Anyway, here's an update from the wunderground station near my old house in Olney: light snow, 27. There can some pretty awesome midwestern blizzards out your way though. Huge wind driven events if you catch the right one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayyy Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 My son up at mount Saint Mary’s is reporting SN+ - Nice band overhead WNW of Frederick it appears. We’ve been steadily accumulating here in union bridge: totaling about 4” from the naked eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps 10 am 12z is before 7am though. I’m just saying the GFs has good snow from Baltimore NE before 7am. That’s what I’m not sure I buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.salt Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 3 inches in Millers...I remember a few days back many were giving PSU a hard time about models showing more accumulation in DC area as opposed to up here near PA border...goes to show you...trust climo over models.

After this is all over, it seems that forecast will verify. Granted it will take 48 hours of sporadic light snow to get there, but I wonder why there is so much gloom in this forum. The heavier snow was always going to be further NE. At least it wasn't a complete whiff like 12/30/2000 or 12/26/2010 or countless others. 48 hours of mainly light snow just isn’t that exciting. Sure it’s better than nothing. But we live on here for rippage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out a more zoomed out radar. Hi-Def radar app is legit on iOS It’s all converging and filling in. I just hope it’s soon enough to keep me in it. Off and on here right now.

CAPE Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Just now, WxUSAF said: 3” of sand, I mean snow, has finally accumulated after 10 hours. Had some decent fluff at times here but quite variable. Just shoveled the deck, walkway, and cleaned off the car. Very fine snow still falling but adding nothing. Sure feels like this is over for part 1. Probably some sleet and rain overnight into tomorrow. We will see what happens beyond that. Right at 3" here as well.

AACOUNTYMD Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 radar suggests that precip is coming up more from the South than from the Southwest, as it had been all day here in AA County. I am sure that someone will rain on my parade (maybe literally) but to my novice eyes, I think this is a good thing? We have never really dry slotted here. . . though the rates have been low. . .still, almost to 4 inches here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the naked eye, it does appear that precip is taking a NNE trajectory instead of E or ENE, which is a decent sign. It’s going to be real close. Can probably draw a line straight down the middle of Maryland and everyone to the East has a shot at serious coastal banding if it all comes together properly.

seawolf14 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Just took a JebWalk with the fam around the neighborhood. Snow was kicking good. Once we got to the bay the wind was ripping from the NE and we started getting sleet. Walked home and seems to have switched to liquid. Weather station showing 31° now so maybe some ZR?Shot looking out to Eastern Bay towards St. Michaels:. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Right around 3" total to this point. As @WxUSAF said earlier, it's almost like sand! I posted a couple photos in the banter thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEATHER53 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Just had a quick 1.3 temp drop and unless that’s from sunset then what attributable to? pretty much 31-32 all day but snow was more like a 28/29 drier consistency do it must still be cold up top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
