it might...or redevelop early morning...hard to say

I know just want it to last…when you might not eat again for a while you want to fill up when you can.  It snowed all day and never hit 30.  Can’t complain really

0z HRRR is encouraging.  Starting to sniff out backbuilding that would keep most of us snowing until 1-2 am....N/NW for longer

I didn’t realize the end was 1-2am.  Thought it would go longer.

Probably approaching 3 inches now

Yep.  Just about that here.  2.875..close enough

Just drove up to the store. Real snow now.  The kind that blows on the roads.  Been a long time. 26

Sticking now finally.  27.  In fairness the ground was warm from recent warmth.  And the rates were shit all day.  Let’s see what happens.

Back to --SN

Roads are laughing at these rates (or lack thereof)

Sunset should give the snow some ammo.  I can see already driveway is slushy again.  Just hope the snow stays around long enough to capitalize on the temps and darkness 

Not worried and I am a sweater.  Better after 4pm I think the frontogeneis had the best lift this evening.  Sun will be down. This is way better than having the snow start at 4 AM unless it’s 10°.

Wow.  It did sorta push west a bit.

wait, you know something about this?

If they hadn’t changed the criteria from 4 to 5 inches we would have had one.  We were a snow town back then.  Now we get excited over 3 inches.

I think we're going to do this.

Who are you? What have you done with EJ?  He was out in December.  RIP #therealrealEJ

Nice little bright pink spot over Bristow/Gainesville.  Wake up Wonderdog.  I feel like he is napping by the fire.

I also like where we sit for the next round. Picked up 1.5 last night, pixie dust now

What it did was cool the ground off for round 2 the way I see it.  Can never have too much cooling…or beer.  Metaphor for life

Deep Winter Day, multiple Jebwalks planned 

This is a situation where we can do well.  If you look at that front gen map posted earlier W PW should see our predicted totals reached if not slightly exceeded.  My 2 cents from living here 25 years

If JB is right and we get a blizzard he will get  another 20,000 followers lol... i really dont know what hes looking at lol

I 95 corridor is long.  Maybe he doesn’t mean our part of it.  Did he mention the I66 corridor.  That’s my favorite corridor.

Just watched a car completely sliding down a hill in dc.  Amazing how bad the roads are with a half inch.  I think they forgot to treat them. 

They probably weren’t tracking that it might snow overnight.  The WWA didn’t get posted until like 4 am.  I don’t recall any brine yesterday.locally.  Unless I just wasn’t paying attention.

Radar shows nothing but it’s snowing

Yes moderately steady light snow that’s sticking

Maybe closure to an h and a 1/2.

Half inch here.  You must have gotten a death band.  Everything did stick. 24

First flakes here.  28

My gut 

3-5 tip aimed right at my back door.  You and my boss and my mother in law must have consulted each other on that map.

Still getting heavier and moving NW

I think there is still room for improvement…call me crazy

I'm more interested in the Miller B on the 19th somehow impacting our region.

You serious Clark?  Miller B…the B stands for ball buster.  IDK if I have the chops to pursue that scenario.  I’m getting old and impatient.  I should move to Buffalo!
