I legit went to listen to G thang after the set was over.

0.5" snow. 0.17" precip.

Falls Church, VA 1/3/22 - 8.8" 1/7/22 - 2.8" 1/16/22 - 2.8” 1/28/22 - 1.2" 2/13/22 - 0.5" Total: 16.1” (81% of climo)

That’s awesome.

Nice snow globe action. Not really accumulating. 31.6.

0.2” snow on 0.13” precip for my CoCoRaHS report. Ugly.

35.6 and snow in Falls Church.

00z HRRR is a bit cooler, which is nice.

March 2nd a few years back was pretty cool.

I hit 60 earlier, but it has backed off to 55. This must mean something.

It is warm for us. Honestly, makes more sense than somehow getting into the 20s.

Did some cleaning out of the garden beds today. Going to try to get the mulch in earlier this year.

60.6. Torch!

Seems pretty straightforward. The GFS syncs the northern vort with the trough and the euro doesn't. We are rooting for the former.

42.7 DCA 43/30

Feb 5/6, 2010 - Everything that has been said here. Knowing that it was coming was incredible, and it is impossible to divorce it from the excellent pre-game (11.2" from 1/30 and 2/2), and follow-up. Just a beautiful event all the way around. 24.7" Oct 31/Nov 1, 1991 (in Minnesota) - The GOAT storm in Minnesota history. 21" in my location, 28" in Minneapolis, 36" in Duluth. 8' drifts. Everyone has a story about this one. Overshadowed nationally by the "Perfect Storm" which was happening at nearly the same time. Unbelievable long-wave pattern. Dec 2009 - My first east coast storm will always be special. 19" Jan 2016 - This was such a great storm, but suffers a bit because of the "what could have been" aspect of the long period of very light snow during the middle. Still, 24" and good wind will always rank this among the best. Honorable mentions: Feb 9-10, 2010 - the superband in the morning was fun, but the Miller B aspect meant it really developed a bit too late (9.5"). Feb. 2014 - simply for the pounding snow overnight, downgraded for the warm temps in the middle (13.7").

Fan aspiration is critical for a home PWS if you want to be close enough in full sun.

They stuck with 33 as a high, so they threw out the bad readings.

You aren’t wrong. Something clearly went awry with the sensor at IAD this evening. The climo report looks correct, for now.

Finished with 1.79”. What a soaker.

Almost 1.5” rainfall for the storm. Really comes down heavy in spurts.

Moderate rain, 39.5. Pretty gross.

Noticed that nobody wore anything on their head. Wonder if that is against the rules or just “tough guy” syndrome.

That is maybe the most Texan I’ll ever be.
