January 6-7 Storm Discussion: we’re due?

[jayyy]

My coworker just texted me and said ice pellets are falling with mangled in flakes near Columbia mall.

Come onnnn, bring on those heavier returns. Would love to see the 95 crew get in on the action for a bit.

220/50 intersection in WV south of Cumberland.

850 Frontogenesis is good for the Northern Shen Valley and the Panhandle. Where is the heavy precip?

Rates vanished again. Very very light snow. Most of what has fallen has already melted.

I want to go back inside but my daughter doesn’t want to

I gotta say she is a bigger weenie than I am

[ThePhotoGuy]

Rain with a few sleet pellets mixed in.

33/30 and picking up a bit now.

[clskinsfan]

Over to sleet here. It was fun while it lasted. 

[rjvanals]

We’ve had some flurries off and on here but needed rates and haven’t had them 

[Mrs.J]

Just drove up to pick up the kid from her morning shift. Roads are mainly just wet. And the typical race track speeding and lane changing horrible driving on 15 is normal.

Can anyone confirm if those heavier returns just SW of Martinsburg is snow or sleet. Seeing some yellow returns.

are you in Shepherdstown?

[Skywalker03]

Pretty meh in Rockville so far.  My deck has a fine layer of sleet pellets and I think I saw a few flakes mixed in a few minutes ago.

[SomeguyfromTakomaPark]

Changed over to snow in takoma park 

[WeatherShak]

are you in Shepherdstown?

Have a cabin on top of a mountain - northern tip of Sleepy Creek Wildlife Management Area/ tuscarora Trail.

Still crystal’ing in Frederick. Mostly light/steady. Contemplating a stroll before the inevitable flip.

Need some rates. Come on baby and thump me! 

Can see the sun through the clouds…missing the thump. Light drizzle/sleet/snow mix in the lull.

[umdterps29]

Sleet and freezing rain in full force in deep creek now. Definitely going to bust low on totals at this rate. Need the snow to come back 

[osfan24]

Mostly just sleet with a few flakes mixing in now and then. Untreated sidewalks and streets are definitely slick in spots. I think it is cold enough to snow for now but there is just no heavy precipitation for any more than a few minutes at a time.

It might come back. Mixing in snow again here. Gonna be one of those storms. If you can get heavy enough rates you will get snow. 

[notvirga!]

Super lame so far here. Occasional flakes but mostly light sleet and drizzle. A dusting 

[EastCoast NPZ]

Snowing now.

Hope you’re right. The heavier precip appears to be to the southwest right now working this direction. Nothing exciting about a lull during a short storm though

[MDSnowyWxTracker]

29.6/27 just north of 26. Moderate snow coming down.

[blizzardmeiser]

Snowing with a little sleet mixed in.
