Reports of Copter vs Small regional jet. Hearing the sirens of everything in the area presumably heading that way… hearing it’s a 60-80 person regional jet. Could be bad, unfortunately. Too many things in the air around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted yesterday at 03:06 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:06 AM OMG, just seeing the news about the plane crash. It was a regional jet coming from Wichita, KS. Saying prayers for the passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhotoGuy Posted yesterday at 03:08 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:08 AM Listening to the scanner. Just awful. 60 passengers + 4 crew members on the plane. Unknown how many on the helicopter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted yesterday at 04:31 AM Share Posted yesterday at 04:31 AM Can’t stop thinking of the passengers looking out at the monuments as they’re about to land as I have done each time I take off / land at Reagan, and they had no idea what was about to happen. Just awful. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted yesterday at 09:20 AM Share Posted yesterday at 09:20 AM I am absolutely shattered beyond description by the horrific enormity of the Washington Crash. It appears to be a most unfortunate accident. I am agonized by the thought of their loved ones trying to make sense of this. May God grant strength and comfort to all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate it. I can't really argue with what you are saying. Looks like the Blizzard of 2016 really shows your idea well. We got 8-12 inches in NCC. We got screwed relative to areas near us. This has been the case ever since. I think the MA area is a screw zone in general. As this year has shown, its pretty easy for Charleston SC to score, just get a REALLY cold airmass. Its really easy for Upstate NY/Vermont to score, just get a marginal airmass. But here? What do we need? Who knows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its really easy for Upstate NY/Vermont to score, just get a marginal airmass. But here? What do we need? Who knows! If you are where I think you are...your elevation is about 25-50 feet. This is actually lower than much of the Delmarva south of you. There is a really awful zone in northern DE south of the fall line to the canal linking the two bays. I've observed this area... warmth seems to come up the Chesapeake Bay and continue NE and links to the same effect coming up the DE bay that used to affect me when I lived in NJ. You live in a regional snowfall minimum. What's worse is those places well south of you on the DELMARVA probably don't get more snow than you...but they don't get less and they live geographically far from the areas that get a lot more...to their west a huge body of water divides them and they have to go far north. You are really close, only about 15-20 miles from places that get almost double your snowfall which makes it hurt even more. Trust me I've lived places like that and I know the pain...but it's not going to change, its due to geographic factors that will cause you to get less snow in most storms than places around you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That area also gets screwed because in addition to just missing on a lot of marginal events where it snows not too far NW, it often gets fringed on the sliders/coastal scrapers that usually come with really cold air in place and high quality snow. My yard isn't usually the bullseye for those but I get in on the northwest side enough to get some nice moderate events. That has happened a bunch of times since 2016 and partly explains why I have so many more warning level events(with snow on the roads!) than he has had up that way. The other advantage I have is my location is in the interior- I am not close to either bay, and also far enough north to avoid mixing/rain a fair amount of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
