My power went out at about 7:20 not long after the thundstorms swept though. Last time I could get the Pepco website to respond it said they'll restore it by 10:00. Not sure I believe it.

Have a cabin rented SE of Dallas, as do several old friends of mine. Will be my ninth total solar eclipse.

I think in 1977 it went below freezing for like 37 consecutive days
Yep. Everything froze solid including the bay. During that cold snap, my brother and some friends ice skated along the Patuxent River from just below Brighton Dam to Rocky Gorge just below Route 29.

Hoping the long northern-most streamer hits me just north of Colesville rather than sliding just north and east.

93 was obviously a HECS, but not based on snow totals along I95
Correct. We had something like 8 or 12 inches of snow followed by 5 inches of sleet that compacted it all down into a washboard of ice that stayed on the neighborhood streets for weeks. Was my daughter's 2nd birthday and we had relatives over for a party while the 'storm of the century" played out.

Squall has arrived here in Colesville, MD.

We have tickets for a 7:30pm Arena Stage show tonight. We could drive Colesville to Greenbelt, take the Green line to the Waterfront station, walk a long block to Arena Stage or drive all the way and park at the venue. I'm leaning towards driving the whole way, but concerned about potential road closures. Thoughts?

Somebody posted it showed up as 2.3 in NW DC
Yeah, it was centered in Rockville but felt in NW DC, MoCo, PG, and Howard:

Worth staying up for the Euro (and having an earthquake) but it reminds me a bit of the 12/16/20 storm where 4-5 days out we looked good for significant snow but the mix line quickly punched into the immediate metro. It was still a pretty fun storm with some high initial rates.
Thought I felt an earthquake! Checked USGS a couple minutes afterward, but it wasn't posted yet, then figured it nothing. Thanks for mentioning it!

Given all the cancellations there must be, it could be a great week to visit Disney World. Just sayin'

West is best
Cloverly area in the northern reaches of Silver Spring has about 3", though it's hard to tell with all the wind. We aren't west.

Baltimore County folks, did anyone get several inches OR pavement caving of any kind?
Just trying to figure out where the cutoff was between areas who did very well and areas that busted
In Cloverly, MD we have several inches on everything else, but the pavement is still just wet.

33.1 in Colesville and snow is coming down pretty nicely. Not much wind here so far with the snow - had some good gusts earlier during the rain, though.
Blowing like crazy a mile north of you.

Finally seeing flakes in Silver Spring. And it didn’t take long to transition to all snow.
Can I make a request: Please put your location in the body of your reply. You can’t see locations mobile.
If you turn your phone sideways the locations show. But it's still nicer if people do as you ask.

You mean when IronTy cancelled winter the other day, he could be wrong? That’s unpossible.
He should've had his wife fire winter.

Bit of sleet or something here.
ETA: I guess graupel would be the correct term.
