I think when I was younger 4 inches was enough for a winter storm warning at least inside the Beltway, but maybe I am not remembering correctly. You are correct. They upped it to 5" a while back.

I think the conflating of the two is because of a lot of our early associations with the word "blizzard". You hear that mentioned around and you immediately think like Blizzard of 96' or 79'. Thus, you think deep snow goes with "blizzard"! That's why a 3-inch blizzard, while true via scientific definition, doesn't naturally jive with that association...it's weird!!

CAPE Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Been busy with work and haven't really tracked the latest trends. Not sure how I feel about the NAMs or even the Euro over this way. Gut still says this is mostly rain for my yard with maybe a quick shot of snow at the end and maybe a coating. Looking pretty good now for places along and esp NW of I-95. Beautiful out right now. Heading out to put some fertilizer on the grass so the rain can soak it in. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 This is looking exciting and could be like a miniature version of the 2011 "Hoffman Storm" with rain changing to wind-blown heavy snow. Should be fun. Oh and how about sunny and 60s from Tuesday onward next week? Gimme some of that! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George BM Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 from LWX afternoon disco: The combination of moderate to heavy snowfall and very high winds could produce localized near blizzard conditions tomorrow morning, making conditions very hazardous for travel. A Blizzard Warning was considered, but confidence wasn`t high enough in the quarter mile visibility requirement being met for three hours straight. Brief snowfall rates of 1-2 inches per hour can`t be ruled out for within the aforementioned intense frontogenetic snowfall band tomorrow morning. The greatest opportunity for this to occur in the metro areas would be between 8 and 11 AM. Steady snow will gradually wind down from west to east during the early to middle portions of tomorrow afternoon. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
