  1. 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!
  2. Can’t deny the trends. I’m hoping for the best just as much as the next guy
  3. 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
  4. 39/18. If I get rug pulled (which is increasingly likely) it won’t be because of temps
  5. 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)
  6. I’m right on the -9 line just inside the southern edge of the band 43/15 and falling
  7. 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.
  8. 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
  9. Going by QPF it's 0.45" for both IAD and DCA with a local max of 0.58" near Frederick
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. That's what my wife said. She still doesn't believe it
  13. Surprised to see the warning get expanded east to include mby. 4-6" forecast. East side of IAD 2-5".
  14. Besides there's only 12 hours left. Not a whole lot of time left for big shifts
  15. Yes, this has trended north, but we're still in the game. If I lived 30 miles south of DC, I'd be sweating it though
  16. They're probably rolling their eyes at us now (and I don't blame them lol)
  17. That's my wag. I called for 2-4" dc/balt metros and 4-7" far N&W, and don't see any reason to change that. I'd love to get 5" out of this, though!
  18. Western loudoun is either/both higher elevation and less populated than eastern loudoun, so it makes sense they hedged with a warning there. It's also a saturday morning, so that's probably why they went with a WWA east loudoun even though they're forecasting for 3-5" locally up to 7" imby. Had it been a weekday, they would have gone with a warning.
