33andrain Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Looking less and less likely that I'll even see enough to cover the grass here in Towson, MD. Oh well, I 'll just set here in front of the fireplace and watch the first 3 seasons of "Coach" on dvd. Very dissapointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdhokie Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I'm still trying to figure out how we got screwed on this one, all things considered classic SLP track, cold air upper air seemed to mess us up in the end still, in a week its gonna be just under 50 in BOS and just over 50 here so at least we won't have to deal with the mud once it melts CLIMO!!@!@!@!@!!!!! But for real, I've been asking the same question, what caused se virginia to SNE to get dumped on, with a "snow hole" for the DC/Balt area.

MN Transplant Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 First things that come to mind is no area of high pressure over the Canadian Maritimes, UL trough is neutral tilt instead of negative, etc... This. The main reason why I never bought into this storm. The trough was positive way too far east for my liking. Frankly, I'm impressed that it is going to end up being as close as it is.

nieciez Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 We drove up from VA to NJ yesterday instead of today to "avoid" traveling in any snow. Looks like in my backyard at home that we will just get a dusting yet here at my sister's we could end up with a foot or more. Just started to come down good in the last 20 minutes. It's amazing to look at the radar and see the western edge of the storm hugging 1-95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazzo83 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 dry air eating away at the western edge of the flurries/-sn having it this close has to be worse than a solid whiff I know how this feels. on 1/25/2000 I was literally 5 miles from heavy snow, while we got intermittent flurries (the line was I-81). Literally, you crossed the interstate and within a minute or two it was whiteout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongRanger Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 people were claiming sufficient pivot for big MA I-95 snow last night, but I didn't see it... for near term forecasts, properly gauging radar and WV loops is invaluable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steks Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Flaking in Manassas (ever so lightly) and the temp is at 28, DP 21, RH 75%, and Baro at 29.76. The next line should be "bring it on" but good sense says I will patiently enjoy those flakes I see now and whatever may follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terpeast Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 WV loop shows a slight positive tilt to the upper trough and appears to stay that way. That's not going to cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marked8 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Complete bust IMBY Manassas, Va 35 miles southwest of D.C. We just started to have flurries, but I am on the very edge of the precip and it is clear it is coming no farther west. South of here the shield is moving east, so my 2-4 inch forecast looks like it may not even materialize into a dusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhineasC Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Eh oh well, last winter was enough for two winters for me. DC-PHL was just so insane. They do better than we do, certainly, but don't expect a big difference. NNE and sometimes CNE are the best spots in a powerful La Nina. Don't be shocked to see yourself fringed later on as ORH_wxman reports blizzard obs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
