Don't know if this was posted here yet but for what it's worth, DT released his preliminary winter prediction. Overall, he seems quite bullish for the east coast https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?cid=1ca2f9a16d1a6375&page=view&resid=1CA2F9A16D1A6375!10383&parId=1CA2F9A16D1A6375!221&authkey=!ANupiTNyPXQDbOA&app=PowerPoint

And after 6,703 mid atlantic sub-forum posts related to this storm (threat threat+storm mode thread+this thread), this storm is wrapping up here in McLean with a little over 10 inches on the ground. What a fun storm to track

Would really be interested in hearing a post-mortem by one of the more experienced members of this sub. Talk about an overperformer-a couple days ago we were saying we'd consider ourselves lucky if we got 5 inches of snow. 

Maryland, you're in the jackpot right now. Wow 

A couple more bands to move through before this thing is set and done. (also, wow that band in Maryland) 

Still coming down pretty heavy in McLean with no signs of stopping on the radar for at least a couple hours. Tried to go out in the car, but roads were an absolute mess and turned around. 

Good time to remember when we all thought this would be a 2-4 event tops, and crossed our fingers for 5 

Had a really strong burst of heavy snow over past 45mins or so.  Slowing down a bit now but probably got close of an inch from it. Roads all covered again

Big flakes now in Mclean snowing at a pretty good clip with this band (sleet only lasted a minute or two) 

Sleeting in McLean right as this band gets going :/

incoming for DC....

Another nice band coming out of the SW moving NE (again, I removed clutter on the radar to highlight the stronger bands, the radar isn't this sparse) 

Had a big burst of heavy snow while out shoveling- lasted for about 10-15mins. Least measured a little over 6 inches here 

Still very light snow in McLean. Looks like we're at the foot of that huge band moving into Arlington/DC so hopefully we can get in on that 

Hoping this heavier band near Charlottesville is working its way up to DC (i removed clutter from the radar, which is why it looks so sparse) 

Good HRRR animation for the rest of the day

Steady snow in McLean. A little over 5.5 inches on the ground

This would be a Loudoun disaster

Good spot to be in here in Fairfax!

Heavy snow in McLean right now as this stronger band moves through 

Nice band heading into loudon/fairfax soon 

Heavier snow picking up in McLean near Tysons Corner as this heavier band comes in (after experiencing a lull for an hour or so). 

Roads are a mess around here everywhere except the beltway and dulles tollroad. 

Was snowing at a good clip for past couple hours but seem to be in a lull right now. short term models show it picking up again around 2 or 3 am

Don't know if this has been posted here, but good info on the duration of this event https://twitter.com/capitalweather/status/1084280206242840576
