I feel like OPM made a bad call. I get it, it’s “only” a few inches, but the timing is shitty. 

CWG updated their totals. Slight tick up. 

32/20 in Reston after a high of 35 today. Bring it!

Almost 5.5” in north Reston. I think 6” is a safe bet.

Snowing like crazy now in Reston. Flakes the size of pomegranates. 33.2

Serious question here from someone wanting to learn. 
 

You all remember last winter, I think it was near the end of winter, there was a strong cold front moving through and all the models were calling for anafrontal snow? It went from a prediction of nothing to several inches even in the metros shortly before the event, and we ended up getting nothing.

Is there something about this setup that’s different? Growing up in this area, I know how difficult it is for us to get anafrontal snow, and I’m trying not to get my hopes up. 

Some pretty good convection, forming in western Virginia. It’s going to be an exciting few hours.

Heaviest snow so far in Reston now. Easily 1” on the driveway.

Beautiful band right above me in Reston. Looks like a new 3” or so already.
