ers-wxman1 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Large flakes in Ashburn. Highest rate so far. Mixing line encroaching from the south. Already switched to sleet in Herndon per WFO. Hoping to hold on in the Ashburn/Leesburg area through 20z to verify warning. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like it floods the area with warm air around 5-6 pm, but that's also about the same time the low does a weird jump north that I'm not sure is correct.

Yea it's going to be interesting to see if that does make that hard jump, if it hugs the coastline then a lot of people win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Areas north and west of Baltimore get a pretty nice band of snow tonight between 11-3am on the euro. It’s been there and getting more pronounced for several runs. Might be real. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleocene Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Sleet + snow mix in Silver Spring since about 1pm. Still holding at 29 degrees according to local weatherbug station, though. Traffic maps on google look atrocious speedwise if you haven't checked em yet. Edit: as i typed and submitted this, we lost the flakes. 100% sleet.

Just looking at the SPC mesoscale analysis, the low looks to be placed accurately right now. However, one thing I learned from Cranky about a way to figure out where the low is heading is to look at the kinks in the isobars. If that's accurate, this is going way east of where it is modeled. It would be much more of a northeast movement than the barely east of north modeled direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
