Got what I expected here in College Park. Took a jebwalk along the NW branch of the Anacostia in some light sleet. Wondering if we'll get that second wave of ice...
-
thicc and juicy snowy bois are spinning down in college park. we're holding strong at 28/28... unusual, as we're usually part of the UHI/fall line crowd that warms up.
-
Moderate snow here in College Park south of the central/northern MD extreme deathband. Still accumulating nicely; still holding at 28/28.
-
Probably about an inch on cold surfaces, but nothing sticking to the roads quite yet in college park. 28/28 and steady snow
-
Still snowing in College Park - has not stopped since 7AM. Probably about 1 - 1.5" (no ruler available)
-
5+ hours of snow here in College Park. Pretty cool. UMD closed early - 1pm.
-
We've had steady SN from 830 through til now here in College Park. From 730-830 it was SN- . Exceeding expectations.
-
Deathband in College Park. Pic taken just now. Grass was totally clear before 7AM.
-
Wow, like the flip of a switch we went to white rain here on 20783/Hyattsville/College Park.
-
Precip is heavy in College Park, there may be an occasional thicc flakey boi mixed in with the rain.

Still rain in College Park/Hyattsville.

1000x this. When winter weather doesn't pan out, we often hear "the models suck." Do the models suck in June, when the high is 85 instead of a modeled 82? Or in October, when 0.52" of rain accumulates at 48 degrees, instead the prior day's 18z GFS, which said it would be 0.30" of rain at 51 degrees? No, no one cares! We care most when the errors matter most. I guess the non-winter corollary is the exact track of tropical cyclones. -
84 hour GFS panel has us a bit too warm for snow.

:(((((((((((((((((((((( Oh well, the cinderella run was fun while it lasted. Go birds, RIP 2018-2019 season

Me from April - Yesterday: why are we constantly getting so much precipitation? I'm sick of all the rain. Me over the last 28 hours: BRING THE JUICE SKY GODS
-
Dendrites slightly smaller but falling even thicker in Hyattsville. Radar is unbelievable, no indication this is going to stop anytime soon. Temp is 29 and not going anywhere but down.
-
We are officially ripping thicc fatties in Hyattsville. Nhood street caving for the first time since the morning, before the plows
-
Just returned from 3 hours outside with my 5yo - winter wonderland! He's exhausted - I remember that dead leg feeling climbing the sledding hills. The neighborhood streets around here were well plowed and heavily salted, so they're fine. Death band incoming! It's been snowing without a break since 3pm yesterday. Wonderful.
-
This is going to be one of those slightly rare storms where the fall line and areas to the southeast do better than the piedmont and hills to the NE. Sorry to all my higher elevated brethren! But those of us inside and around the beltway and closer to the water rejoice today! :-D
-
Nearly 5" even in Hyattsville near UMD, 28/28 and still snowing. Shooting for 7" + ! It's a gorgeous morning here. Thanks to our furloughed forecasters and the hobbyists here for sniffing this one out early - and also realistically assessing its higher end potential around the DC metro.
-
29/29 in Hyattsville close to UMD. Steady SN for 30 minutes or so now, untreated pavements have caved. It will be hard to not watch this out the window all night :-)
-
34 degrees, DP 20, and very light flurries on the border of College Park and Hyattsville.
-
The HerpDerp is on TT.

I thought I had unbookmarked this because of its consistent betrayals.

I left my son with grandma at 830AM, telling them to get outside soon to play once it started sleeting, figuring we were losing the battle before an eventual changeover. That's what we do here at less than 250' or so, and we do it well. But nope - snow again. Here's my unidentified location on campus:
