  1. Unlike GoT winter never came.
  2. IMHO, this is the first day this winter that it feels and smells like snow. Can I get an AMEN?
  3. FYI: My bet still stands. If it snows deep enough to shut down Metro, I send Randy $100 for AW. Can't remember when I paid the last time.
  4. Can someone post a picture of white rain? Asking for a friend.
  5. I thought the board had a strict policy against posting porn?
  6. Um, that would be the case on a beautiful day in June.
  7. Snowing moderately in west Alexandria/Annandale.
  8. Looks interesting, if the hype pans out: IBM Global High Resolution Atmospheric Forecasting System
  9. Thx, been trolling AP but it's frankly boring. I'm ready for some serious snow, so I'll lurk and read what the Smartguys think.
  10. I consider bacon a condiment. Just saying . . . .
  11. I'll be on the Danube the first two weeks of December, cruising from Munich to Vienna. I bought my first pair of L.L. Bean Duck shoes in anticipation of snow.
  12. Glad you are ok. Does your snowmobile have an emergency pack? I love snow but the older I get the more respect I have for it - especially when it's over a foot.
  13. Snowing nicely in Annandale. Starbucks parking lot covered.
  14. I got about an inch. It was quite beautiful as it fell. Very peaceful. IMHO, I'm ok with these small events. Reminds me of a conversation I had with a rabid Nats fan. He was complaining that the Nats are clueless about playing 'small ball' to win games. They are always going for the spectacular home runs. The snow weenies here are like that (me included). We want the HECS every time. But what's wrong with a dozen 1-4" snows? I say Bring Them On!
  15. My $100 bet is still on for this storm. 8"+ and Metro shuts down.
  16. Although folks are reporting 8”+ Metro is running without incident. Looking forward to the next opportunity.
  17. I've put my checkbook away for now, but for every snowstorm predicted to deliver accumulating snow and actually delivers 8"+ and shuts down DC Metro above ground, AMWX gets a $100 check.
  18. Little River Turnpike at Braddock Road (near Annandale) was completely covered when I drove back from a party. Side streets are all white. Moderate snowing. I'm happy.
  19. OK, I'm putting my money where it counts. If this storm produces 8" or more in the DC metro area and Metro closes above ground tracks/stations, I will write a check for $100 to A/W. Bring it!
  20. Mappy, FWIW my criteria for a great snow is 8”+. Metro shuts down outdoor tracks at 8”.
  21. Thx for sharing. So glad you are on the mend. I don't post much because I'm busy reading your posts - they help me to understand what's happening and why. And thx to the rest of the snow-loving crew. Your knowledge is terrific, and I love the drama and the scant few victories we all enjoy.
