  1. I have a hard time taking it seriously because of the graphics. It looks like something from TWC in 1987 lol
  2. I hear this all the time. I've been in ice storms and when it pours you can almost see the trees turning white and sagging. I remember in I think 1993 we had a real ice storm. Only one I've ever seen that didn't melt at the end of the storm. I remember 18 degrees and pouring rain. The cold snap that followed kept the trees coated for about a week. It was beautiful. That cold shot was the coldest I've ever seen in this area.
  3. As I'm cruising around my area I'm noticing something interesting. The ice seems elevation dependent. The high area (180' plus the trees) still have a lot of ice. The areas under 150' have nothing left. Their must of been a cold layer about 2000' thick and sitting right above the surface. Above 2000' was the warm layer is my guess.
  4. This was the low keyest pbp ever lol. Shit was smooth lol
  5. Come on lowlands! We got this. I'd gladly take less precip if it means a clean storm. I'd take a clean 2-4 over an 8" slop that melts the same day it falls.
  6. Just heard rolling thunder. Trees are still icy but temp 34. This is much needed rain.
  7. Now that it's daylight I'm actually surprised at the amount of ice on the trees this morning. Roads are fine.
  8. Great to see much needed rain overnight and this morning. Looks like the heaviest is in Northern Virginia. That’s been the trend this winter. I'm sure there's some ice on branches but more of a beneficial rain than ice event.
  9. I agree. If you missed the January 6th event and long duration snow pack you are probably out of luck for a period of deep winter this season. I think we have a flood potential if we do get a big storm next week. It will likely be followed by warm, heavy rains unlike the January event. I feel lucky to have scored so well in that event. IMO that was the event of the season for the lowlands.
  10. This reminds me of that gfs run about a week before the 2016 monster. Wow! What a fun run. LFG
  11. It's not the fourm. It's the fact that no human or computer has any idea what will happen after day 5. The models are showing basically everything from warm and dry to cold and wet. Hopefully we'll actually have an idea over the next few days. My guts says climo Feb. NW will get snow. 95 east you know the drill.
  12. The day after the 2016 storm was a bluebird 28 degree day. The next day was 70 lol. It was the tail end of a deep winter period that lasted about a week. Other than that stretch of cold it was a pretty mild winter.
  13. Trail conditions at my local hiking spot were terrible yesterday. Greasy mud and half frozen sheets of ice made me thankful for the forecasted rain. I'm ready to start over fresh with another 10" snowstorm.
  14. It happened again in September. Three and a half weeks of drizzle and clouds. It was memorable to me because I was trying to not lose my cannabis crop to mold.
  15. The wind is here. I'd estimate 40+
  16. Soon as I made the comment the wind chimes started going nuts. I need a helmet for my afternoon hike.
  17. Where's the wind? It's been really calm under the wind advisory. Just a calm, warm spring day so far.
  18. The cold stretch in January with the two minor snow events. The rest of the year was kinda boring weather wise.
  19. The CMC says enjoy the wide spread 70's late next week.
  20. Yup. The roads are dry and the snow is just contracting. It's been a clean storm from start to finish here lol
  21. The Euro has 1"+ rains DC and north this Friday/Saturday. Hopefully that doesn't trend north.
  22. Some heavy rainers would be nice. I appreciate any kind of weather. If winter is on break then let's get some good rain. We need it. I've had about an inch of precip the entire month.
