That’s no joke for these parts. Would truly enjoy a short video if and when it happens for anyone else.

Resonant thunder heard from miles out. I hope this first line just dumps.

Interesting. The mushrooms are indeed taking over. I’ve seen them in lawns (including my own) and parks that I never have before. Curious if anyone can speak to this.

This is ludicrous. Agree or disagree. Don’t disparage. Wtf man.

Say what you’re actually thinking.

Those balloons matter, and their absence is notable in forecast accuracy. However, the implication that their absence is a primary contributor behind lacking forecast accuracy should be revisited.

Glorious in N. Arlington. It’s been steady for at least 30 min, and dumping for the last 15. Heaviest of this particular storm right now. When clean gutters can’t handle the intensity, you’ve generally got a good thing… especially if you grow food. The intensity died down tremendously while writing that post - gutters functioning as intended. Hope for many more of these events. I prefer an inch over a few hours vs. over two days.

Gunnar never extended past the elbow in the attempt to tag. He likely thought it was a non issue and he’d get the call. Not excusing poor officiating, but the more this guy is thrown to adversity, the better for the team in the long run.

Solid B on the winter precip front. Depending on scale we’re talking 86/87 out of 100. Temps were simply phenomenal, and that started early on. If the dynamics of the late Jan storm were just a bit different, this winter would have earned a solid A in my book. In terms of winter weather as a whole, at least in northern VA, I say A-.

What is your gut feeling? The models are what they are. Some of this goes to straight historical knowledge. Genuinely curious as to your thoughts of the outcome at this juncture… what is your current read, if you had to give it? @TSSN+

Thanks for your technical analysis!

Not the most encouraging trend. To note, there does not appear to be great member agreement on the low placement. AI EPS agreement is much closer to the coast, with a few major outliers way far out to sea skewing the group.

LOUD precip at East Falls, really noticeable change in the last 15 minutes. Very impressive rates.

What is it seeing that makes it want to cut the northern edge precip down so much? Seems like this was a bigger drop than just noise. I see the answer above. Thanks, @Terpeast

Impacts… “slippery road conditions…” NWS doesn’t want to be caught with their pants on the ground.
