Warm air advection snow is ending and we're about to transition to more cellular snow until the upper energy passes through this afternoon. I remain cautiously optimistic about the back end potential giving a fresh 1" - 3". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T. August Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 This is strictly imby, but I can’t recall a time when the backend stuff worked out in the last 10 years. Maybe Feb 2014? I think there was an inch or 2 from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldie 22 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I have work stuff until 1pm so i can't shovel until then. The plows have been coming through my neighborhood several times now and there is a nice wall at the end of my driveway.

dailylurker Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I've officially slant sticked 8" lol. 8" in the grass and 7.60 on the board. That last burst gave me over a half inch in about 20 minutes. Made the surface all bumpy from the big flakes. It's getting darker again and looks like it's going to puke again. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Heavy snow now with large fluffy dendrites under these yellow radar returns. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp gradients with this storm. I'm only about 20 miles, basically due west, of you. And we're at 6" max right now, though in a heavy band. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warm Nose Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I think I'm mostly done here in extreme western Loudoun. Measured 5", under of course the 8-12 that was proj'd but that's normal these days. I doubt we'll get a lot from the coastal but this is not a jackpot for us NW of the cities. Still fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These yellow bands that roll through are some real dumpers. The difference between max totals and lower end depends on getting under the yellow. I've been on a heater and keep lining them up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
