The dispensary in silver spring was packed when I drove by today. 4,000 mg of edibles is def necessary for a snowstorm lolz

I’m not sure if you’re responding to me or the general vibe. But I agree with you.

2.5 inches of sleet on top of 4.5 inches of snow would be wild. The NAM has been right, but it’s also fell on its face in embarrassing fashion close up to events as well so of course consider it but I wouldn’t assume 100 percent it is correct. Just have to keep it in mind as a possibility.

At this point u gotta just be in chips fall mode, if you get a ton of sleet that just happens sometimes. Always good to get to that zen whatever happens happens mode at around 24 hours. The atmosphere was always going to do what it was going to do and our computer simulations aren’t perfect yet. good luck to all

I’ve been burned by this in the past. Never can completely toss it when it’s the most aggressive changeover. It has schooled the globals on this before.

I hate it but usually just take the guidance that blasts the mix line fastest and furthest north is usually right.

Freezing rain would be a real problem here given the low temps and high qpf.

OH wow a perfect blizzard lol......that would be nice.

Crazy Uncle looks like it smoked the good stuff at 12z. The ptype shows snow way down SW of DC at 18z. Way different look. Would be much snowier.

CMC looks nice and thumpy. 8 inches for DC and a foot for the favored spots NW.

When does the GFS fold like a cheap suit and show 4 inches for dc? 18z or 0z?

06z run, it's kinda the boom scenario model for us right now. Big dumping of heavy snow before the transition.

RGEM is a pummeling, it's 1.4 QPF by 18z for DC with 0.7 falling in the 3 hour period 15z-18z. If we can get that kinda death band right before the change we could def get double digits in the metros.

Yeah I think it’s just the ptype algorithm from the vendor, no meteorologists are forecasting much IP for dc.

People here in dc are so confused, my co worker INSISTS Richmond is getting two feet. People here think we’re getting 12-18 inches in dc.
