What time did the hrrr and nam start showing snow? When will we know which is likely to verify? Now, based on current temps vs what was forecast? .

Thanks for the thread and safe travels, @Mikeymac5306. Safe to say you have thread-making duties for the near future. May be a tough one to top though.

Raining hard here now, That's a hell of a band on radar. Hope to see that when its snow lol.

Good morning. Tilted hard yesterday and almost decided to drive to a family house in Long Island. Problem is I think I could get stuck for a week. Snow weenies should all be given remote jobs. Anyway, mostly just hoping and praying the Euro has the right idea. Might opt to take this one across the river and get an extra 350’ of elevation. Could deal with a 5” consolation and then hope the Euro is also that nobody is really exceeding 20”, lol

Guess I was right, big fatties starting to mix in!

Obs thread started

Snow is measured on a white board. Not in puddles.

Yup…although 2 days ago we were putting this storm in its grave.

Discuss Obswrvations, reports, conditions here for Blizzard of 2026 (no model discussion)

I drove to the Catoctins once in a marginal event where Germantown only had a slushy coating and I saw 6" and cotton ball sized flakes there. I only drove 33 miles. Can't wait to hear your obs Light rain, 37

Hrrr can’t even model 1hour our correctly. Toss

First flakes in Morristown. Expecting around a foot.

We are the same age…78 is very vivid for me too. That was the benchmark here. But Feb 2013 delivered even more snow…so they are both the most impactful winter storms here now. Let’s see if this beast can match up to those two for my area.

We may have one or 2 more shots/threats looking at this Euro 6z 144hr 500mb anomaly map so long as that cold pool in Canada can push far enough south. Decent blocking over the Pole.

Many news outlets said snow. I heard them. They are still saying it. Mt holly said rain possible, but the public doesn’t read the nws discussions. Cut people some slack. Even yesterday people right here were saying snow by 8 am, despite temps being in the high 30s.

Every storm people panic day of. It's like clockwork. Oh it's starting as rain, oh it's too warm, oh it's too dry, amounts are too light, models are ticking east/west, it's not snowing yet, etc. And 90 percent of the time it's nonsense and means nothing.

36 degrees here with an east wind gusting to 20mph. light rain. I am expecting about 18 inches here and wind gusts at my house between 45 and 50. Anything more will be an over achiever.

Morning folks. Gray and misty here in SEPA, just about ten minutes north of Wilmington. Temp hovering around 33-34*. Careful out there today, all!

I definitely agree with that. I don’t see widespread 2 feet amounts but I’m sure there will be quite a few. His claim was baseless earlier. I think we land somewhere in the middle between the NAM/SREF and rest

An occasional sleet pellet mixed in with the rain here in Reston. 36/35.

WB 11Z HRRR statewide and zoomed. Note west of Bay it is just light snow by end of run at midnight.

I wonder what element of this is missing from the forecast. Most impacted area. Amounts, highest winds...duration? There is always something that is under/over predicted. Just like a fingerprint or a snowflake no two are the same.

light snow here in huntington, long island

Looking at my ring live view looks like snowing now in fair lawn NJ.
