    I’m tempted to have something to say about that, but after getting called out for being “too depressing”, I’ll just say that I’m soaking it all in right now

    Just went sledding with my daughter. Surprisingly good and fast! Happy to have gotten just enough for it and the rest doesn’t really matter

    That second January storm was the closest thing to cold smoke imby. Temp never got above 28 if I remember correctly

    12/11: 0.5” 1/1: T 1/6: 0.2" (sleet/snow mix) 1/15-16: 4.8” 1/19: 5.5” 2/13: 0.7” 2/17: 1.5” Season total: 13.2”

    Final depth measurement 1.5”, even though quite a bit has melted since it stopped snowing. Might have gotten 2” of total snowfall, but I went to bed after my first measurement. So, 1.5” goes into my log. Still a beautiful wintry scene, I’ll make a coffee and enjoy it.

    Still snowing heavily, everything is covered including pavement. May reach 2” before all done and I can go back to sleep. Looks maybe sleddable

    Didn’t take a pic of my measurement, but here’s the deck pic

    1.5” and snowing. 32/31.8

    Holding at 40, dews still 18-20.

    40/23

    No more model analyzing from me as per y’all’s request. My final guess for mby - 3” And sending good vibes with this. Good luck!

    Can’t deny the trends. I’m hoping for the best just as much as the next guy

    I do like this euro run, as well as the gfs. The CAMs are showing pretty different outcomes. It’ll all come down to banding, which I think is more likely to set up north near the m/d line

    39/18. If I get rug pulled (which is increasingly likely) it won’t be because of temps
  15. Terpeast
    That wasn’t my idea, it was 40/70 benchmark
  16. Terpeast
    Maybe I was right to call out the north trend yesterday. Hopefully the good radar out west means still good qpf totals on the southern edge (which I hate to be in)
  17. Terpeast
    40 now, dropping fast. Dews still 15
  18. Terpeast
    I’m right on the -9 line just inside the southern edge of the band 43/15 and falling

    For me, it's 0.5 vs. 0.3. Big difference. Either way, 3-5" is a reasonable forecast, or 2-4" if being conservative.

    I don't think DC proper reaches freezing at all, but outside of the beltway good chance of that. Either way, if we're lucky enough to get sustained rates for more than two hours, we should be good
  21. Terpeast
    Going by QPF it's 0.45" for both IAD and DCA with a local max of 0.58" near Frederick
  22. Terpeast
    Sfc right at freezing at IAD
  23. Terpeast
    NAM sounding with heaviest precip over IAD. West of 15 and north of 70 stay at or below freezing, though. NAM3k slightly colder based on wet bulb temps
  24. Terpeast
    Yeah, sticking with 2-4" for dc/balt, and N/W suburbs will make a run for the high end locally 5". No reason to change my first call despite the north trend (a lot of it is model noise) I-95 and east looks like they'll have temp issues at the onset, but then the rates should overcome that. Then it's only a matter of how long that lasts. N&W will have a longer window of heavy rates with freezing temps allowing for more accumulation I'm at 47 now, but dewpoint is 16

    That's what my wife said. She still doesn't believe it
