Historic actually. They will eclipse or come very close to some 24hr monthly records, as well as breaking some multi-day snowfall accumulations across portions of WI.

This was a solid thaw. Noteworthy. We lost 20” of snowpack at home, and 21” at the base of the mountain. 42” to 21” this week.

Truly incredible event. I'll remember this winter for a long time.

This is true! The highest temperature confirmed the day prior to at least 0.1" of snow at DCA was 78F on 3/18/1934. The next day (3/19/1934), DCA measured 0.1". This was at the location prior to the new location of DCA now. Another tidbit that likely has been broken was the warmest temperature on the same day at least 0.1" was recorded. The previous record was 67F on 11/11/1995 before a strong cold front came through allowing for 0.2" of snow to accumulate later that day. DCA at the 08z ob (1:52AM), the temperature was 77F which would obliterate the old record by 10 degrees. This was quite the event.

I guess were not done with winter up here.

It’s winter in Florida too. You average in March what I average in April…and I don’t consider April a winter month here.

Had 0.3” here on grass and colder surfaces. As soon as I drove up the hill to my neighborhood the ground got white

Damn 83 years old, RIP. Him and Chuck Scarborough…part of my childhood.

We were taking our daughter to PWM for her flight to PHL, so we'd have missed even if we tried. (And the snow in PHL and Harrisburg canceled her flight. She and a couple dozen fellow 'refugees' are overnighting in the secured section of the airport, and will catch the 5:20 AM flight to DCA thence to PHL, probably on a 2nd airplane. Fortunately, she had no checked baggage.) Sandy River was up thanks to yesterday's warmth, but nothing serious. If we get an inch-plus at 50° on Monday, could be some excitement. Ice cover should still be thick and solid, and a 3-mile jam formed from Farmington Falls to the head of rapids in New Sharon last December during ice-in.

It was same up here. 2000 Feet had a dusting with maybe an inch above 2500 ft on Wallen Ridge near Pennington gap. Norton had Vehicles and grass covered from what I was told. Not alot of observing lately as Son n Law passed little over a week ago and Life here has changed.

Have to see if this is confirmed, but the temperature yesterday to having at least 0.1" of snowfall measured at DCA might be the warmest it has ever been for that occurrence. I will double check, but I believe the previous record was a temp in the upper 70s.

Enough of that bullcrap. Its still winter.

Agree. I remember watching Storm Field and also Frank Field.

Yeah…should be red up here

This actually happened at the right time here. It got dark before any real melting could begin. This makes it about on par with the rest of the events this year for the yard.

Pretty healthy snow shaping up for Minnesota and Wisconsin this weekend

sadly, that is most likely correct. forecast be damned, wet roads, non-accumulating snow, etc. we're gonna dump

I was looking at @Cobaltas your biggest threat, but BWI seemed to be in a snow hole today while RIC hit the jackpot.

Sucker (thankfully) missed the house by roughly a third of a mile.

I don't think I've ever seen you root for snow in N IL.

51F 24 hour temp drop at DCA - largest (tied) on record.

If you go onto COD nexrad and look at the satellite you can see the snow disappear as soon as the cloud deck exits eastward.

It swept through the area. Everyone east of MT Airy got similar amounts although it my have accumulated more in colder spots.

Getting icy-slush freezing over on my deck.
