Still time to change I suppose but this would be another disappointment really. Man, it’s completely different up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osfan24 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 It's not a disaster by any means, but, at least for my backyard (yours may be different as I know places farther west have snowy roads), this has not lived up to what models depicted. I never had 2 inch rates or anything close to it, and I never had significant wind or anything really close to blizzard conditions, or conditions rapidly deteriorating on roads. It's just been disappointing, which has matched basically every event this winter. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notvirga! Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Probably my favorite snow this year in owing mills. Great rates and tons of wind and crashing temps. Just wish I wasn’t working today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WWA was the correct call You need to move from eastern to western Loudoun! Great storm out here. Mod. to heavy snow since 6:00am. Probably in excess of 3", but hard to tell because it is so wind blown. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I just make up fake reports? He's asking what it's doing at home. Maybe I should tell him it's a blizzard and he has a foot on the ground. I'm sure that would make him happy when he finally returned home to see the ground truth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was poking a little fun at your sun comment. Clouds that produce snow are pretty thin - and the sun is up - and it's March. It's going to be light unless you've got a nice thick cumulonimbus overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
