    i think it's pretty safe to say that a 5" snowstorm after Feb 20 in the immediate DC metro is much rarer than it is from Jan 1 to Feb 20. If we count the number of such storms that have happened in that period vs the number of times where such a storm hasn't happened, I would wager that the latter would far outnumber the former.

    sure, but a snowstorm around here in late march is what, a 3 or 4 sigma event? probabilistically, significant snow after mid feb is rare, and becoming rarer.

    that's 16 years ago. things have changed. sure you could get the anomaly and up by you it certainly is more favorable. but inside the beltway, we struggle to hit freezing at night in the heart of winter. my mid/late feb, the flowers are blooming (hell flowers around here basically never died).

    in two weeks, the avg high at DCA hits 50F. Have a nice evening everyone!

    nothing but green grass here downtown (where we have grass lol) - but we drove up to the cathedral and there was a nice dusting up there. elevation matters, even in the middle of the city.

    overnight low of 35 right downtown - another night where we can't even get near freezing in the heart of winter. at some point we should start planting some palm trees (some apt buildings around here have actually done that).

    43/28 downtown. full overcast now.
  8. pazzo83
    you are doing it right man - live in the city but have a place way out in the mountains where you can rack up accumulations.

    ok i was thinking maybe it was a DT thing too.

    is the Short Pump joke just because a random unincorporated part of Henrico County just shows up on some of the maps or is there something else?
  11. pazzo83
    that is the needle we thread here along 95. at least we got some flakes!

    the issue with this storm was we were still in the mid 40s basically as the precip was arriving overnight.

    there used to be a few folks on here from Italy that would post insane snow pics from there - not sure if they are still here.

    I'll vouch for UVA!! Although it has been quite a bit since I was there, both my younger sisters also went (youngest graduated in 2014).

    2020 was such a long year, that feels like a million years ago.

    don't let the door hit you on the way out champ!

    embrace the coming spring.

    heavy snow downtown - but basically not sticking to anything: 34/33
  20. pazzo83
    you get an initial drop around sunset of a few degrees and then it just holds steady - i remember plenty of mornings in NYC where we'd be around 30 and literally 20-30 miles west in NJ it would be near 0.

    heat island is magical - in the absence of wind, the temperature does not drop here. NYC is even more insane.
  22. pazzo83
    45/28 downtown.
  23. pazzo83
    still mid 40s downtown...

    fantastic day in the mid 50s here in the District - you can smell spring right on the horizon. the Mall and all the open space has been a refuge for my 2yr-old daughter and me during the pandemic. Today, she asked the Washington Monument (which she claims is hers) what its favorite food was.
  25. pazzo83
    yeah the mall has tons of open areas with limited tree cover - they get torched. on some side streets you still have some snow in planters on the sidewalk and open space that is under the shade of buildings still has snow.
