yeah VDOT is pretty bad with snow.  That's one of the differences between living in a city vs county in VA.  In our city, the city was responsible for clearing snow (and did an OK job).  The county roads were always terrible lol.

Its the disparity thats the problem.  My cul de sac was plowed 5 times and its not anywhere near an important road.  Yet 1/2 mile away a neighborhood with hills was never touched.  The groups contracted to plow are just not efficient or doing their job.  I don't know if favoritism is playing a role but i suspect it is.  

ah the age ol gripe fest over schools.  All I know is that based off pics and what people have told me, VDOT has done a shitty job with this storm.  There are streets near me that are total ice.  Never plowed.  So while yours might have been not all have.  

I know there’s a lull right now with storms but can we knock off the trips down memory lane. Take it to banter.  Please

1/6: 9.0”

9.0" for the storm.

Saw that orange glob and the storm ticker on RadarScope, and I got excited!

Those yellows and more could be a nice burst.  SE Fx Co sweet spot.  Those words are never said in a snow storm

I think you me Yoda will close in on 10 when the fat lady sings.  Oh and about a million others too.  Legit SN 28 

If that happens I'll be amazed.  The sleet I think shaves 1" off what we could get but having some nice snow now.  Anything over 6" will be sweet IMO

Back to mod/heavy snow here

Same.  Back to all snow

measured 5" with mix of snow/sleet

26.2/24

Don't care about mixing or anything.  I'm happier than a pig in shit.  My low end call can verify and if i get 8 from the stuff later its all bonus snow.

haha...you're good.  I'd probably go 9.5" for me and you .  In fact I will.  Good luck, Andrew.  

Lets just go no sleet and see where that gets us.  6" is my low bar with pingers.  Top end is 10"  Middle would just be nice.  Have fun enjoying this, Matt

I was just about to post a drink ob…

Started with a Bowman's Single Barrel, then just finished a Vienna Lager. About to pour a vodka and seltzer (Wegman’s Cherry/Pomegranate) and see where that takes me.

Rum and coke is my pre dinner beverage.  Now that its radar watching time I want to sip on something nice.  Cheers!

A Manhattan with Makers Mark is amazing, by the way!!

Rum and coke done and now to Ginger and Makers.  Gonna be radar hallucinating all night.  Come on Super Reflec Tilt 1

yup.  

at this point the way I forecast for MBY for a storm like this, here's my final

1) Take 18z Euro QPF (around 0.85")

2) Multiply by 0.85 (coincidence)

3) Multiply by 12

Answer - 8.7"

Final forecast for MBY

8-10"

Enjoy the snow everyone.

 

 

 

Hoping my trash can lids can verify your call
