The Dude Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Another 1.25" since last night. Up to 5" for the storm here. Perfect sledding snow for the kids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imbris Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Woke up to a pleasant surprise in Silver Spring. 5.5" and counting, but probably more like 6 due to compacting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Just measured over 3" of new snow. This storm easily gets a B+ in my books - longevity, winter scene, cold temps (i.e. no plain rain), and a snowpack with layers of ice to help keep it around hopefully. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I had told my friends locally that I thought 4-8" was a good call with 4" being the absolute minimum for my immediate area around Colesville, MD. I think I'll end up being right....but it didn't go down at all like I would have expected it to despite our Miller B climo. That WAA thump REALLY underperformed for my back yard (well my parent's). But this continuous bombardment of light to moderate snow is likely going to get me past the 6 inch mark. Let's hope this is an appetizer for the next part of the pattern!

colonelaureliano1 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Haven't gone up since 3.5 from Sunday, BWI was just not the spot for this one. Trace between Monday and today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely going to be in a local minimum once this is all mapped out. Still enough to go sled with the kiddos though. We've definitely had a little bad luck. Still have very slowly tacked up 6"+. I called 8-12" for us on Saturday and 6" was my bar for acceptable. So we got there, even if it was a struggle. What's for sure is that my Jebwalk timing has been terrible. Each time it's started snowing well and I've gotten outside for a walk, it's tapered off quickly lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be fun if this was the 2021 version of the late January snowfall in 2010 - the long range and storm term thread should be rocking in the coming days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't looked beyond today much yet, but seems like we're probably going to be busy for a couple weeks at least. Much of our snow often comes in bunches and relatively short periods, so it wouldn't be crazy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AACOUNTYMD Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Still snowing in Crownsville. . . about three inches to start, then ice, now maybe two more. . not entirely sure what we did to deserve this, but, whatever it was, I would gladly do it again!

WxUSAF Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 @DCTeacherman...I have been looking at SPC mesoanalyis to see what might have caused this snow band. Best I can see, the 700mb low seemed to extend south and/or reform a bit over the southern tip of the Delmarva. Lift is usually maximized on the N/NW fringe of the 700mb low, which yesterday was over northern NJ/NYC/NE PA. Then there was also wind and moisture convergence around 850mb. Here's 700mb: I can't post the -2hr (2 hours ago) map it seems..., but here's the link to the 850mb plot and just click the -4 or -2 button at the top right (time sensitive obviously): https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/new/viewsector.php?sector=17# 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Dried up. It was like five minutes and then turned off. 4:25 pm - 4:30 pm rocked though. I didn't really harp on it because didn't want to take away from those who were enjoying a hit.

Just an additional coating during Monday afternoon, the heavier bursts didn't last long enough to have much impact. Then added an extra inch last night. So 4.5 in the end. I'll take it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been lurking this board and the old one for 11 years now and man this was a tough one to take lol. I'm glad people did well though, can't complain its white outside and I'm working from home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grothar of Herndon Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Still snowing here in Herndon. We have been in a good place for a number of these bands. Total for the storm is closing in on 6" 30/27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayyy Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 What a weird, weird storm. However, 3 straight days of cold and wintry weather is stellar in my book. Looks incredible up here in the woods. Couple notes: My brother in west Ellicott city said he woke up 2” of the white stuff, super fluff. Still snow showers out that way This makes 2 double digit snowfalls in Carroll county by February 2nd in a Nina winter - ain’t too shabby. I know some folks didn’t cash in this time, but Sunday and beyond look primes for storm chances with region wide rippage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
