SnowenOutThere Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Did stay up from 2:30am till 6am and was a little worried this may happen for parts of Nova as the bands always seemed to die coming off the mountains before blossoming again east of DC. Oh well, we still got snow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Good morning all! About 4.5" at 7AM here in the Bethesda, MD area. Took some photos, will try to post some later when I have a chance (and hope to get more later on today as well)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
09-10 analogy Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Legit rates back again. How long it will sustain, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midatlanticweather Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Disappointing in Purcellville. About 3.3 inches thus far.. some spurts of heavier and then very light snow... been kind of depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how long they last nor how much snow I already have, pingers suck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Still moderate snow with decent flake size in Baltimore. BWI reported 3.8 inches as of 7 a.m. and I would say it's snowing at about an inch an hour, maybe a touch less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curlyq Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 On the lighter side here in Frederick, MD. Guess you have to go South to get snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldie 22 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Definitely will need the backside to get me to the low end of the forecast...not disappointed but the forecast felt like a higher confidence. Mother nature can be a fickle beast i suppse 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 It’s really interesting how low level WAA is driving this. You can see that blob near in south of DC. I think you’re starting to see some of the bands congeal a bit in nrn MD as fronto moves in. But that stuff near and S of DC is all 925-800 or so driven. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there will be some reorganization and consolidation. Don’t give up man! Agreed. 8" was my goal, so I only need 3" more to get there. Just want some decent rates to come back so I can feel a little more confident that it'll happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2O Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 measured 5" with mix of snow/sleet 26.2/24 Don't care about mixing or anything. I'm happier than a pig in shit. My low end call can verify and if i get 8 from the stuff later its all bonus snow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottishWarrior Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Stayed away from fingers for the most part. Mostly snow. Getting heavier now. I'd say 5-6 has fallen. La Plata 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowdude Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 6.5” in Stafford so far. Briefly switched to sleet around 5-6am, back to snow now. 29/27 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vastateofmind Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 5.5", 27/21. Was about a 75%/25% pinger-to-pixie dust mix when I went out to clean off the wx station at the top of the hour, but turning back to all SN as rates pick up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Gosh it’s beautiful outside. I moved to takoma park in 2017 and this is the first cold snowstorm we’ve had here. Pretty much all the others I’ve barely had to shovel because the concrete basically melted on its own. This is great. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paleocene Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Brief lull at about 715/730am near downtown silver spring just north of DC. Now back to mod/heavy snow. Eyeballing we're at 4"+ but will go measure and shovel soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
