Last year I had to scrape frost off my car a grand total of twice. yeah i mean last year we basically didn't have winter. this year at least there is some semblance of it. although it looks like DC proper will go another year where it fails to drop below 20F.

Deck Pic Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 San Antonio where it's 12 degrees 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Now 12 degrees with moderate to heavy snow. Winds really blowing snow off the roofs and all over the ground. Drifts are forming. This is only 2-3 inches of snow, but this is a LOT for this part of the US. I apologize for the poor quality of this video, but this is my very first ever on youtube. You guys said I better have pics, or it never happened. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 11 degrees, pouring snow, wind is just blowing all those aggregates past the lights, and we have almost 4 inches! We have now received over 800 percent of normal seasonal snowfall here! NWS here mentioned some places might get over 6 inches. I might just have to stay up all night to find out lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Absolutely POURING BIG flakes, wind is just blowing big snowflakes all over in the porch lights! Its 10 degrees with approximate -11 to -15 wind chills. Mets, please correct me if that is overstated. ITS FRACKIN COLD out there! I went out to get a snow depth reading only 20-30 min ago ----- MY FOOTPRINTS ARE TOTALLY OBLITERATED! Ground landmarks are disappearing lol. That snow is on the ATTACK! I think I just may be getting totally shellacked. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Snow is slowing down a little now, 9 degrees, winds are all over the place, measuring snow is going to be a challenge. Might have to take about 100 readings then average them lol. Looks like about 6 inches easy, may be 7. Will look over the trained spotter reports later, refine and tweak my findings. Snow still coming down, not quite as crazy hard. Got a BIG 8 inch drift on the deck. Might have to get a Deck Pic or two later. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 The radar over Louisiana ruined my morning. Heavy snow and cold temps must be nice. Been many years since I've seen that here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is colder in Houston right now than it has been at DCA for years. This is amazing stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK city had moderate snow and a temp of 1. Can't remember that ever happening in DC. Maybe back in like 94 between ice storms I remember a few inches with temps near 0.

IUsedToHateCold Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 It’s interesting how these crazy cold shots come down so far south in the middle of the country. I would think that the Gulf of Mexico would help moderate temps in places like Houston, but apparently not or not always? I read recently that in 1895 there was snow as far south as Tampico, MX. Seems like the Atlantic (or maybe our longitude) is our worst enemy here in the mid Atlantic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one will believe this but I was down in my old PG county stomping grounds on Friday walking the old neighborhood, and when I went to check out the old duck pond, peepers were chirping from the heavy cover. It was cold but they didn’t seem to mind at all. Spring will be here before we know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scraff Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 9 hours ago, ovechkin said: VV was never intended to start 11 games in a row. The D is terrible and they can’t win a face off. @Deer Whisperer @nj2va @nw baltimore wx Orlov needs to be traded, but the D in general is way too soft. I do like Samsonov. Praying he gets the nod Tuesday. Agree they couldn’t win a face off, but when you play lazy and with no energy or passion (even our stars), you won’t win anything. And don’t get me started on Kuzy. He might as well be named Semin. Maybe package him and Orlov? I dunno. I’m just frustrated with this team right now. I’ll just hope we can have a better showing tomorrow.

cigrgd Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Mike Seidel was on I-20 in Monroe, LA and compared it to the NY State Thruway in the lake effect belt. 100 yard visibility in heavy snow. I’ve never seen anything like that in my life. This storm is amazing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
