It's like the climo has shifted or something so that we just don't do well enough in these west-east slider like systems...it's like it always favored south of me, and I don't ever remember another time where even I, not being as far north as you, got fringed this much. Ordinarily it's DC with temp/mixing issues...but since 2019 they haven't had that with these types of sytems. I will never trust a system like this again unless it shows mixing south of me. Heavy rates just don't get up here that way lately...smh The timeframes people are talking about are so small in the overall scale of things that you can't put it down to climate shifting. Sometimes places have shit luck for a period or there's some sort of cycle we're going through. No way to know for sure. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in my area, the November storm was rain/snow mix 3 miles from me, 1" a couple streets down, but 2.5" up here at 900ft. I’ve lucked out in the last 3 big ones. I think I jacked 2019. But overall I’m at 50% of climo over the 2016-17 to 2023-24 period. It all evens out. But when you get fringed I know it’s painful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not terrible at face value, nice scene of snow falling and over 3" OTG here. Not 6+ but maybe I grab 1-3" this afternoon/evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s interesting, I’ve been lulled basically since 930. I don’t see anything falling now.

aldie 22 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Healthy looking blob out towards Winchester, i look to be on the southern end of it but Leesburg and Ashburn could get some niceness from it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayyy Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 5.5” totalIn a lull but looking like we’ll get some of that batch currently impacting clskinsfan’s area. Maybe another 1-2” from the ULL later on if we’re lucky. If we can manage 7-8” here I’d consider that a win. Looking more like 3” at my house in UB per the wife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCA spotted 4.7 at 7am, this would give it 8 inches even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 All of "northern MD" is mountainous. A mini Switzerland. "Northern MD" extends eastward to just past 1-83 beyond which you are in some other state.

Agree. i mean Richmond just broke a snow drought of 1 plus inch snowfall that lasted over 1000 days yesterday. No one up here can come close to claiming anything like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konksw Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Just under 6 inches in Columbia Heights. If we can snag another half inch before the first event ends 2-3 would get us right around 8 or 9+ inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
