  1. Will say when I went to take some snowflake pictures I couldn’t really get any “nice” dendrites, hoping snow growth could get a bit better as the night goes on
  2. Up to around 1.25 inches, measured from the deck not any snowboard which is why I suspect the slightly lower totals compared to those near me. Will probably just use iads measurements
  3. Managed to snag some nice pictures of deer, cardinals and another bird while out!
  4. Was out in the snow for an hour taking pictures, rates have improved dramatically in the last 15 minutes which lines up with the yellows nudging closer to Reston. Shaded driveways are beginning to cave as well, somewhere around .25 for snow on the deck.
  5. Grass is really starting to cave here, going to go out to take pictures of some birds (hopefully cardinals) in the snow.
  6. Temp has dropped to 31 degrees with light snow. Everything is just wet right now but will probably start to accumulate soon
  7. Been oscillating between light snow and flurries for 20+ minutes but in the past 5 moderate snow has started. I suspect before then there was still some dry air as relative humidity has increased from 60% to 74%, while the temp has dropped to 32.2
  8. Technically as a mid 2000s kid you could be my grandfather
  9. I may be wrong but the radar seems pretty ahead of schedule? If anyone smarter than me wants to weigh in on that, it would be appreciated.
  10. Considering I live more or less exactly where you did I'll just take this verbatim, hoping for a solid 4-7 down here with some solid jebwalks during the evening
  11. It does actually have a semi precarious warm nose near 850 for NOVA, and the whole column seems a bit warmer overall which isn't the greatest.
  12. Can't wait for the rain in Germantown
  13. Listen we all make mistakes, the important thing is that I've been publicly humiliated enough to not attempt a play by play till at least the next storm.
  14. Verbatim inch per hour plus rates during the evening as the sun sets.
  15. Whole lot of lift throughout the column, including the DGZ. If this sounding came true would the dominate snowflake type be dendrites or a combo of all of them?
  16. I actually think you were initially right, at least for the 12z with its 21 hour precip panel being a shellacking.
  17. Looking at the 12z NAM im not so sure I'm seeing what you're seeing. The precip field looks further south...
  18. That may be the stupidest schedule I have seen in my life, but thank you for it as I now have complete justification to skip because I don't want to spend 2 hours in AP Capstone.
  19. 36.7 and dropping near Reston, fcps with a 3 hour early release but may just be “sick” and go on a hike down near Front Royal
  20. Well to be fair with all of the 1/6 comparisons something that may be in this storms favor is better lift in the DGZ which really held 1/6 back from achieving much beyond its low end forecasts
  21. I know everyone is excited over the NAM (and we should be!) as it provides a good high range output, but the 12z HRRR I think provides a decent example of what a low end "bust" output would be for the region (and even then its not that bad).
  22. Not sure if I’m late but winter storm warnings are up for some of the southern counties
  23. 12z NAM has a solid thump of sleet for Thursday as well
  24. One thing I dislike about the NAMs compared to their 18z runs is the earlier shutoff of precip as the coastal low exists faster.
