Should be pretty much done in Alexandria are right?

Pretty much every school district is closed tomorrow.

What are we looking at as far as sleet and frozen?

Close call for OPM.  2-4” is usually not shutdown worthy but the timing is dicey.  

Dont they usually use the LWX warnings? Which they already put a warning out with more snow than that. Guess they could change it today though.

Damn that NoVa / South DC band looks rockin!  I’m jealous. 

Im in Old Town Alexandria and it is a solid band for sure! Working out of our conference room because its the only room with a window lol. 

Solid flake size and rates in Old Town.

yup...is it even snowing?  I'm looking out the window at work and it is hard to tell...what an epic disaster of a storm

Nothing here, everything from before melted.

It appears we may get another burst that's southwest of us.

Oh nice! Yeah, got a decent coating here but nothing crazy.

Completely stopped now, guess thats it!

Was snowing heavy in Alexandria, cars and grass covered. Seems to have lightened up a lot though.

The weekies seemed to have toned down relative looks  to the extreme they had on the last update.   I continue to feel the MJO this year does not get enough attention for messing things up.  There have been issues with  the MJO phases and the extreme Pac Jet over and over again.  

I do feel the Nino is pathetic. For coming up on Feb., the favored time and the Nino effects, for us the look is disappointing.

Winter is canceled I guess.

It does look good! Thanks for posting!

Lol E13, 10+ inches of snow for almost the whole State of South Carolina. 1 in a million year storm!

What's with the literal meltdown in the long-range thread?

Thought I heard 5.4 for DCA as of a few hours ago.

I live right near DCA and if thats all the record then I dont know what to say. I am probably more near 8, maybe more now.

More bands pushing N into NOVA/DC...this is crazy.  

Have not been looking at the radar but noticed the snow picked up again! Nice!

Seems crazy but I will hug this like crazy.

How the heck do I get a Tweet to show up on here? Can't figure it out.

What are the chances of that happening?

Snow picking back up in Alexandria, near DCA.

No. HRRR has the coastal dropping an additional 2-5" DC south. 

Oh, nice! That's awesome. Wont bother clearing the car or anything else off then. Thanks!

Is it pretty much over?

Serious lull going on here...

Non-treated streets starting to cave.

Rate is picking up, dusting on cars and ground.

DCA somehow reporting SN- but it's 33°.  Terrible place for an observing station.

I am right by DCA and am having very light flakes now. Can see it on the top of cars.

The forecast of 8-12 for DCA is a joke. They MIGHT record 5 or 6. Of course, just outside the airport could definitely verify those numbers.

I am like a mile from the airport, hope the eight verifies here... lol
