12Z GFS is all snow here. At least for now. More than 0.50" QPF. FV-3 mixes, and is of course much wetter.

I finished with exactly 1.00" liquid. 0.76" was snow (sleet mix at times) and 0.24" was freezing rain.

Just measured ~0.15" ice accretion on tree branches. About the same on top of the snow cover. Pretty cool to break ice sheets off the top of the snow.

Steady light freezing rain at 30.5° is glazing things up nicely here now that the sun is down.

CLI report says DCA recorded 2.6" today. At 16.6" for the season now, there are only 6 winters in the past 31 years with more snowfall than this year at the airport.

I measured a total of 0.76" of liquid from the 5.7" of snow that fell this a.m. That's a ratio of 7.5:1

The thunder snow this morning ranks this one up there with the best < 6" events I have experienced. It wasn't the muffled thunder you sometimes get in winter. It was legit.

Spotter in Petersburg, WV already reporting 2" on the ground.

Light snow and a freshening breeze. Temp up to 30.6 from 28 earlier. Should dip back as precip becomes steadier.

Sure did ! As your Boom thread notes, its been a great stretch for March snows. Hopefully next year will bring a better distribution of snow throughout the winter season.
