You guys definitely were forecasted even the models had you in the good snows. The suppression was epic unfortunately.

"Pappy" (me) has his granddaughter at ZooAmerica this afternoon. What a beautiful day and loving the new guidance! Love being out the day before a snowstorm in shorts!

I really think they're gonna go WWA for DC and immediate burbs

Not even sure that’s heavy enough for euro/rgem. Very conservative inland.

I was incorrect. The 15z srefs use 12z NAM initialization. However, tracking it last day or so it seems the next NAM run matches the prior NMB run. Not exactly the amounts, but the axis of its precip. Could just be a coincidence I’m not sure. We’ll see!

My parents' who are in their mid-80s live less than a mile From the coast in central CT. Heading up there first thing in the AM to "help them" and chase. An act of mercy and self interest. Bringing the DFH 120.

Dunno if this is more from LE... but...

Yeah, someone around 84 is getting buried. I'm really excited for tonight's mesos to try and get a feel for where the best bands could set up

Where they were talking about blizzard warnings for SEVA and even right up to the snow starting they somehow had 3-7 for the Peninsula.

CTP hoisted warnings. LWX and PHI shouldn't be too far behind.

Feeling good here in Loudoun. I think I am just enough east to get some decent snow, whether its from the IVT potential or LP being closer to the coast. West of Loudoun is the question mark imo.

To be honest, I was surprised that Blizzard Warnings were issued a little further inland towards southern Worcester County. BUFKIT profiles for ORH show 45-50 knot wind gusts from 2 am to 9 am Monday & 40 knot wind gusts from 10 am to 2 pm or so Monday. Definitely would fit criteria for Blizzard (35-plus mph frequent gusts & visibility 1/4 mile or less in snow/blowing snow for at least 3 consecutive hours).

Banding, one of my least favorite terms. I prefer deformation zones, etc...

Betting markets have 12.9" as the over/under for CPK, newly opened contract...might be worth taking the over for a little arbitrage on this one...

CTP issued warnings and issued watches further west

Yeah, not trying to spam the forum with maps. Just points of comparison - those seem to be recently updated in the last couple of hours. Some other sites are still showing maps from this morning...

Do you mean the bust a couple Fridays ago when they had less than an inch of snow and I got almost 4 inches in west Central Chesterfield 23120?

That's a concern for the real weenie rates in SNE. Will the peak RI well to the S initially preclude Bliz of '13 "everything falling out of the sky" rates!? Once deep occlusion takes place those wild rates come down.

Starting to think everybody gets 10 inches plus all the way up to Kingston. Around and below 84 maybe 15-20 not of the question.

He can't hype anything he is in a cutthroat business

Watches expanded westward, ho.

Very Euro/reggie driven.

We gotta pump that post:snow ratio back up in here.
