Snowflakes falling along Fairfax County Parkway.

Snow pellets in Gainesville

Definitely a different look for Saturday night now. I will hang in for 2 more runs. Something different is going on.

NWS has 90% chance of snow and sleet on Saturday.

LOL. That was not an attack Stormtracker. I feel the same way others do when the trends go against us I used to hate reading a particular poster on this board because he was very very good and very popular on this board and a pro, and could always cut thru to the real deal, which meant, most of the time, no snow for us. That would take the fun out of tracking. So apologies to anyone I may have done that to today.

So if anyone expresses doubt or cynicism re chances of snow but says there not being a deb downer, that's alright then?

Don't you have to think the north trend will continue? How many gfs runs in a row have trended north with this system now? I mean is the depiction of the cold press legit? And after all, it is April.

Don't kid yourself. Bristow is warming up his snow blower as we speak and Ji is thanking God that Bob Chill showed up. LOL

We're getting closer to the event and the models are not backing down, yet. All we need now is for the storm to turn up the coast on Sat. night. This would be a crazy ending to this POS winter. lol

I'm ready for some heat. I want to wake up tomorrow morning then go outside and run into a wall of humidity.

I was referring to Fairfax County when I gave that opinion, where 4-5 inches fell. And yes, things would be different if I were in charge., but alas I am not.

Nice water vapor loop.

I am not a teacher and have never worked in a school system but I have always wondered if it would be feasible to keep the schools open if a certain percentage of the students could make it to school on a particular snow day safely. Why close the entire school system for a storm like we had today where the roads have mostly been cleared in the more densely populated areas and they end up closing because a small percentage of the students is deemed to be making too much of a risk to get in.

Fairfax County has too many "needs".

What a surprise. What took them so long to make that decision?
