This is storm #2

I was surprised when NYC got there in 2016 - it took basically the perfect flow of cold air down the Hudson. For DC, all the snow around will help. But I will still be shocked if we get there.

Well, the modeling certainly knew what it was talking about with the snow growth potential. At least when snowfall rates were on the higher side, I was seeing flakes up to 20-30 mm in diameter, but midnight observations here still had flakes up to 20 mm. I wasn’t sure if that 6 PM to 7 PM snow ratio would be maintained for the whole 6 PM to 12 AM block, but LOL, no worries there. This most recent block’s snow density just came in at 4.2% H2O for a 24:1 ratio – that impressive for an entire snow collection period, and indeed it’s right up there with the quality of upslope snow. This has certainly been some of the loftiest snow I’ve seen with temperatures hovering around the 0 F mark, so some unique conditions have come together with this system. At 24:1, even 0.75” of liquid produces 18” of snowfall, so the forecast numbers certainly aren’t crazy for areas that are in the banding.

-
What’s that old weenie saying? Always believe the euro on the night of a snowstorm if it happens to fall 6 days before the next threat? Something like that.

I was practically a toddler last time it happened in the immediate metros, and now I'm a few years from 40. I wanted to think the models were overdone with the cold, but the more they persist, the more I question what I thought was possible in this post-2016 base state.

Austin's Bergstrom international airport broke the record low max. temp of 33 F set back in 1961. Sunday's high (today) was 29 F. Also on yesterday the 24th, Del Rio broke the previous max. liquid-equivalent precip record of 0.35 in. back in 2012. The new record is 0.39 in. -
