ice. This storm was never going to be a big deal regarding snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdsofprey02 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Decent dusting of snow, some sleet, now some mix fz rain... 31.5 and rising. AAco probably entirely above freezing in an hour or two. Schools may even open on time. Nothing shocking here, but was hoping to hear stories of staying frozen longer, seems the consensus is temps rising fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Just starting to look over the the NAMs now. 12K favors the dividing line between fairly significant snow/ice and meh to setup around DC whereas the 3K sees it around Balt. Believe the differences here are because the 12 NAM is wetter then the 3K. Better rates = better cooling of the column. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Mentioned yesterday I thought we would see a heavier burst of precip roll through today in the afternoon though the models weren't really picking up at it that time. Had to do with decent lift running through the region and an interjection of moisture from the west into a somewhat moisture deprived environment that the models were not seeing too well. Models are now picking up on that feature as we see a heavier band now forming DC and north just in time for rush hour. Right now when looking at surface projections the NAMs favor Balt and north to score on the snow/frozen with this feature. I think the models are still under playing this band of heavier precip so I am somewhat expecting that we see snow/ice/sleet actually verify close to or into DC as we get better cooling of the column. Right now surface temps are borderline especially Balt and north. See better cooling from heavier rates and the Rush hour could be quite hairy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
