This reminds me so much of the first few hours of the big Jan 2016 storm. If only...

I know, reminds me of some of my early memories of one of the 2009-2010 winter storms. Just feels like this should be a big MECS or HECS with the snow sticking to everything and the temps in the low 20s but alas it is not meant to be.

When is the NAM's wheelhouse cause this is its 18z run for 3pm. Lol

Still 21 degrees outside, very heavy snow but unfortunately small flakes. Around .5 of an inch on the ground. Roads caved, even treated ones. 

When’s the last time that the roads became white before the grass? Feels like a major snowstorm is just starting.

Went for a bike ride when the snow started, very cold and temp has dropped from 23 to 21 since snow had started. Snow is also starting to pick up in intensity.

First flakes 5 minutes south of Reston, 23 degrees out.

There are some monster hits in the EPS

Pictures?

Hard to believe in 24 hours it could be raining or sleeting instead of snowing but here we are.

DT's last call map. He is heading to an epic bust IMO.

Imagine cutting amounts by over half for MB compared to yesterday after the models didn't change that much today. LOL

GFS stalls and tucks next weeks storm off Virginia beach. #ThisisTheOne

The gulf is open for business.

And it's selling unseasonable warmth! 

Some of the more enthusiastic people here have mentioned thundersleet or thundersnow. Any chance that happens @psuhoffman or any other person who knows what they are doing?

But then everything goes wrong in a very rare combination. 

So in other words if any other the timing was different, slower or faster we would of done better? Was there any way this could have gone worse for us?

Why does everybody hate DT?   I remember some posts from a year or two back where he was going crazy and having a meltdown or something and he seems to be good at lashing out and blaming others for his own shortcomings.  But other than that is he ok?

He’s blaming the NWS for his failure. That is unacceptable, everyone knew his forecast was stupid and to save face he is blaming them. How is he not a loser?

But the models haven't  yet ingested the effects of the Tongan volcano eruption!

I was at Jay Peak last March during a snowstorm. I can share the pics in the picture thread if you’d like.

I think we would all like that

i agree I feel this will be a now cast event. To much going on with the cold air with all the highs bouncing around and dynamic weather pattern and the Low hasnt even really started to decided where it wants to go.

Dude, there is a 97 percent chance that it’s over. Accept it, enjoy the couple hours of snow you get.

If anything this storm is another big win for the GFS this year. Was the first to sniff out the inland track. Really this is a huge win for pretty much every global if it goes down how it looks like it will, they were consistent since Wednesday. Honestly it’s really amazing how well they have done.
