Congrats Prince! I'm excited for your family..... and our MECS!

Lol at the this evening's temperatures at IAD.

Wow! This cirrus is some strong stuff. Combine with virga and you get a kick to the dark side of the moon!

So believe it or not I actually DIDNOT forget about changing my predictions. I just thought that I would be smart and pull an extreme WxWatcher007 and post my totals at 11:58pm that night which I did..... or rather, tried to do. My "plan" ended up being the biggliest flop blowing up in my face like Tsar Bomba. I had even posted this statement above my real predictions to start lol: " @PrinceFrederickWx you thought you were going to have to live with my troll forecast being in your database didn't you." My totals were actually towards the higher-end of all the other posts on here. But then at 11:58:30 pm est on November 30, 2018 when I attempted to post my totals it wouldn't let me post them because the thread had already locked . Kids the lesson here is don't wait until the last minute to do your homework or your big project that is worth 90% of your grade. Now if I somehow won with these joke totals it would be very cool and gratifying... but would also be at the expense of this forum's sanity... heck probably the expense of this forum, period... and thousands of puppies... and bunnies... total and complete carnage.

I don't know about you but I'm always down for a significant tropical system no matter the time of year. Now let me just remind you... I'm not a puppy so don't... ...well you know.

Forgive me and don't snap my neck or strangle me to death with your bare hands for my ignorance but... what does "KU" mean in relation to "KU storm"?

Sweet thumpanzees in Mamma Mia's nightgown! What the flippity flop a dippery dop model is this?! Whatever it is, it seems like the n/s vort drops in and phases with the s/s vort provides a BIG late save for us... so big that the surface low actually moves NNW to near the tip of Long Island, NY lol! Note the liquid equivalent rates in excess of 1.50"/hr over much of the forum area. I don't know exactly how temperature profiles look but that has got to be 18"+/hr snowfall rates! Absolutely unreal! It dumps in excess of 3 meters of snow through much of the forum in a SSE to NNW axis (locally 4-5 meters, especially in the mountains). Winds have got to be hurricane force... at least in gusts. Also notice New England starting to get annihilated by warm tropical rains and what has got to be hurricane force winds. The phase/capture of the storm is so weird and unnatural. It makes the storm unnaturally strong and moist kinda like a weenie with way too much time on his hands whipped this up just to aleet everyone of his dominance in Weenieingtonsville thinking that people would actually find him funny. WHO MADED THIS?!!

Pulling a blank here.

December is here at last!

The good stuffs-a-comin'.

18"+/hr snowfall rates?!! Did you observe any thunder or lightning with the squall? Also I believe that I speak for most on this forum when I say that you need to do a snowdance for us stat!!

It was a great afternoon for a walk in shorts today.

Late January IIRC. Don't quote me on that though. ETA: Ninja'd.

Goodly memories....GOODLY memories. Let's do it again.

The GFS at least.

Looking and thinking back, the earliest date in a year that I ever saw lightning was January 26th of 2011 from an unusual event that went from thunderstorms with small hail (heavy sleet/graupel?) to a heavy wet snow.

I don't know a Tornado Warning followed by an EF-1 moving over me with 80/low70s temp/dewpt sounds like a lot of fun to me. No matter how hard I try I can never get my family to agree with me though. As for Christmas, give me a Super Typhoon Haiyan strength hurricane shooting NNW from the central NC coast at 70 mph. These will make my entire holiday season. If neither of those, then just give me a blizzard with 10"/hr snowfall rates and hurricane force winds that would create drifts 5-10+ stores high and we'd be okay.

UPDATE: BWI: 1.7" DCA: 1.4" IAD: 3.0" RIC: 42.7" TB (SBY): 50.2"

With the first storm of the 2018-19 winter season well underway I figured that it was time to start this up (Don't kill me )... 2.3" of mostly snow w/ a little sleet with this storm for me. Will update accordingly.

Yeah. Big fatties in Herndon now coming down hard.

Currently the temperature is: 31 degrees with light snow and sleet. (Herndon, VA).

Yeapers.

Hearing pingers in Herndon, VA.
