Lol. That's exactly what mine looks like!

My wife did. I was like, "he looks older." My wife just replied "duh!" My wife noticed Jessica Alba. I didn't even recoginize Lady Gaga. I'm hopeless...

This. I had very little clue what he was singing, but loved the vibe and thought the set design was really cool.

I fully agree it looks best without the leaves. The silhouette it offers without any other significant trees around gives a very stark and almost haunted vibe. I live about a mile away and can't tell you how many times I've driven past and wanted to take a picture. I need to follow your inspiration and actually do so sometime.

Great shots! I know that tree well, and agree that it is very stately looking.

Ended up with about .4" in N. Bethesda

Steady light snow in N. Bethesda. Grill is getting white.

Apparently, the CWG team was spared, but most of the climate group is gone.

@Ian posted a link to this Google doc on Bluesky. Hopefully a sign they're leaving the Post soon: Stay up to date with the team behind Capital Weather Gang: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdm3NDIifn5oyaiA4MOlrst7jvXDBM8z_da6vuouaWGUmH0IA/viewform

Nope. He's been there so long, I actually forgot about him until now.

I laughed hard at this.

2-17 inches according to ILM! https://www.weather.gov/ilm/winter

Interesting snippet from LWX's AFD: Nothing has changed in terms of the pattern for a storm along the Eastern Seaboard this wknd. A 50/50 low & -NAO, Idaho Ridge, blocking over the Hudson Bay, and trough moving into the east Pac. Couldn`t ask for a better synoptic setup, but the formation of a storm remains in the details of this highly sensitive pattern. Latest guidance does reveal northern stream energy is a little stronger and further west/slower. Therefore, eventual ULL is slower to push eastward and slightly further west. This has resulted in a slight shift west in recent storm tracks. Will have to continue to monitor if this is a trend or noise. While the ceiling is certainly high for this storm, there is equally if not higher odds it just skirts out to sea. Future runs will have to be seen if this is a trend or noise. How the TPV evolves will be one of the biggest factors on if this storm comes to fruition or not and impacts land. TPVs are notoriously not modeled well given the source location with limited UA data. Therefore, expect fluctuations over the next day or so until the pattern is better sampled as associated energy is onshore across the western US.

Just keep posting. Just keep posting. Just keep posting.

MoCo closed tomorrow and Thursday.

Dr. Uccellini: "I'd rather be in Hamilton"

Tough one to measure. Snow depth was a pretty uniform 7-8 inches. It was 6 inches shortly after the sleet started. I think I'm going with 8.5" for a total.

SN- in North Bethesda.

It's been old for 20 years...

It started off as snow here, but has transitioned to mostly graupel. Areas with mulch and dirt are white. Probably safe to call it a .1", but haven't ventured out to measure. Temps dropped from 37 to 34 with the precip.

Snow and graupel here at 46 degress

That is awesome. Good work to you and @wxmeddler! Any details on locations?
