Whaddya mean more??
1:40 PM 1/6 -Banding in central and northeastern MD is producing a new round of heavy snow, while forecasters are watching a large pulse of energy developing ahead of the Arctic front.
If you thought the shoveling was done, Mother Nature just uploaded a new "surprise snow" app that does not have "clearing by 1 PM" as a part of it's standard features.
Still snowing where you are? Here's the timing we think may play out the next 6 hours.
- 1 PM to 3 PM - areas under banding may get another 1/2 to 1".
- 3 PM to 6 PM - roads begin to refreeze as the sun sets. Meanwhile, the pre-Arctic front system will cross into the southern Blue Ridge and expand eastward. Additional waves of light to moderate snow may precede this pulse, bringing unwelcome light accumulation to the I-95 corridor during and after the PM commute.
- 6 PM to 9 PM - If the pulse of energy ahead of the Arctic front survives its cross of the Blue Ridge, pockets of snow will continue to pass over northern & central Virginia, central and southern MD into the evening. After 9 PM the full brunt of Arctic air reaches the East coast, with lows dropping to near 10 F for many locations.

My amatuer nowcasting sees that one to the west impacting more around Charlottesville to the tidewater area of VA, but hey, I'd love to be wrong. :)

This has been an interesting storm. It seems to keep coming at us in pieces and certainly could be deemed an "overproducer".
I did get out to pick up some Italian bread for tonight's pasta dinner and my husband even grabbed a quick haircut. The roads have been cleared but with freezing and more snow on its way I see a 2 hour late opening on the horizon for tomorrow.
Where's my like button BioPat?
yeah what amy said
Tomorrow morning's gonna suck...temps in the low teens...keeping an eye on next mid week...
The models were pretty good for today in the short range. 2 to 4 verified as expected. Problem is it was colder than we are used to with this moderate events with the worst possible timing. What a nightmare on the roads. I stayed off of them. Was not worth 5 hour traffic jams like the one on I 83.
Anything interesting on the horizon?
