  1. Yeah I went for a 30 min walk and even the main roads have caved with these heavy rates. This is the Downtown Crown/Rio area. I think it’s about 32-33 here. I have a terrible thermometer on my apartment balcony that runs about 2-3 degrees warm (says 35) due to building heat...thus my estimate lol.
  2. Absolutely ripping in Gaithersburg. Amazing out there.
  3. Heavy snow now and the ground has gone from wet to white very quickly
  4. All snow in Gaithersburg now and that annoying dripping sound from the gutter has stopped. Rooting for y’all in DC!
  5. Almost all snow in Gaithersburg now. Fat, heavy flakes falling but seems to still be a little rain mixed in. I hate the sound of rain dripping off the roof though
  6. After lurking for a while, one thing I notice is the inevitable habit of jumping to conclusions before model runs finish. NAM looks good.
  7. Eh, I don’t see that happening. Maybe an isolated outage but it’d take a bigger storm to cause any widespread issues.
  8. Lots of sleet in Gaithersburg and no sign of snow mixing in yet.
  9. This latest band has really covered the roads in G-Burg.
  10. 28 and light snow in Gaithersburg. Nice coating and the intensity is picking up a bit over the last few minutes.
  11. 0z NAM certainly wasn’t as tucked as most other models, but the low was pulled farther west than 18z. Dry slot obviously an issue but I don’t hate the front end thump.
  12. I was moving to Maryland that weekend in Jan 2019 from Alabama and delayed my move by a week because of road conditions (had a 2 wheel drive car). Since I moved I’ve been thinking I’d kill for a storm like that! Hopefully this is the one, and anymore more is gravy.
  13. Just got back from a nice long walk in Gaithersburg. Steady snow has tapered off, but it’s quite cold and most roads are white here. Seems like 1/2 inch. Pumped that it looks like winter out there at least. I usually lurk, but enjoy everyone’s analysis here.
  14. Nice white coating with a few roads caving now in Gaithersburg. Snowing pretty steadily for the last 30 min.
  15. Lots of sleet in Gaithersburg, with a layer of glaze on trees. Saw all the precip types, and it’s nice to end on a wintry note! Ended the event with a beer walk in the sleet, could be worse. Cheers y’all
  16. Rain/Snow mix in Gaithersburg for a few minutes. Has since transitioned back to all rain.
  17. Honestly plenty happy with the GFS/Euro. Earlier today many wouldn’t have been surprised if everything trended warmer/more rainy. Great to see models are holding and give most a chance of frozen, can’t be mad about that!
  18. Checking in from Gaithersburg here. Moved here from Alabama in 2019, so waiting on my first big snow. We got 5” here in Feb 2019 so anything more than that and I’ll be happy! Thanks for all the info, love this place! Now that winter seems to be returning, I’ll start posting more. Just glad we have something to track!
  19. Mostly freezing rain with a few sleet pellets in Gaithersburg. Glaze of ice on elevated surfaces now
  20. Just rain so far in Arlington. My boyfriend in Gaithersburg says he “thinks it’s snowing” so I’ll take that as a rain/snow mix haha
