For those of you despairing: Wait until the end of Febrruary.

In Virginia, Western Highland County. In West Virginia, Western Grant and Western Pendleton Counties. * WHEN...From 4 PM Tuesday to 7 AM EST Wednesday. * IMPACTS...Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning commutes. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow may linger into the day Wednesday.

WWA up for the far western ridges. (They can keep it, at least until my doctors poke me and I can stock up and snooze...)

IF the snowlovers verify, can I please get someone to shovel me out??

With the latest dewpoints at DCA down to 7... BRR! BRR! BRR! At least around DCA it's not sxxx or ixx. Today.

I would have busted if I'd had had the opportunity to post in time. IAD 10/31 BWI 10/31 RIC 11/7 BUT DCA 11/15 And the leaves go tumbling down...

It tumbled. NWS reports DCA hit 32 at 1800.

NWS reported DCA only reached 33. Looks like a freeze lock for tomorrow, though.

For you snowlovers: Please explain why you are forecasting more than two inches above climo.

I'm a warminista. Last year was a pleasant surprise ((for me)). I'm just wondering if the over-the hill- er over-40s- are as enthusiastic about sxxx as the younger ones are. I just forecast my perceptions of climo, trimmed a bit (have to be optimistic...)

You have a slim chance, but... NWS is currently claiming there are freeze chances for the mornings of 25, 26 and 28 Nov.

As a warminista, I loved last winter. But I suspect payback. SO: BWI: 17 DCA: 14 IAD: 20 RIC: 10 SBY: 10 (may it be much less again)

Not that odd. The Richmond airport is about 5 miles away from downtown. And it isn't on a major river. DCA is on a major river, and near the center of a big urban heat island. Just about all the local DC/MD/VA areas that stayed above freezing were "next" to the water.

NWS reported BWI hit 32 at 0720.

Heat advisory up for DC and points west.

Skywarn has been activated anyway.

The watch extends up past Philly to the western NJ suburbs of NYC. A couple of TOR warnings got issued for PA.

WSW up for the far mountains.
