Chris78 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Intensity starting to pick back up. Was in a lull for about an hour. Bigger flakes mixing back in . 31 in Smithsburg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 10 minutes ago, osfan24 said: 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. We definitely could have had something measurable at least if we could have sustained moderate rates for more than 15-20 minutes. This lull might kill those chances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 And back to all sleet. And heavy sleet, so it's no longer because of light rates. This one is toast for Stephens City. Not surprising, went exactly how I thought it would. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to be on the north or west side of that. Best vertical motion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umdterps29 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Deep Creek- Just starting to go back to like a 50/50 snow sleet combo as the heavier rates move in. Really hoping some heavier stuff can come through and bring back the pure snow 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
