Blizzard of 93 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 My final tally in Marysville after several backyard measurements in protected areas was 5.3 inches of snow. Great Warning level event here! Still occasional light snow here now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted March 12, 2022 Author Share Posted March 12, 2022 The HRRR keeps the LSV below freezing all day tomorrow. Will take the over on that but a cold shift in the forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Between not being around this morning to do periodic measurements and the wind wreaking havoc on things this afternoon, I’ve never had a harder time getting a final tally. With that said, after many samples around the property I’m going with an even 3.0”. I have no idea if this is accurate ha, but that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

Voyager Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Winding down here now. There's no way to get an accurate measurement. I think the wind leveled me off at two inches due to grass height. I'd venture to guess, by eyeball, that we got 3-6 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted March 12, 2022 Author Share Posted March 12, 2022 @Blizzard of 93, do not really see any sustained warmth on the ensembles. I am sure you can find us some nuggets of good (more snow?) the next few days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not think many people see another inch of snow though. I guess this is akin to the old fashioned travelers advisory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think much of that will make it into the Sus Valley though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 A couple of random thoughts: It's 22 degrees at 5pm on March 12th. That's got to be close to record territory for the date and time of day I will never post a snow map again. They were ALL way off for here.

The chance that some stay below freezing tomorrow, with sun (LSV), seems to be fairly rare as well though the record is 26. A truly MJS level factoid, it only reached 19 for a high on March 17, 1900. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount Joy Snowman Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I can confirm that, between the drifting and refreeze, it is indeed getting treacherous out there. Had to run and get my pregnant wife a very specific dinner haha, and yeah it’s getting iffy real quick. This in an area that wasn’t even hit particularly hard. Stay safe everyone.

I suspect some people over here will be getting in trouble both with running into drifts and sliding tonight. My driveway has a 6" drive over it in one small area. Crazy.

Yea, both the roads and just the real feel. I moved back here in 2018 and this is a top 5 evening as far as brutal weather for the last 4 winters. It is 17 degrees with frequent snow falling and blowing from winds gusting to near 40 and sustained 25-30. Wind Chill is ~ -2 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
