I just drove back home from Richmond tonight and noticed the brining. I travel this route (259 to 48) probably 15-20 times a year and don't remember ever seeing them brined like that.

Ugh-rude awakening upon our return from south FL tomorrow night Although I did return for the blizzard) for 3 days). Either way, your own bed always wins.

Sorry to hear about your dad dude. And don’t worry, we’re paying attention but prob won’t see much out of this.

I’m up in New York visiting my dad - he’s unfortunately very sick. I’ve been up here since the big storm cleared out last week. 3” also fell the 2-3 days following the blizzard. Back home in Maryland WOULD last minute luck into some accumulating snow (in early march) while I’m not there. Book it. The GFS / SREF CONTROL score a coup and someone sees 4”. Prob my backyard. My dad says you’re welcome, weenies. All jokes aside… hope y’all get one last beautiful look at winter. Enjoy it for me

Son of a bdcf!

100 percent prefer the mountains , but a occasional night on the coast in a oceanfront hotel can't be beat.... Hardly anybody around tonight down here in VA Beach. Very peaceful & quiet in the off season...Balcony door open with the sounds of the crashing waves , lights of passing ships in the distance , some cheap whiskey.........................

Can’t wait to see pretty flakes flash melting on contact.

I don’t want to steal snow from Reagan and Dulles. I’m actually rooting for them to score for the snowfall contest.

Perfect placement here. Just needs to hold for a few more hours.

I think you just need to expand your hiking weather. Next to no one is out on our April to June perfect track gulf soakers which provides a really cool vibe. Additionally, some trails have next to no one on them at anytime for some reason. Personally, I plan to fully use this time period before bugs and yellow jackets infest the trails.

Wow, I just came across this article published by the Martha's Vineyard Times which states that they measured 38" in the parking lot of TCI Press printing company in my town. Extremely impressive to say the least. I wonder why that one never made it into the snow reports? https://www.mvtimes.com/2026/02/26/delivered-news-great-blizzard-26/

You know we're done with winter when our March write up is on severe weather

Some models have it better than others. Though enough show something of that sort where I'm cautiously hopeful. Don't really know where this lift is coming from but GFS and mesos show some 850-700mb temp advection and resulting FGEN which I guess will be something to watch tomorrow. I'm trying to finish my Modern Political Theory essay on Hobbes from home tomorrow ("spring" break) so some nice ambiance would be cool.

Fired

It’s not always sunny in Philadelphia. But prob will be for this one

Been noticing the Kuchera is greater than 10:1 so that helps with the context here - thanks! Just hoping it’s for DC and notsomuch parts between

You’re due, 2” for you

I’m fully expecting that Frederick gets no snow from the initial precip and the later round comes in as sleet/rain.

Was clicking around on some soundings and some models seem to have a sneaky good alignment of lift and the DGZ for a band tomorrow somewhere between DC and Baltimore. We got a saturated upper atmosphere so once the surface moistens I think it would actually be a very pretty winter afternoon for someone.

GFS-has bull's-eye for Central Virginia for run after run after run for tomorrow for a week pretty much. We get to less than 24 hours it's north and it doesn't even snow here at all. Conclusion most weather models are fine to give an idea about a storm but none of them are reliable outside of 24 to 36 hours.

yeah, clearly a rain sounding.

0z GFS is bringing a little more juice with wave 2, bringing it in earlier with a little more snow this run for the LSV .

i saw some national maps - and that seems about right for most of the Mid Atlantic.

There was a 4-6” system around 3/24. I remember I bought a tower with my first pentium chip around then and I accidentally dropped the tower into the wet snow but it survived. Hard to believe it’s been 29 years.

Eh, toggling the GFS I guess I can see 3hrs slower. I guess it couldn’t hurt to be closer to darkness
