Do you see the little sig lines people put at the bottom on mobile? If so, I'll add my location there.

Back to mod snow in Germantown, still 30 degrees.

WOW! Jackpot for the area? Can you post a couple more pics of the yard?

Quick changeover to almost all sleet in Germantown. Radarscope precip depiction has the snow/sleet line at about DC so not quite accurate. Still a nice function though. Stuck at 30 degrees so it will be interesting to see how long it takes to get above freezing. Might get a decent ice crust.

Super: you live in Germantown or Gaithersburg? Your location has both. 28 degrees is a gooooooood temp. Never thought it would happen when we were 37 at 10 pm.

I'll be watching for those updates and comparing to Radarscope. My parents in northern Calvert are right on the border of green/blue and they do have a mix. Sleet just mixed in just NE Germantown, 30 degrees, 1"

Welp, MontCo gonna stick with opening 2 hours late - only ones west of I-95 looks like. They'll be glad they did because they only built in two (!) snow days for the winter. Mod snow now with no sleet mixed in. About a half inch.

CAD is a beautiful thing here. This one is classic (that map posted above really shows it). Snow in and around DC while its a rain/mix in the mountains of WV.

Moderate snow with large flakes and 31, coating on everything. Streets caving like FSU's defense. Montgomery County schools sticking to their two-hour delay.

She'll be in a great spot for this area though. I grew up in Calvert County which was purgatory for a snow weenie. Still a snow/sleet mix.

I like the way the changeover to snow/sleet is expanding SW-ward on Radarscope -- makes the CAD look good. Can't wait for the heavy precip to get here so we can have a couple good hours. (And legitimize me teleworking )

Light snow/sleet mix in Germantown and 33 degrees. Cars and rooftops whitening. Official cartopper?

WOW that is nice. My wife has a co-worker who lives there, and it amazes us how much snow she gets. She loves to text us snow pics - I expect a couple today. I'll reply with a pic of some wet leaves LOL. Just saw some teeny, tiny flakes coming down.

The heck's going out in Stephens City and Elkins?! Is it the CAD not deep enough out there bec. you're west? Thanks all for these ground truth obs -- I'm comparing with the precip. depiction on Radarscope to see how accurate it is. 35 degrees in Germantown, waiting on precip.

That's crazy. I was in New Jersey in the great ice storm of 1994 and saw 18 degrees and mod frz rain. Never had seen such a low temp before with liquid rain falling.

That was first freeze for me and it was a hard one -- 25 degrees. Instant death for my tropical milkweeds, lantana and other annuals.

Starting out November in mid/upper 70s? Our back windows are filled with the brilliant red and orange of maple trees. Look out the side windows and we see full green trees, verdant grass and a bloomed-out butterfly bush that still has a few customers.

I grew up in northern Calvert. Except for a once-in-a-while event, that place was terrible for a snow lover. I would love Topper's forecast to verify.

Need to mow badly. Choice between wet grass today or mowing in the summer heat tomorrow. I might do it this afternoon to avoid watching the Noles get their eyeballs beaten out by Miami.

1.8 yesterday and 3.7 since Monday. June: 3.9 July: 10.0 August: 6.65 September: 9.3

I was in a race against that thunderstorm to the Germantown MARC station (6:05 PM). We got there just 4-5 minutes before it unleashed. It was DARK as we rolled in and people tensed up and reached for their helpless umbrellas thinking we were going to get hosed bad. Thanks to good ol' Radarscope, I knew we were good. It hit HARD as I was driving home. Had one CTG strike hit just a few hundred feet from the house just as I walked in. It was cool seeing on that Real Time Lightning website right where it hit, two streets over. Picked up 0.7 and have 7.5 for September. My foot slid and made a big divot just walking in the back yard to the rain gauge.

Sunny with highs in the low to mid 70s for several days straight starting Saturday? I will have to see it to believe it, but man it would be glorious.

48 hours ago I was 95/72 and 24 hours ago 88/70. Now 63/54! Picked up 0.75 last night.
