He isn't. 49/40 with rain approaching.

Which of those rides most reminded you about storm-chasing?

You'll be forgiven and then some if you can bring us our Category 5 up the Potomac.

Close indeed. Just get a slightly stronger push of warm and humid air and it could be a nice high shear/low cape convective event for some. Still have over a week for it to trend better..... or worse.

I feel..... young-ish? I guess because I'm still fairly young-ish (early 20's) I get this preconceived notion that everyone who I haven't seen in person yet or who's general age I don't know is fairly close to my age. I think there are just two posters that I know of on here (from what they've said) who are actually younger than me. *shrugs* I know there are probably more people on here who are aob my age who just don't post much. Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Maybe we get our dues all at once? ...

32F with rain and 0.04" of ice accretion on the trees.

DC, Maryland, Virginia.

Snow started just after 6:05am and became moderate/heavy within ten minutes. Fine small flakes. It's tapering off now. Herndon, VA.

There is the potential for some ice accretion.

IAD just gusted to 44kts.

Yes.

I thought we had a coastal that looked like this in late January 2017 with a very similar setup that did indeed end up being all rain. I may have the year wrong though. Monday January 23, 2017. It was the one year anniversary of the 2016 blizzard and there was moderate to heavy rain with fairly strong winds through the first half of the day. Far NW areas changed over to frozen (mainly sleet iirc) and got some minor accumulations. And also, yeah, I remember a NWS disco out of ME or New England with very "irritated sounding" wording about it being late January that year yet not being able to get much in the way of any snow. ETA: Could have sworn I was in banter... sorry about that.
