nw baltimore wx Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Pavement is just wet here but nothing is melting off of the weighted trees and power lines. I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see northern tier counties close today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent coating of ice on trees and other elevated surfaces. Lowest temp was 32.4 on my station. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hstorm Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Just ticked up to 33 in Great Falls. Light glaze (with lots of small icicles) on tree branches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's the case. The county only had 5 days designated. The first week of January used up 3 alone with the two events that week.

Eskimo Joe Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Ice definitely overperformed on trees and wires up in Carroll and Baltimore counties. Several transformer fires and wires down overnight. M0.1" - M0.2" in western Carroll after midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Yeah, our outage was probably a transformer - saw some flashes before things went out. Props to how quick BGE got on it, frankly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FamouslyHot Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Some pictures I took this morning. @WxUSAF how much accumulation did you record? I can't find anything to measure with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My deck furniture is all iced over with icicles hanging off. Haven’t been outside yet to check paved surfaces. Temp is 32. Delay for what, though? Even in my shadiest, coldest spots, there was no ice accumulation on paved surfaces. If we are going to have a delay today, guess we should just start having a delay for any time it rains.

Could be more about allowing time for ice cleanup from vehicles/busses etc and I guess there were SOME power outages and potential road slickness in certain higher elevation spots of counties. I dont have an issue with the delays, now I would have if they closed (I dont even have a kid tho so its more about being a Karen for me!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are going to have a delay today, guess we should just start having a delay for any time it rains. 2 hours seems fine, though i could understand where you're coming from. imby at least, this was a non-event on paved surfaces (temps leading in clearly limited frozen impacts there). trees were glazed more than i expected, though (and it actually looks kinda cool from my balcony...i'm ready to buy a place, but glad i chose the top floor in the meantime lol). i think if there was any sleet involved here roads might have been worse off by providing an extra coating. overall, this was a pretty good example that temps leading in do matter, but on a surface by surface basis.
