  1. You realize most kids get to school by bus right?
  2. I mean its not gonna turn up the coast but we do get into its precip shield
  3. Precip shield out west looks more consolidated as the north stream seems less problematic
  4. Oh I was looking at the H5 map and the vort map I just had no idea what would actually lead to a better storm after comparing runs. I can tell setups like the one we just had on an H5 level but not this mess of phases.
  5. The southern end of the blue hole in ffx county is where I was for the event and I think my frustration was justified after seeing this map
  6. I have no idea what just happened with the GFS, but it does still snow.
  7. It seemed like accumulation shut off for a good part of Nova post 6-7am which really hurt us. If anything I remember being up from 2:30am onwards and at first the rates were .8 inch per hour and we were ahead of schedule but then the heaviest stuff never came north.
  8. You know people are bored when they’re debating the hour 84 NAM
  9. Measured 6.25 on the ground with compaction, so total snowfall is probably somewhere near 7. Got 5.0 inches before the ULL, and overall maybe a little disappointing but hard to complain when it’s so pretty out.
  10. Do you think we can get in on some better flakes before the second round ends?
  11. Finally have dendrites, looks like this storm may end well.
  12. Under some dark greens and seeing some decent flakes
  13. Have had some light to moderate snow in Reston for the past 45 minutes. Was a nice surprise while sledding
  14. Looks like it’ll be between bands again for Reston. Hope all of those up north can makeup for their relative miss this morning.
  15. Finally was able to see non needles fall from the sky
  16. That’s how it was for me when the band was further west, hopefully the next band gets just a hair north
  17. Got a couple nice flakes to mix in with the usual snizzle but it couldn’t even last more than 10 minutes sadly. Looks like this will be a time where southern ffx county will help get me out of school
  18. Sharp cutoff line for that snow is running through Burke right now, can confirm if you’re north of it it’s extremely light pixie dust
  19. Did stay up from 2:30am till 6am and was a little worried this may happen for parts of Nova as the bands always seemed to die coming off the mountains before blossoming again east of DC. Oh well, we still got snow
  20. At around 4.75 inches with only spotty radar returns left out west for the morning batch so also seems like this forecast may not be great for me. Glad I hedged my totals with 6-10+
  21. Yep, now up to 4.25 by 6am, but Im going to sleep a bit till the band out west gets here
  22. 3.9 inches of snow by 5:30 with flake size finally increasing for real this time.
  23. 3.5 inches of snow as of 5am and flake sizes have increased as I start to get into the band hitting terpest right now. Though from 4:30 to 5am snowfall rates decreased from .8 to .5 an hour, I assume from subsidence as the band got closer.
  24. Cannot wait. Any chance of thundersnow with this forcing or no?
  25. Pictures from this morning taken on a D850 with 24-120 f/4 lens
