Last few runs of the HRRR had snow reaching here after 11:00. Radar looks like it may be quite a bit sooner than that.
-
Good stuff, Mitch. Thanks. It was my first snowfall after moving to the metro area from Western Maryland. After that one and Feb 1983, I thought I’d be ok with the move. Didn’t realize there would only be 4 above-normal seasons in the next 25 years.

Patriots 3 Dolphins 0 That was in December 1982 and it was a nice snowstorm down our way as well. 7” at my place in Laurel.

Before the game, Kirk Herbstreit predicted that a close game would be decided late on a Penn State turnover that would give Notre Dame the victory. Pretty damned good call.

Berkeley County schools have used up their 5 allotted snow days and are now mandated to go to remote learning with any additional cancellations. Don’t think anyone is prepared for that right away, so after 20 days off, they are going with a 2-hour delay tomorrow. Hopefully the partial day is spent working out the details before the next snowfall.
-
Most of the recent model runs have a bit more QPF through the Eastern Panhandle than further south in the Valley. Not sure what they are picking up on, but hope it’s right. It means the difference between a dusting and an inch+ here.
-
It’s been below freezing here since last Friday (144 hrs and counting)
-
Wasn’t the MJO cycling through phases 4-5-6 during December when it was below-normal cold nearly the entire month ?
-
High of 32 after a low of 19. Looks like MRB will be -3.5 for the month after the first week with much more cold to come.
-
Wow. Schools already closed here for tomorrow. Day 19 of Christmas break.
-
Flurries blowing around this morning. 19° with a wind chill of 5. Winds 21 G28.

12/15 - 2.2” 1/3- 0.2” 1/6- 4.8” total- 7.2”
-
4.8” storm total with the late save this evening.
-
Hoping the second stage of this storm can send DCA above 6” and join that very limited list of January 6” snowfalls that @donsutherland1shared recently.
-
Somehow (so far) the bands approaching from the NW are missing me to the south and east lol
-
My forecast in the a.m. yesterday was for 6-9”. In the afternoon, it was raised to 8-12”. I’m at 3” so far. With all respect to LWX, who I think does a great job, it wasn’t a stellar call for this area.

Looks like KC finished with 11.0”, so just shy of a top 10 snowstorm for them. It was their 4th largest single-day snowfall though.
-
I’m sure you will do much better the remainder of the day than I will. Most recent runs of the NAM and HRRR really cut back on daytime accumulations for my yard. Gonna be tough to reach the low end of the 6-12” forecast here IMO.
-
2.7” on the ground at 22° Rates have lightened up a lot in the past few minutes and radar upstream is more showery.
-
They probably had to load a new color scale for the 48”+ contour
-
That was the former @TinGTown who never returned here, after he passed out in the chair in his yard and woke up covered in 4” of snow.
-
First fine flakes reaching the ground in Falling Waters. 25/16
-
Everything I was able to look at this evening had me thinking 6-7” for my yard. So, I’m going to hug that LWX call and trust they know way more than I do.
-
That is at 10:1
