Just a completely different evolution than the Euro. That said, the players are there. The euro pairs the shortwave in the SW with the trough diving down through the Plains. The GFS has both of these things, but doesn't sync them up.
Just for fun, the wind accumulation product from Windy provides the peak modeled wind gust. Let's see how they do at DCA:
NAM 3k (06z): 57mph
HRRR (13z): 60mph (!)
GFS (06z): 63mph
Euro (06z): 49mph
ICON (06z): 54mph
A causal reminder that, inland, we don't typically get big winds with SE flow. It generally stays elevated. That said, the NWS P&C for DC Tuesday evening has 30G45mph which is solid.
Snow maps are going to struggle on the boundary. Soundings and QPF are the way to go. I’m modestly happy with this run sitting on the western DC Beltway.
The column is holding on for dear life from 18 to 21z in the DC area. It eventually falls, but there’s almost 0.6” precip by 21z. Ratios would suck, but it would be a few inches of snow first in this scenario.
