  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. GFS isn’t terrible all things considered. It is so dry coming in that we get solid evaporational cooling. Precip totals are back up closer to an inch.
  4. Forgetting the thermals for a second, the improvement in QPF from 12 to 18z is notable. We are back over 1” region wide.
  5. Not worth fretting about. Column is fine and heavy snow accumulates. Our risk is track.
  6. CoD has me at 15" 10:1, 10" Kucera, and 2" snow depth. LOL
  7. Oh yeah, poor Baltimore and their SB drought.
  8. The squirrels are freaking everywhere. My 6 and 18 month old pups are a handful on walks. Some of the idiot squirrels run right in front of them.
  9. 6" for December puts me only a few inches below normal on the year. As of December 10th I was still running last place over the past 10 years, but the three storms bumped me over 2016 and 2017.
  10. Does anyone just buy a lot and plop down a pre-fab house?
  11. ‘09/10 was Canada’s warmest winter on record to that point.
  12. Casual 17 degree spread over a couple of miles
  13. This would be a bummer for a lot of places that are used to a White Christmas.
  14. The coast may get interesting, but those SE winds rarely ever mix down inland.
  15. Probably. We can all use our Reddit alts.
  16. Not gonna lie, I read the name as Kestrel and thought it was appropriate
  17. Was that the one where they lost track of the snow board?
  18. DCA's ASOS is on the east (river) side of the runways. It is not near the buildings. Now, the snowfall measurement location is a completely different issue, but they seem to have fixed that in the past 5 years or so.
  19. After driving down towards the river, I’m shocked that DCA did get on the board. There is no sign at all that it snowed, other than the cars that came in from higher elevations.
