These bands have really made up for the bitter disappointment of Sunday.  I never did measuring so I'll be curious to see what people nearby came up with.

in NW Clarksburg I am approaching 9"!!  just incredible.  Based on the radar, you should get close to 7" in Neelsville  area

Lol this band is now filling in to the east a bit. I'm getting trained on in Germantown by it and it's wonderful.

I am so glad your area in Germantown is under that persistent band.  In Clarksburg this band since early morning hours is just back-filling!   I remember Jan 2016 we had over 31" and my colleague lived 5 miles down the road had 25".  We all were following the standard guidelines when measured the snow every 6 hours and yet I had 31" but not as much few miles down the road.

We're looking at the area north of Germantown/Gaithersburg/Rockville.  

I can confirm that in Clarksburg.  The current persistent band will put Clarksburg well within 8" - 10" should it continue today.  this is truly incredible.  I do not fully understand the physics behind it but seems like the upper layers over 850 has cooled off significantly. 

Clarksburg  7:20 AM  SN    This is one for the textbooks 

Clarksburg,  7:00AM  SN-   it is incredible.   I picked up another 1.3" since 8:00PM Monday!!!  total will be tallied later in the evening tonight.

I-270 deathband

It is confirmed.  we are under a very heavy snow right now.  

Clarksburg, 5:40PM  SN+  just passed additional 2" mark since this morning and the intensity just picked up.  this is truly a big surprise.

Clarksburg  5:25PM  SN

Clarksburg, 4:15pm SN+  beautiful out there.  This storm is so localized.  Germantown folks are not getting the rates we have been getting since 1:00pm or so!

Based on the radar, FRK and MOCO is in great spot for the next yellow wave.

Clarksburg, 2:35pm  SN  added 1" to my total since 11:30am   with this rates I should have no problem getting another 2" to 4" by early evening.

Lol. This is seriously getting on my nerves. I'm not getting another 5" in Germantown. I'm at 2".

 

I have no idea how the models can be so bad. This model told me 18 hours from the event that I'd be getting 11" of snow. Throughout the event, it has continued to say "Oh don't worry, you're still gonna get 8 more. 6 more. 5 more."

 

That it can be so wrong, even NOW, mid event, after all that's happened so far... it just blows my mind.

 

Give me 2". Let me beat my December snow. Let me meet my minimum threshold for Capital Weather Gang's "bust" range (which I still haven't met yet, I'm only at 2" and they said it would be a bust at 4").

I am not sure how far your location is from Clarksburg heights.  We have flipped to moderate accumulating snow here. I hope folks in Germantown joins the party soon.

Clarksburg,  1:45pm  SN  

Clarksburg,  radar is not showing.   I am getting the best rates since the storm started  SN 

Clarksburg,  SN  accumulating fast
