Kink in the line is heading for La Plata/Waldorf from Dumfries.

The storm coming into Charles County looks to be intensifying, and has some rotation.

Tornado Emergency issued

Final total of 5.0" here and a 6 to 1 ratio. Nice event.

Pouring snow for the past 90 minutes!!! Glorious, all surfaces are caving.

All snow now and large chunky flakes in Charles County, agree with diatae^^^^

Snow is mixing in now here in central Charles County

Norlun from Frederick through Springfield to Waldorf would be awesome!!!! Event with such details and bands of snow that will boom and bust over such short distances

President's Day 1 Blizzard in February 1979 here in southern MD is the gold standard for winter storms......bar none. Extreme rates, surprise factor, massive drifting, low temperatures. That storm had it all. This one isn't a cold storm. But it could be a wet paste bomb.

27 degrees and steady freezing rain here between Waldorf and LaPlata

Avoid the potential devastating freezing rain event and then let's enjoy the big snow-sleet/mix/severe cold.

Steady light snow and cars being topped and mulch/grassy areas starting to whiten.

Flurries/light snow with small flakes at the moment.

I can confirm some sleet and freezing rain in Charles County under very light returns.

Actually a couple miles south of Waldorf.

A short burst of sleet here for the past minute.

It's 76/57 and quite breezy/windy(15-G30ish) here in Charles County as well. I'm sure the higher elevations are gusting quite well ahead of this system.

Looks like some are going to see training storms in the DC Metro from NW to SE.

Showers and heavy thunderstorms are certainly scattered across the risk area. Some training bands have formed. Looks exactly like the forecast discussion from LWX this morning where they said the heaviest rains were possible but not everyone will get rain or heavy rain totals. The WPC expanded the Moderate Risk for excessive rainfall down along the I64 corridor through Richmond and Williamsburg area. Certainly some focus to south central and central Virginia that may not have been as evident this morning, but it is high octane air and along a stalled front.

Weather Prediction Center has much of our area east of the Blue Ridge and north of Fredericksburg in a Moderate Risk for excessive rainfall today.

Was any rotation, or rising motion visible?
