NorthArlington101 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Wow, my measurement might’ve been an underestimation. I’ll have to check the final reports.Flurries. Very wintry day. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easily lost between 1 to 2 inches of accumulation. Edit: had steady, accumulating SN/SN- until 0410.

Should've stayed up! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhoady Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Yes. I was playing with two of my dogs imfy at ~2345hrs; one jumped a deer, they hit the woods for two hours, and I walked after em. Went back to the board every 50-70 mins so those measurements are up to 10min from a true hourly measurement (even tho that's not the official way to measure anyway. I just like to see hourlies when it's around SN+) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakkelWx Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 On 2/11/2021 at 3:05 PM, grhqofb5 said: So based on my analysis, and the various vectors relevant to current atmospheric conditions and trends (past, present, and future), I believe that the precipitation shield is traveling at approximately a 30 degree northeasterly angle relative to the magnetic poles (not accounting for flat map distortion or curvature of the earth). Therefore, based on the observable rates and airborne buoys engineered for data collection purposes, in addition to geometric conditions, the immediate D.C. area, including areas slightly north, south, east, and west at varying distances from a central radius, should expect somewhere in the area of 16" to 20" inches. Of rain. Something went wrong. I only received about a flurry and a half of snow instead of the 20 inches of rain like was promised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catoctin wx Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Going with 4.3” total for the two days based on the amount added by Thursday mornings snow shower that moved though. I just emptied my CoCoRaHS, which I take much more seriously than I do my backyard snow measurements, and had 0.42” liquid equivalent. Almost an exact 10:1 ratio. It’s nice when things work out .
