  1. Agreed. I moved to immediate DC metro in 2010 (post big storm winter). From 2010-2018, your area smoked our area every year. Since 2019, we've done better in a few storms. Just random chance @Maestrobjwa
  2. The best long-range model tracking days are when it's snowing! #traintracks #snowtown
  3. So if we average the GFS and CMC, we get nuked. Right?
  4. Stronger HP/good CAD (snowpack??!) and we will get smoked by this. But we play the track gamble game along 95.
  5. I am trying to be less bad at this but the western ridge looks better so far. I'm hopeful. But mostly have no idea what I'm doing other than many hours spent looking at 500mb plots.
  6. Pretty good rule to take your best-case scenario as like 2/3rds of what HRRR, RAP and NAM show.
  7. Love seeing streets in our urban area covered. Rare and awesome. Great storm even if we don't hit 12"
  8. Sick! Sharp gradients with this storm. I'm only about 20 miles, basically due west, of you. And we're at 6" max right now, though in a heavy band.
  9. This band is sick. I'm the little red x
  10. Yep, re-coating my driveway which I just finished shoveling.
  11. yep. getting monster flakes here too.
  12. I'm in the zip code 20910 just south of the 495 beltway and north of the DC northern apex, in Silver Spring. Just measured about 4.75" averaged across a few spots in the yard and on a snowboard surface. I was out shoveling from 8am til now. Went from SN+, to SN- with a bit of ice and frozen pellet drizzle (?) to back to moderate snow with bigger flakes in the last 15 minutes. Hope I can pull 6" out of the first part then another 1-2" later.
  13. Brief lull at about 715/730am near downtown silver spring just north of DC. Now back to mod/heavy snow. Eyeballing we're at 4"+ but will go measure and shovel soon.
  14. More than 2",didn't take a stick outside, so far near downtown silver spring. Weatherbug says 27/27. Cold, light catching flakes accumulating quickly. Small flake size. Morning jebwalk.
  15. Heck yeah. Jebwalk tomorrow night
  16. Yep, great event. I was in Hyattsville and have great memories of taking my then 5yo sledding while it was dumping snow.
  17. Pretty fun watching the eagles backups beat on the Giants.
  18. They always jack compared to us around the DC beltway. However, we have won in a few rare instances like Jan 2019 I think.
  19. 32/7 at my local school's weatherbug a half mile away. Tapping that good gulf juice on the water vapor loop: https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/goes/conus_band.php?sat=G16&band=09&length=24
  20. Not as cold here inside the beltway with local weatherbug stations around 20F, but that's still cold for the UHI
  21. just went for a morning run. Here in our neck of the woods, the ground is frozen solid. pretty big deal for before a snowstorm inside the beltway.
  22. @Jebmanputting this in banter where it belongs but here inside the DC beltway i am PRIMED to get out my snow shovels out of the garage this morning. Am i putting out any salt to pre melt on my driveway or sidewalk? NO! I am going to SHOVEL this HEAVY SNOW. I am going to PUT THE CAR ON THE STREET so it's not safe in the garage specifically so I CAN DIG IT OUT! Also, the guy who we bought our house from left a bunch of outdoor equipment here, including two shovels to supplement the two I already owned. I AM GOING TO DUAL WIELD SHOVELS
  23. On the other hand, non zero chance of back to back (to back? Getting greedy) warning level events. Pretty cool! But agreed on fail risk
