12/5: 1.5” 12/14: 1.0” 1/1: 0.2” 1/17: 0.3” 1/25: 9.5” (5.5 sn 4.0 ip) Total: 12.5”

This was an exhausting storm to track

How they roll I guess. Assuming they just stuck a ruler in the ground close to the river.

Yes that’s correct. Apply usual snowboard measuring rules except in this case you measure at the flip, then add the snow + sleet totals

DCA 6.8 IAD 7.8 Spotter in Ashburn reported 9.8”, which is consistent with my 9.5” so that’s good to see I’m measuring it right Edit: ninja’ed by George BM

I wouldn’t sleep on this one. Right now ridge and trough axis too far east, but we said the same thing about today’s threat being too suppressed. Lots of time for things to change for better or worse.

On top of what we got today? If that panned out, counties might as well give up on make up days and people are gonna go stir crazy haha

Another inch of sleet had fallen since my last 8.5” measurement. Back edge about to clear my area. Calling it 9.5” total, 5.5” snow 4.0” sleet. Crazy storm

Tbh I was surprised the sleet line blew past us all the way to Harrisburg PA given the arctic airmass we got. I figured the DMV would mix so I gave them 4-8” with 6-10 in the NW suburbs, which seems to have done okay. But I didn’t have southern PA going to sleet just a couple hours after we did!

Credit where its due - 3k NAM got the thermals right, timed the changeover quite well. Whiffed on pre-flip qpf though.

Back edge approaching. Temp creeping up a few tenths - 16.7. Some freezing drizzle in the dry slot certainly isn’t out of the question. I’m expecting to see a thin glaze tomorrow morning.

Definitely a high impact memorable storm here, maybe just not exactly in the way we wanted it to turn out. But we ain’t going anywhere for at least a few days probably longer

I’m hoping precip shuts off as it crosses the mountains leaving us with only 2-3 hours left, and it stays sleet. Your numbers are similar to mine, maybe 0.5” less for me

Holding at 16. Still coming down, have not checked if there is any zr

8.5” total, 5.5” pure snow plus 2 inches of snow/sleet mix, and 1” pure sleet. Shoveling is brutal. I didn’t finish.
