H2O Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 As usual got crap for marginal events. Whatever. Snow fell and for a couple hours it looked nice. Wish it was more. Just can’t get breaks. Ever. congrats CAPE. At least it snowed well there 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCAsnowhole Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Snow quickly disappearing in McLean but sure was beautiful earlier in the day while it was falling. Temps above freezing + tree cover resulted in some stark borders between a winter wonderland and average wet forest! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got in on the good banding and that was the difference in overcoming the mild surface today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAOS Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 I just went out and measured... currently have 0" of snow. Awesome. This place sucks... I have not had decent snowfall for 5 years now. Though I am happy others have been able to cash in. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePhotoGuy Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 What a bad snow “storm” in Annapolis. Maybe a half inch or so just on the grass. All gone already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T. August Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 I don’t know if anyone is familiar with Rt 155 in Harford county... but the cutoff was dastardly. On my way home from Darlington, you could see it go from 4, to 3, to 2. 2” to 0” could be witnessed from a stationary viewpoint. I’ve never seen it so severe. 0” at home lmfao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ovechkin Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 At the end of the day the immediate metros simply don’t do well anymore in marginal setups. Cold has simply been lacking 2 years running now. DCA hasn’t been below 24 this year and didn’t get below 22 last year. Highs under 40 let alone freezing are few and far between. Set ups, storm tracks have not been the issue. It’s really been all about temperatures. Advertised cold doesn’t materialize as projected, we blow past high temperature projections and bust high in lows amost nightly. Get some legit cold with these tracks and it would be a different story. Then we can talk mid levels, rates, etc... until then we sre simply doo damn toasty. End of story. Will see what happens later this week.... maybe a little bit of actual cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dallen7908 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 I should take the spotters course. No reports from P.G. county for this storm and at least one other this winter. Of course, if I take the course they'll probably tell me not to bother reporting amounts from a typical P.G. storm, i.e., 0.1 or 0.3". https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=LWX&product=PNS&format=CI&version=1&glossary=0&highlight=off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of family back in that area. (Winchester area my home for 47 years) My sisters ( just south of front royal around 1500" ) said she had almost 7" on the ground at her house today??? Below average snow year here in the lower elevations of OR but the forecast changed dramatically in the past 48 hours. We were just to get glancing blow from the artic air and now they are forecasting it building back west. That's when we get the best lower elevation snows here. Thursday through next Sunday single digit lows & mid teen highs with snow around everyday. If it happens?? would be the coldest snowiest part of the winter here. Cheers from OR.

wolfpackwxDC Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Not that it matters or is in any way official, but between the rain at the start (0.2 inches) and all the snow that gathered in the rain gauge and then melted (0.60 inches), we got a total of 0.80 inches liquid out of this storm in Arlington. Fairly in line with forecasts if I recall correctly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTy Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 What a crap storm. And to be clear, this wasn't a "storm". I've seen dandruff pile up more than this snow.
