Just came in from outside.  These bands are delivering!  

It started intensifying here [Olney] just as I finished shoveling, lol. Oh well, it'll be easier the second time round

I am just an ordinary person that likes to walk in snowy conditions, lol. I probably am a bit too obsessed with the stuff.

Now, YOU are a Living Legend. You are the guy that knows storms. You KNOW patterns. You should have a red met tag. Your posts are GOLD. My posts take up bandwidth, lol.

Give this man a RED TAG stat.

Jebman, sorry for butting in. You and your posts literally symbolize the epitome of the enthusiasm that drives half the board to be weather enthusiasts. I honestly don't think this forum [and the predecessor] would be the same without your posts. Don't trivialize them!

What is a jebwalk

It's like communion during mass, it's a deep-rooted tradition -named after Jebman- of walking through a snowstorm for the sole reason of admiring the scenery. Now that you know, you should go take one and snap some photos

The radar signature of this storm reminds me so much of the Feb 5-6 2010 storm. Not as juicy but very similar.

Very much an uncanny resemblance [first is current radar; second is feb 2010]. The precip shield on the east side is oriented differently and not as intense but the same general shape and breadth. Pretty cool if you ask me 

Roads are covered in rockville and probably a little over half inch on non-asphalt surfaces. I'm really impressed with how fast the snow came in, not much Virga despite the low dew points earlier today

500mb low at present. Looks nice!:

Spending the day near Rockville and it's been lightly snowing here for the last hour or so. I'm incredibly excited for this storm! Here's to a pleasant surprise for everyone 

I remember going outside the garage, and the snow being up to my thighs.. when the garage door opened the snow blew into the house, and I had to clean that up, then I took a picture of my dad's car which was burried totally in the snow. It was quite the sight

ya didnt feel it here either, but I checked and there was one at 8:04 pm..

What do you think the chance is of an aftershock?

how rare is it?

Wow I didn't know it could affect so many areas so far Connecticut all the way down to GA felt it from reports on the other regional threads.

ya just felt it too... that was the strongest I've ever felt it.. just stopped here.. insane

disregard my first statement in the first video (was so amazed by the site in front of me that I mistook my driveway for my yard )
