BlizzardNole Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Closing in on 2" in northern MontCo with the last bit ready to come through. A nice little snow given how bleak things looked for a while earlier today! Balt area looking good on radar -- hopefully they can pull 4" or more in some of those areas. We've been a bit grinched with these storms so far this winter, but with the blocky pattern you have to think we'll get a shot at a nice one at some point this winter, Nina or not.

real Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Looking at the radar and reading reports of heavy rain along parts of the Jersey shore, I really don't see how the front end of the storm doesn't fall as sleet or snow rain on Long Island. They will still get more than their fair share later tonight, but seems the L is a bit farther west than had progged and is drawing in more warm air.

frostbite_falls Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 2.4" in Frostbite Falls (a.k.a. Northcentral Harford Co, MD) so far--and finally looking like it means it--SN+, at least by this storm's standards. Hope this pace keeps up for what remains, might beat my hopeful expectation of 3" by a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Another smallish band that wasn't on the radar 15 minutes ago, appears to have formed just west of DC and is getting ready to move in. http://www.wunderground.com/radar/radblast.asp?zoommode=zoom&num=1&delay=15&scale=0.750&noclutter=0&ID=LWX&type=N0R&lat=0&lon=0&label=you&showstorms=0&map.x=430&map.y=268¢erx=381¢ery=252&lightning=0&smooth0&showlabels=1&rainsnow=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPete Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Around 3" in York, PA and still snowing pretty hard. Looks like we should be seeing snow until about midnight. Hopefully we can pick up another inch or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 It sure looks mighty purdy out there. Got some decent pictures that I'll post later after I resize them. Probably just under an inch now. Given that the ratios aren't all that great I'd say we are hitting about what the models had for us (.2-.4 QPF). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TradeWinds Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Frederick also has a lower elevation compared to nearby areas, but I'm not so sure if FrederickWX lives in that valley. Frederick sits on the valley floor. I'm one of the higher spots just outside of town at 300 feet. That's quite low for the NW burbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaltimoreWxGuy Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Why couldnt we get this snow for a solid 8 hours..If that happened we'd have 6-10..oh well thats weenie talk, Ill take my 3-4 inches and like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Except for 95% of the state of VA that got nothing more than a dusting at most. yea... things certainly did shift north so that the back edge that was supposed to be down near CHO ended up right around DC. Things were saved somewhat up here by the upper level energy. The primary held on way too long and is why were looking at a 1-3/2-4 type event rather then 6-10. Oh well... next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Looks like 1-1.5" in Odenton so far with a heavier band about to come through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Ian- We downgraded in PM Update (since all the model QPFs dropped) to a dusting SW to 2" NE - with maybe 2-3" around Baltimore -- which was roughly equivalent to our original range at the low end. So I think we did ok. I gotta admit I was sweating it for a while. hey jason, thx for the info. i was referring to the panic here by the way! you are usually pretty dead on in your snow thoughts.
