  1. 0.41” precip. That is a ton of frozen. Skating rink on the sidewalks out there this morning.
  2. There are 400k Dominion Energy customers in Fairfax County. One poor sap is without power right now.
  3. Sure enough, sun went down and it all froze up nicely. There is the faintest breeze, and you can hear the trees crackle. 27.3 and freezing drizzle.
  4. Just took a walk with the dog. Sidewalks greasy but not slippery, if that distinction makes sense. There is a glaze on all elevated surfaces, but nothing significant. Maybe 1/8”. This would have been a big deal if it happened overnight. 29.2
  5. Most icy thing I could find. 27.7. 72 w/m2 solar.
  6. 27.7 and ZR, but this is really low-impact due to the sun angle. Little accumulation on the wires or trees. Sidewalk is wet. Metal surfaces are certainly icy.
  7. The sleet is providing a bit of grip! 28.6
  8. Sleet and ZR started a bit ago. 28.9/22 so the temp will probably fall a bit.
  9. I didn't realize immediately that this post was from yesterday.
  10. The HRRR and 3k NAM seem to agree that it is mostly freezing drizzle during the day Saturday and then there is a batch of ZR that moves through overnight. DCA might have had a sub freezing day except for the midnight high.
  11. The way Mattie feels about CC is the way I feel about composite reflectivity.
  12. 1.5" - 12/16 0.1" - 12/18 0.1" - 1/25 4.7" - 1/31 to 2/2 1.7" - 2/7 0.3" - 2/10 Total: 8.4"
  13. The American mesoscale models did really well with this one. Kudos to the NWS.
  14. 0.3” frozen on 0.38” precip. Disaster.
  15. @mattie g is already on the wrong side of this. No whining.
  16. Yup, all sleet here now. Curse the NAM and HRRR for being right.
  17. Traffic cams around Dulles look like wet snow, but it is hard to tell.
  18. 33.4 in Falls Church 34 at IAD 35 at DCA
  19. DCA has had very reasonable measurements in the past few years. This seems oddly aggressive, but maybe they are doing better. About 1/4” here.
