Eskimo Joe Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 GFS scores another win. It seems to out perform the Euro and UKMET with these northern stream systems. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2O Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Woke up to a fresh coating. 2.75”. Could call it 3” but it wasn’t evenly 3”. So I’ll go low a little. Snow on snow is the best and any bare spots are covered up now. I’m so happy some of y’all got a good snow from this!! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 If this system was just a bit more organize and juiced, some folks would've probably hit double digits. No worries though, we went from 60s this past Sunday to two snow events. Not too shabby. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 4" seems about right might be a little more. The bush was clear after the melt yesterday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleVillageWx Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 27/20 on the south side of Frederick. Measuring a consistent 5-6" so given the complete shutout earlier in the week, 5.5" will stand as the highly unofficial storm and seasonal total here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osfan24 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Eyeballing between 4 and 5, though half of that stuck on the road. I think @WxUSAFsaid he had 4.5 so 4-5 checks out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diatae Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Measuring 1.8" in La Plata. A nice fluffy pack refresh before the melt begins again. 15.8" on the season so far. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 2.8” new on 0.20” precip in Falls Church, so good ratios. I’ll push back on some of the model commentary. At least around here, the GFS had way too much precipitation. The HRRR was more realistic except for a few runs last night that went too dry. The NAM and Euro were the best on QPF in the DC area. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It bounces around with adjustments every run and to be frank, it kinda sucked near the metro areas last night. Many of us that got 3-4” were getting 1-2 based on the HRRR. Expand Yea the HRRR and RAP were too dry across the board. When that early band was putting down 1"/hr rates along I-81 the RAP still had no snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Slightly over-performed in my part of Columbia with about 4.5" Temp has fallen a bit from 27 at dawn ..... to 25 at 7:45am. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jparrott Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Maybe 2" of weightless powder and a beautiful sunrise in the Subdivision Mecca part of Bristow. What took 90 minutes to shovel on Monday took about 10 to shovel today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Another factor in the model discussion is the ratios. This was a very high ratio storm around here for us. None of the models really do that well, even using Kuchera. DCA/IAD/BWI were all under .25” of precip. The GFS was by far the worst model in this regard. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
