rjvanals Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 2.3” final total here at 400ft in Potomac; had 1 awesome hour w ~1.5”/hr rates from 1-2 am that gave most of the accumulation so can’t really complain as that hour brought me back to my Syracuse days 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Measured 3” exactly on the snowboard. Based on the radar loop, that’s not bad. Unfortunately this event gave us a half rug pull at the final hour. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris78 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 2.25" A little disappointing with how things looked just 24 hours ago. Snowing lightly from that band dropping out of PA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 0.1" and it's already over and melting. Roads and sidewalks never caved. I was forecast 1-3" by LWX... I'm convinced it simply cannot snow in SOMD anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northof78 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 N/C NJ same band with 10 -13” highest reports, very thin however… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Pretty sure the ICON nailed that death band across PA. Euro had it to some extent the last couple runs, and it had the low qpf for my area correct. GFS was pretty awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldie 22 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Went to bed around 11 woke up at 2 looked out the window then went back to bed. It snowed...not as much as I wanted...darn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Random Chaos Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Dusting here. Mist of the ground is bare but some locations have snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTy Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Well that storm sucked. My ruler only goes down to 1/16" gradients so I can't measure the total here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardNole Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I drove to near Reading, PA yesterday to get our new puppy and there were spots along the turnpike east of Harrisburg that had 5-6" old snow on the ground. Man! Eyeballing about 2" near Germantown. Trees are beautiful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I’ll call it a quarter inch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terpeast Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Final depth measurement 1.5”, even though quite a bit has melted since it stopped snowing. Might have gotten 2” of total snowfall, but I went to bed after my first measurement. So, 1.5” goes into my log. Still a beautiful wintry scene, I’ll make a coffee and enjoy it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmagnet Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Major disappointment in western Fairfax. I think we got the snow hole. Less than 1”. Oh well. It was a fun week of tracking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukeblue219 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I don't know how much fell, but there's 1/2” remaining on the deck here (Silver Spring inside Beltway). Everything looks more wet than snowy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paxpatriot Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 This may have been the worst two week period ever for modern weather models. Not only did our monster long range completely disappear, they’ve now blown two short range storms this week (albeit, one of those benefited us). Tough to trust them at all anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imgoinhungry Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Which model did the best? Pretty big bust… id say less than an inch in Frederick. But that is just eyeballing it from the window. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
