  1. I know everyone is rooting against the ice storm, but as psu mentioned, a stronger wave on sat would not allow the Sunday wave enough space to amp up.
  2. I’m still seeing .15- .2 qpf of ice with temps of 28-29 in dc by hr. 42 with freezing rain ongoing.
  3. Normally a day and a half out, I could look at that euro projection and be rather confident that it will at least be close to verification. Honestly though, lately, I might as well be looking at the 51 hour RAP.
  4. You could do this nearly everyday for the past ten years if you are using DCA as an example. DCA is the warmest reading in the entire area at least 9/10 times. The city is usually 2-5 degrees colder (at least my weather station in mt pleasant is).
  5. Lol, for next week? The 00z run I’m seeing has temps in the teens and low 20s. What’s your bar for cold?
  6. It will still accumulate on everything (particularly at night) if the temp is 31 or below even with heavy rates, it just won’t be as efficient at accumulating.
  7. It spits out a tenth of an inch of freezing rain which would actually still be impactful with a temp in the upper 20s. The GFS is the driest solution by a long shot at this point.
  8. I bet this will be the one time we overperform. We certainly did with the ice two weeks ago.
  9. Wow, the NAM is a lot more enthused about the ice prospects after a really dry run at 12z.
  10. UK gets an inch to an inch and a half to dc.
  11. Hey man... the HRRR has dc in some light snow tonight for the first time as of the latest run. I’m starting to care a bit more after this latest debacle.
  12. CMC really beefed up qpf for Saturday. Kind of surprised to see that to be honest.
  13. This could also be why March has become more of a winter month in dc lately.
  14. We had a nice ice storm that accumulated on the roads here in nw dc less than two weeks ago.
  15. Yeah... the trends def are not good but we have a major issue with calling a storm before it even starts. The last three day snowfall was an excellent example... everyone was whining and bitching for days but we still managed 5.5 beautiful inches in nw and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Some of our members would should check out Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations.
  16. We have busted high many a time. Most recently Jan 2019 was a nice positive bust.
  17. The snow map is def wonky. I’m seeing temps on the para of about 32-33 in the northern half of the district at least. Hoping that that might be at least good for 1-2 inches of snow/sleet.
  18. It’s frustrating... but hopefully we can catch a break this time... it’s very close and I’ll pretty much take sleet or snow at this point.
  19. The NAM nest shows a general 3-7 inches from just south of DC to the PA line.
  20. If DC gets the 1.4 inches of qpf the NAM spots out in frozen form over the next 84 hours... whether that be snow or sleet or freezing rain... I’ll be pretty satisfied.
  21. The NAM shows the temp dropping below freezing early tomorrow morning. But yeah... that’s almost always a concern in the city unfortunately, even more so downtown.
  22. Thats kind of picking the worst panel... and doesn't really give a good overview of the general pattern evolution.
  23. It was actually pretty decent... even from Uber long range.
