40 in DC, 7" in Philly, 4"in NYC 0", in Boston.  Seems legit, lock it up.

The 60 hour fantasy storm the GFS had last December was even better if I remember correctly.

MLK1!

Looks a little drier for us than 18z but still good. 

I'm thinking that the north trend is over.

SLP is in extreme W TN according to the 00z NAM at 78

High to the North is slightly weaker and NW of previous run.

Just now, jackb979 said:

Around what time does 00z euro come out again? around 1/1:30ish right?

Between 12:30 and 1.

Just now, BristowWx said:

Right.  More precip north of 12z

And slower.

I though the ICON was leading the way a few days ago.

CMC had the highest accumulations.

ALEET ALEET!  I don't even need to look.

Dr. No strikes again.

This could be the ultimate trap. Rockstar pattern in real time but a shutout with snowfall. 

This.  We need a hit to the north and east like the Euro says to complete the DC snowhole.

Low pressure in to Chicago...

Congrats Detroit.  Low goes right over DC at 222.

CMC is pretty good, but

CMC

Yep.  I'm all for snow, but when was the last time the CMC beat out the better models by itself?

That derecho knocked down so many damn trees on the Allegheny Front it caused me to get incredibly lost a couple weeks later on an afternoon hike about 5 miles northwest of Snowshoe. While I was hiking a week after the derecho a summer storm came up and sat right over me, I was instantly in the clouds. There were so many trees down with near zero viz it was impossible to follow any “trail”. 20 hours and 24 miles (mostly bushwhacking) and i ended up at my condo 15 miles from where I had parked my car to start the hike. When I started it was 72 degrees when I returned home it was 47 degrees (at 4 am on July 30th mind you) I was in a t-shirt and shorts. Because it was supposed to be a quick 3 mile afternoon hike I only brought a 20 oz. bottle of water with me. 

I'll never forget looking at that derecho radar and couldn't believe what I was seeing.  Then the whistling sound my doors made as the storm started.  I was thinking that you're missing the College Park F3 tornado of 2001, but you only said decade.

Breaking the tie in favor of Snowmageddon 1. That storm was absolutely insane - the fourth snowstorm I remember (3/1/09, 12/19/09, 1/30/10 being the other three). Power was out all through our neighborhood for days due to the heavy wet snow. If I remember it went back on briefly and was knocked out again by the second storm. Subdivision roads were blocked for at least 3 days and we had to stay in the basement because the rest of the house was freezing. I remember measuring 26" total at the end of the storm. Also I wasn't alive for the 1996 storm but even if I was I would probably still be voting for 2010. 

I was alive for 96 and voted for 96.  Come on, we need another tie here.  To be the top, you have to be snowing for 3 days.  Only 2 storms listed here have that.  Plus, we got another 6-12 inches on the Friday after that.  The date for the Blizz of 96 was Jan 6-8, btw. #weekendrule

Squashed

Trend is your friend

I would vote Snowmageddon Part I second behind 96, mainly because I lost power for 3 days and had to listen to the Superbowl on battery powered radio.  I would vote 3rd for January 25, 2000.  Any storm that busts high deserves high marks, even if we didn't get 20 inches of snow.  I remember hearing about getting pretty much nothing on the 6pm newscasts that night.

By 7:30pm, radar hallucinations turned into reality.  I remember calling my sister with these words at that point..."Go to the store now".

Bump because panic room discussion

I'd have to say 96 because we hit got another 8+ the Friday afterwards.  Great storm that just wouldn't end. After the smaller 2nd storm, the Laurel Safeway awning collapsed above me because of the weight of the snow.  

It just sounded like shopping carts crashing together, but I heard a scream. I got nicked, but nobody really got hurt.

You had to do the paper interview didn't you. Had to say big winter coming in the interview didn't you. I know who I'm blaming 

Nah.   It was me.  I had to move north for better snows.  What happens?  Historic storm hits South.

I laugh at the people that say "I'm out". As if their not going to look at the runs then next few days praying for a miracle. 

Winter Storm Cirrus to affect the northern mid-atlantic (per the Weather Channel).  Yeah, i'll be watching and hoping too.

Don't bet on a Fail. Bet on Washington DC and the greater Mid Atlantic Region will have a massively SNOWY winter, in 2018-2019.

Because it is in the cards and it is gonna happen. I read the tea leaves and Washington DC is gonna get destroyed by snow this winter.

One can only hope.  I hope I didn't jinx the 270 crew with my latest move.  I just wanted to witness firsthand at least the southern edge of a psuhoffman death band during a blizzard.
