stormtracker Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Just had a nice heavy snow band in Upper NW DC. Very pretty out. Evertything is covered. Now alternating between sleet and snow. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 2 minutes ago, 09-10 analogy said: Yeah the expectations were high and that might distort my thinking but in all fairness this has been a pretty solid winter for DC so far. A MECS, a SECS/mixfest today, the mid-November teaser, the all-day light event a while back, a few other shoestrings. Reached single digits on at least one night. I must not have been paying much attention to the ice last (?) week since it wasn't much here, but that seems to have been a pretty big deal to the north and west in terms of tree damage. So a little bit of everything, except an out-of-season severe event. (I'm thinking Feb 25 from a couple of years ago.) If we can score one more event I’ll be thinking B+ or A-. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deer Whisperer Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 could end up with an inch of sleet if this keeps up temp on a very slow uphill climb since about 9am, up to 30F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 7 minutes ago, ers-wxman1 said: Is that right? Whomever made the forecasts at LWX looks to be spot on, though many of the experts here said the forecast was too bullish. They've been very good all winter IMBY. I don't know if you work there or what (I'm not into the whole forum clique that knows everyone in-person) so maybe your response was some kind of inside joke?

CAPE Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 9 minutes ago, Mdecoy said: I actually think lack of precip here and not temperatures will be what keeps totals lower. Looks to shut off out to the west long before temps are an issue. Guidance generally all had less precip for eastern areas during the cold part of the event. Another reason I was not at all enthused about this. And ofc the model snowfall maps were completely awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm perfectly fine with three 4-6 inch events during winter. Of course, a 12-inch storm/blizzard is icing on the cake. This winter has been okay when not bogged down in model forecasting. Not the best, but okay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Ripping fatties here in severna park. Looks like 4+ inches on the ground. Surprised it turned back to all snow. Hearing a ping or 2 as I type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErinInTheSky Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 This has been a great winter for me. Prior to this I never experienced a WSW level snow. This winter I got two of them and beat climo! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 10 inch plus storm with no mixing immediately got me to B-. The couple of other little events, arctic air, and this get me to B maybe even a B+ the more I think about it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
