87storms Posted Friday at 09:07 PM Share Posted Friday at 09:07 PM Last band was much more squall'y up here, though only about 15 minutes of peak. Whitened up the ground, though, and was starting to accumulate on roads/sidewalks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it had lasted another 15 minutes, roads were gonna get slick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except, I never wish for you, the severe t-storms that turn into tornadoes, once they cross the Potomac in warmer weather...but I certainly hope you get a taste of these crazy squalls. And if you do, please post pics! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, GOD, yes. I'm astounded that the ground is completely whitened...which I think @H2O mentioned just a few minutes ago. I absolutely did NOT expect this kind of squall this afternoon...although I think @pazzo83 mentioned within the past 24 hours that we really didn't need to relive a "commute-ageddon" type event, even on a lightly attended work day, and he was right. My wife and son said road conditions rapidly turned horrible during this squall. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife and son said road conditions rapidly turned horrible during this squall. It was so graupel like and it blew down the road to start like pebbles. But then it just went instant white. Amazing given the temps before and it had been sunny most of the day. Granted the roads melted fast after 20 min but that temp drop was super quick. Just almost flash freeze worthy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
