clskinsfan Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 First measure is 3.5 and just dumping here. I was laughing at the models showing my area with 10 inches from this. But these rates will add up quickly. Still dont think I get ten. But I could end up on the high side of my 5-8 guess for sure.

It’s easy to get bogged down by the debs in our own sub forum, so it seems I conflated your comments with theirs. It's all good.

PWC Split Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 First snow plow came through about 10 minutes ago and the road is already covered again. Flake size not as large as it was about 30 minutes ago, but it is still pouring snow in Haymarket. Definitely nearing 3 inches, but will measure at top of the hour.

midatlanticweather Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Between 2 and 3 already - looks closer to 3. In meetings or I would have already measured. Looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEOS5ftw Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Just did a fun measurement with the kitchen scale - put out a large plate and measured 52 grams in 15 minutes. Dividing by the area of the plate gives a mass change of 0.34 g/hr/cm^2 which is 3.4 mm/hr, close to what some of the mesos were predicting in the narrow bands. Fun stuff. eta: Just measured 2" on the ground here in Wheaton. Pretty impressive consdiering first flakes were a little more than a hour ago. My bar of 3" looks like it will easily be met. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayyy Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 to all of my fellow snow weenies in Towson Whitemarsh and Parkville, hang in there! Snow is coming. I know you guys are prob shitting bricks up there without any precip yet. It’s coming! I do however fear they may only get 3-4” with the best lift being to their SW. Sadly, this comes with the territory. 1-2” per hour rates falling in MoCo HoCo means sinking air is happening somewhere as a result - in this case; E/NE/ sections of the CWA. Skinsfan jackpot. Called it the other day. You will absolutely hit 8-10” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Even in the lighter band, still have dendrites so snow growth still good upstairs. Love to track a dendrite as it gently falls from the sky (leesburg04 shoutout). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
