Fozz Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Some of the HRRR runs actually saw this northern dryslot coming around this time. This might be it for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 That it? Around 4”. It was awesome for a couple hours under that band. Didn’t expect it to fall apart so fast up here though. Thought we would be in heavy precip until 3-4pm. Oh well. Not bad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we get some good rates not bad I guess. I still want one more good snow at 25F before we call it a winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 4.0". Likely final. Pretty great storm though. 21" on the year! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping for another burst of snow before the changeover. Yup, fingers crossed for one more burst. 3.75” for me, a little more to get to 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danajames Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 About 4" here in Edgewood....it's been snowing moderate to heavy since about 9:00 a.m. Just went on a 2 mile walk and it was beautiful. Few thing better in life than that. The snow rate has come down a bit over the past 1/2 hour and I would assume the transition to sleet is knocking on my door. Here's hoping for a colder than normal March and a few more chances of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErinInTheSky Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 5.5” is my likely final total unless this dry slot gets filled in. Not bad. Didn’t get any sleet so to speak of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I was getting pixie dust interleaved with dry notches the whole time until recently. Best snow of the day the past hour or so here.

BlizzardNole Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 5.0 total for me in the Milestone area of Germantown. Puts me at 26.5 for the winter which is incredible given the overall pattern. Radar looks like the precip is over, and I am fine with that. I did not want a bunch of freezing rain. It would be great if the rain stays away tonight. Edit to add that my parents in northern Calvert (4 miles south of Dunkirk) report only about an inch with light sleet falling. That's why I am N/W of the city! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us north of Baltimore weren’t going to change over for a while yet so the dryslot killed a few hours of snow/sleet potential up here. If I was down there I would be thrilled with a dryslot about now. So it’s a matter of perspective based on location. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arlwx Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 It's finally gotten to 32 and IP at DCA. It's beating down my accumulations. I want R*** to wash away the other stuff so I don't have to play with it tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poolz1 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 5.1" snow is the final....on .59" liquid. Not quite 10:1....most likely 7-8:1 with lighter rates and 10-12:1 during the big bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
