I'd be inclined to agree with you on this assessment, given that we got an eventual .6" here within the last hour (vs. the 1-3" predicted 24 hours ago). But while I like to LOOK at the snow, I don't like to clean it up anymore...so I'm good.

Yeah. We probably got .5" here, but again, we didn't lose a whole lot of snowpack considering the earlier warmer temps/rain. And we got another week of hard winter incoming, so....

Looks on radar like you're about to get, or in process of getting, spanked, @CAPE...

So pretty on Mt. Crumpit...

35/31, heavy sleet. This is likely not "our" storm S/E of the 495 mixing bowl, but it rarely is these days. Again...can't bitch at all, cuz we made out well last weekend with an 8-9" snowfall.

35/31. Had heavy drizzle for past 2 hours, but just had a rapid switchover to sleet/rain mix.

35/31. Plain ole rain.

Admittedly, one of my favorite things this time of the year, is to see @yoda and @nj2va snipe at each other from their respective hockey corners...

Honestly ready for some swaying palm trees...after putting up with this white concrete shit for a week plus here in the (typically) winter pampas of SoFfxCo.

Regardless...we can't bitch that we didn't have a few weeks of deep effing winter in 2024-25. I'll enjoy a fresh coating of white tomorrow...which will be locked in as concrete for most of the coming week. Hate that part of it, but I know plenty here enjoy it. Currently, 41/31.

I like the profile pic change, @stormtracker. As the dude responsible for social media at my small org, I struggle to come up with new and exciting ways to engage folks on MLK's birthday on those platforms. Biggest challenge at times is to find/utilize a pic of the man that hasn't been OVER-used before...so, semi-stealing your pic to squirrel away for next year's posts.

Holy CRAP. Those are life-ending icicles right there. I'm noticing a fair amount of spouting ice-damming on our rear addition, which (unfortunately) receives little morning or afternoon sun from early Dec through late Feb. But we're certainly not dealing with THIS level of ice build-up nor any leaking. Seriously...do y'all have hard hats if you go out on that back deck to clean up??

Moderate SN, 29. Should be a nice refresher coat by sunrise.

Bring it home, Richmond gang....and plz post pics tonight and tomorrow morning! Very happy for y'all!!

It sucked shoveling that snow off of a driveway about half that size, both back in 2009 and this past Monday...primarily because I'm 15 years older than you. (My wife also gets that same look, post shoveling!) In fairness, neighbor few doors away did bring his snowblower by on Monday to help.

Really pulling for y'all in this sub for this coming weekend...I know this past Monday didn't turn out quite as expected.

Love seeing WxStar & IntelliStar jogging together...I was doing that earlier in the week.

Telegraph Road is one of the few major roads in our parts that has been properly plowed, and then only minimally...roads in our subdivision got their first (single!) pass late yesterday, IF that, but at that point they were barely scraping the top layer of multiple layers of compacted snow/ice set in place Mon nite. I'm the first one to honk if FCPS closes for the threat of a flurry, but this is the worst I've ever seen the roads around Hayfield post-snowstorm...I'll be legit shocked if FCPS doesn't close tomorrow as well.

Low of 21, winds picking up. No plows yet here, but someone was obviously doing donuts in the cul de sac...

Really pretty winter day and evening...enjoyed it all.

My storm total is right around 9" with this last go-round...which puts me right in the middle of the forecasted range. I'm good.

Oddly enough (for our corner of SE FfxCo), it's not really let up here since daybreak, vacillating between light to mod snow, and only had pingers in the 7-8am hour. Rates are picking back up again here.

27/21, -SN, sitting at 6.8" so far.

Set up Mon AM reports to run, stare out office window at +SN, download finished reports....rinse & repeat (for past hour).

5.5", 27/21. Was about a 75%/25% pinger-to-pixie dust mix when I went out to clean off the wx station at the top of the hour, but turning back to all SN as rates pick up again.
