Confirmed. These bands pivoting in off the Atlantic into S NYC AND the NJ hook are prime. I chased up to the Jersey coast just south of Staten Island. Double digits are imminient

That storm is just pumping potent snow bands right into the shoreline! Just imagine if you can, that this puppy were to stall out for about four fun filled days!

I'm definitely noticing a big change in thr snow in the past 20 minutes. It's really blowing around. The low is really cranking and cooling the column. 

Radar is showing band after band after band after band emanating from the developing low right up to you.

We got lotta more, lotta more. You're gonna get destroyed

There's TWO NORLUNS?

I am in Dale City and I got NORLUNNED TWICE! 

Hear that? It's the sound of pure bliss for snow enthusiasts.  The welcome sound of tires spinning futilely in rapidly-deepening snow!

It's beginning to be a smoke show here in Harrisburg del. Headed out for a jebwalk right now. The guy at the front desk already thinks I'm a weirdo. 

Dude- "Why does that guy keep going outside and wondering around the parking lot? Is he looking at the street lights? Wtf?

They'd REALLY think I'm a super weirdo! I'd be singing ELO tracks out loud.

Yeah, best I stay in South TX ftw.

Anyone who doesn't know what caving means with respect to snow, it means enough snowflakes have fallen on a surface, such as a road, to make it look white.

Magnolia 

33F

Moderate snow

Might have to celebrate in the hot tube when the blizzard conditions start. Was going to wait till my retirement in May.

Grey Hat you look to have 3 inches on the ground already!

I just arrived at my hotel in Harrington Del. I'm shocked at what's already going on here. It looks like about 3" otg already and it's coming down good. I had to flip into four wheel drive about 20 miles outside Harrington. LFG!

Get ready for Brobdingnagian amounts of snow!

You guys are going to get demolished. Jealous. Enjoy!

Yeah, JakkelWx is going to get absolutely annihilated by Brobdingnagian amounts of snow!

Usually it's the Eastern Shore eating slush, rain and mangled flakes. Not this time. This time it's places like Del and NJ and the Coast all the way up into Canada that are The Places To Be!. All the way down the Eastern Shore to the mouth of the Bay, for that matter!

Good to see the Eastern Shore for once getting smashed by snow tonight/tomorrow. I've seen some of those forecasts. Wow 24-25 inches of snow, wind driven by up to like 65 mph winds? That's a World-Class Blizzard!

You know things are starting up with the storm when the posts are coming on this board so thick and fast that I can't even keep up lmao

I'd suggest, Get a tablet

NWS. This is a very polite respectful request. I know all I am, is an overexcited snow weenie. No chops. Just way too much emotion. It's wrecked my life. But all I ask, is for a Winter Storm Warning for southeastern Prince William County, and maybe all the other counties around it. Please. This is an extraordinary storm. You know it. I know it. Let's just do it. They ARE going to get 5 inches of snow with this.

Trust me folks, it has been brought to my attention.

This storm has unbelievable potential.

Expect earlier than expected progression of rain to snow across the area, AT THE VERY LEAST. Expect strong development of a snow shield with time. It's not just the coastal. It's another system over the Great Lakes. That system is going to combine with the developing coastal low, with very fun effects for parts of the DMV. I noticed this from radar, both the last 12 hours as well as extrap over the next 6 to 10 hours.

You guys are in for a treat. I am in south Texas but I am now so damned overexcited that I want to scream this from the housetops, until I am fooking HOARSE!!!

https://cyclonicwx.com/radar/us/ This shows that as the coastal develops and moves northward, it will pull the rain/snow line south very soon. Accumulations may ensue a bit earlier than expected for many.

You can see the Great Lakes system interacting with the developing low near the OBX https://cyclonicwx.com/radar/us/

Once those two get together and party = obscene snow weather in the DMV then points north and east.

Precip over NC/VA and the overall DMV is just fascinating to watch as the coastal develops and the system over the Great Lakes interact. This is the kind of meteorological mayhem that finds its way into papers later on. I don't have the chops for this, but someone like Millville or Terpeast is probably gonna do an exemplar writeup about the way this entire system is developing. We are living history right now.

Looks like the short term are seeing the norlun here. It seems to have shifted east since last night but was about there on the Euro as well. 

Are you kidding me? Dale City is gonna get a Norlun? We're talkin HISTORIC times.

Lots places in DE/NJ once you get inland are forecast to get 18-25 inches, along with some strong winds.

Man DailyLurker, I envy you with all my heart.

Headed to the Catoctins for the first leg of this chase. I'll be at Salamander Rock checking conditions above 1500'. After that? Delaware. 

DE/NJ gonnabe incredible conditions, very heavy snow driven by very high winds. You are about to have the times of your life, except for your adventures on The Tug. You are the Indiana Jones of winter storm chasing, lol.

Question is does it just sort of flip from N/W to S/E and then stay all snow (even if non-accumulating for awhile), or does it pulse back and forth and be rate dependent during the middle of the day before a flip to snow for good mid-late afternoon?

You guys are going to have a very good storm with this. This is going to be very fun. Good times.

Changeover will come earlier than progged for many of you. That swirl in the Great Lakes is going to combine with the developing coastal low and bring some heavy snow to many of you. Many will be pleasantly surprised.

Man I wish I was in New Jersey where 24 inches of wind driven snow is imminent. It would look very Mammoth-ish, driven by 65 mph winds.

If I were there right now I'd be makin a road trip to DE or New Jersey. Man that place is gonna get demolished! Those high winds blasting snow is gonna make that place look like it is getting Mammothed.

My only question now is what time should I start my jebwalk tomorrow?

When the rain is changing to snow. Get headphones and blast every track that reminds you of past snowstorms. Watch the dendrites blow right past the streetlights!
