midatlanticweather Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 After the morning boom we have been pretty much pixies out here. A few heavier bursts but I am only a bit over 3 for the event. These two events were about the same amount making my total for the year about 6.2 inches. Several have done better than me. We will see if we pick up anymore in snowshowers or squalls. The heavier stuff was just north and east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think ever since you moved to Westminster, the Parrs Ridge jackpot zone is kinda on hold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSG Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 What is going on with this storm?? Look at the returns from Richmond to Fredericksburg back over to Albemarle right now vs what the HRRR or 3k NAM are showing 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Random Chaos Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Haven’t had a lot of accumulation here, but it sure is pretty! I was above freezing until after dawn, sitting at 30.7F now. Photo of my weather station in SN: 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 There's definitely some exposed road where the heaviest salt was now that rates are lighter and the sun is up higher. Unless I get under another band or it darkens a bit - the non snow covered surfaces aren't going to get stickage very well now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 I'm feeling like I'm in a good spot for the remainder of the storm. I'm going to weenie my way to over 6" when that band sets up over me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terpeast Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Looks like the heavy band shunted to the south, which is fine. Share the load! still snowing good. Small flakes. Likely hit 5” but compaction might keep my new depth under that. Still that’s on top of the 3-4 inches from earlier this week. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T. August Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 3.3” at 12:30 in Havre de Grace. Really wanted to hit 4-5”, perhaps still possible but unlikely unless the coastal gets some stuff blossoming back here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EHoffman Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Rates have definitely picked up and flake size is better in the last 15 minutes or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deer Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Lighter green returns producing nice sized flakes in Lake Ridge. ~2.25" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Think at this point we’d need a band to accumulate in Arlington/DC. Small pixie flakes and meh rates + sunshine won’t overcome the temps. If that was it, my current best guess is 3.5”. I’ll see what the spotters say. Great event thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ovechkin Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Would love to somehow extend this into the evening. The difficulty to accumulate especially on paved surfaces in mid-day is real. Even with cold ground and decent rates. But certainly can't complain. Another overperformer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wxtrix Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 about 3” of new snow. visibility down to 1/4th mile but with tiny flakes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accumulation has been hard to come by here as well for the last 2 hours or so, even with decent returns. Would need to be in the yellows me thinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Still snow building in to my west up here at the M/D line. Bodes well for mid aftn time frame for folks east when sun angle starts caving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wetbulbs88 Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Everyone should be happy here considering what was depicted two days ago. im guessing about 3.5-4.5” here in AdMo. Light snow not doing much accumulation. But even if we don’t get under another band I’m happy as a clam with this one. The puppy is in heaven!

Getting some fatties right now but would need this to keep going to offset compaction. Its nice to see it snow so I'm happy as hell. 2.5" already beat what i expected out of this storm There's an easy fix for that - swipe and measure every hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As always we really require some intense daytime rates to get meaningful accumulation around here during the day. Pretty standard stuff for DC proper at least. This storm definitely exceeded my expectations though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
