87storms Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 drove down to bethesda on a "lunch break" to see what all the commotion is about. pretty snowy scene in cabin john. looked like about 4-5" there. pretty much nothing north of clarksburg/sugarloaf. worth noting that roads were basically fine the entire time with some slush on the side roads.

ovechkin Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 With clouds and 29 and being early January it’s nice not to hear drip drip drip 10 minutes after the storm ends. Gorgeous day all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 1 hour ago, mattie g said: I mentioned it earlier in the thread, but my parents have been stuck on 95S just north of Fredericksburg since about 9:15 am. They left a hotel in Springfield for their place in Florida this morning and tried to get through before the heaviest snow came in, but my dad (stupidly, and very unlike him) didn't take into account that others might not do so well in the snow. Jackknifed tractor trailers all over the place are blocking exit and entrance ramps, so no one can get off the road even if they wanted to. Again...that was dumb decision (I told them to stay put until things calmed down), and I'm sure plenty of others figured they could get to where they need to go without thinking of the ripple effects single-vehicle incidents and other potential multiple-vehicle accidents.

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Gosh I’m digging today. Temp never got above 28, low January sun angle and a nice breeze have made for minimal melt and a nice winter feel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most roads near me have been plowed at least once. The most common place i saw cars getting stuck was that transition from plowed to side street where the snow was piled up. if you didn't have 4x4 you got stuck.

Fozz Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Fun little nerd fact: Exactly 20 years ago there was another southern slider that brought heavy snow to VA and southern MD, but fringed the northern areas. The difference was, that one didn’t even make it to DC. Atlanta and Raleigh ended up with more snow than DC and Baltimore for the whole winter because of that storm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My measurement from the east of town 4.25" most of that in the last 2.5 hours. Do you happen to know offhand how the west-NW end did? Short Pump, Glen Allen, Midlo?

Jan 2-3, 2002. We did very well in south-central VA (I was working at AKQ at the time). That was a clean, all snow event for all of southern VA -- a rarity! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
