Re: Snow totals?
 

we are supposed to get 4 more inches tonight, and maybe 2 tomorrow...It is crazy. The snow is almost unrelenting.

The good news is, by the end of next week, we are supposed to have sustained temperatures in the upper 60's and i believe one day cracks 70

Re: Snow totals?
 

Last dumping was a foot of snow. Previous to that, about 8 inches. We had a few other smaller 1-4" snows between those.

I measured 25" deep by my driveway, which is looking more like a tunnel now. Some of that depth was from blowing but most fell right there from from the sky.

Only lost power once, was lucky.




Oh, and the President is giving a global warming speech today.

Re: Snow totals?
 

Forecasting right now another big snow event for next Friday - Saturday. There is a guy in Edinburg, VA, that runs a weather site from his house - no joke. He has equipment on the roof of his garage and is supposedly a self-trained meteorologist. His record for predicting snowfall this year is something like 12 - 1. The big 2 foot snow last week, he predicted 10 days before it happened. He is predicting another major event for next weekend, so we will see what happens...

Here is Capital Weather Gang (the Washington Post weather blog) says:
[QUOTE]In terms of snow chances, we see two in the next 10 days.
The first, in the Tuesday into Wednesday period, is probably no big deal. It’s a weak clipper-system – with limited moisture – approaching from the west. Not only is moisture likely lacking, but temperatures may only be marginally cold enough for snow – so accumulation prospects aren’t great.
The second snow chance is the one most are paying attention to… and that’s in the February 28 to March 1 time frame. The European model showed a huge snowstorm in its simulations yesterday – but backed off this idea some today, keeping the storm more to our south. The GFS model also keeps the storm to our south. [B]It’s too early to write the storm off or sound an alarm.[/B][/QUOTE]

10 days is a long time in weather forecasting. Hopefully it dissipates well before then

There is cold and then there is really cold.

Re: Snow totals?
 

Wanted to add it still FREEZING here....our nights are in single digits. Monday night was only 2 degrees, and yesterday evening the low was like 8 or 10..

They have predicted lots more snow for March, and even the early part of april is supposed to be frigid. One guy said something about snow being "up to the fence post" at Easter...I only remember one easter where there was snow on the ground but maybe others have better memories...
