Yes, us Penguins have a habit of losing games late we shouldn't be losing.

They are in the OT section

It was no thanks to the high wind warning. I've had enough wind. Snow and cold - yes please

No thanks Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 400 AM EST Wed Feb 4 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... Winds continue to trend stronger for the weekend with solid Wind Advisory (greater than 45 mph) conditions becoming increasingly likely everywhere late Friday night through Saturday with damaging winds (58 mph or stronger) also possible. && .KEY MESSAGES... - A potent winter storm with multiple hazards is likely to impact the region Friday into the weekend. && .DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1...A potent winter storm with multiple hazards is likely to impact the region Friday into the weekend. A potent upper trough and Arctic cold front are set to track across the region Friday into the weekend. A lead shortwave-trough ahead of the Arctic front will bring the chance of snow showers areawide during the day Friday with moderate to heavy snow across the mountains as upper trough digs and lift increases. Snow squalls are possible everywhere Friday night with blizzard-like conditions possible across the mountains for a short period of time Friday night. There will also be an abrupt onset of very windy conditions immediately behind the passage of the Arctic front late Friday night. Wind Advisory conditions are becoming increasingly likely late Friday night through Saturday with winds potentially reaching High Wind Warning criteria for a large portion of the forecast area given the magnitue of the 925 and 850 mb winds and favorable mixing during daylight hours. This when combined with rapidly falling temperatures will result in Cold Weather Advisories everywhere even during the warmest part of the day Saturday. Extreme Cold Warnings are also possible across the mountains.

Bncho already made one and its pinned

Afternoon AFD from LWX KEY MESSAGE 2...A potent winter storm with multiple hazards is likely to impact the region Friday into the weekend. A potent upper trough and Arctic cold front are set to track across the region Friday into the weekend. Ahead of the front, a leading shortwave trough quickly traverses our area during the day Friday, which could bring a burst of snow east of the Alleghenies. Accumulating snow along/east of I-81 will have to contend with more marginal temperatures in the low to mid 30s. However, the strong cold air advection and substantial lift in the DGZ could possibly overcome any marginal temps at the surface. Stay tuned to the forecast in the coming days for any possible impacts from snow on Friday. For the mountains, a steady period of moderate to possibly heavy snow is possible, with several inches of accumulating snow being noted in much of the model guidance. Additionally, the increasing winds will lead to blowing snow and reduced visibility issues. Snow squalls are possible Friday evening into Friday night as the base of the upper trough slams into the Alleghenies. This is a very favorable synoptic setup for upslope snow, though it is going to be short-lived as forcing quickly departs, and moisture is more limited due to abundant ice cover on Lake Erie and Lake Huron. As the upper trough digs right over our area Friday night, it is likely to induce a sudden onset of windy conditions, especially in the wind-favored climo areas (mountains & along/north of I-66). The 500mb height fields in the ECMWF and GFS show intense ripples within a very sharp gradient over the Appalachians - a signal that usually leads to mixing of stronger winds aloft with northwesterly downslope winds. Most of the guidance has wind gusts of 35-45 mph across the area, with 45-55 mph in the mountains. Higher gusts are noted in the ensemble guidance, thus Wind Advisories and High Wind Warnings may eventually be needed for parts of the area. Frigid temperatures return to the area for this weekend, with highs in the teens to 20s each day (maybe getting to around freezing in parts of central VA). Lows Saturday morning drop to the teens, then likely see single digits to low teens areawide for Sunday morning. Wind chills are going to be in the low single digits to -5F or lower each night, with -10F to -20F in the mountains. Interestingly, the GFS has a progressive clipper passing through on Sunday that could bring additional light snow, but confidence in that is very low given model uncertainty. Otherwise, dry and cold conditions prevail this weekend into the start of next week.

Not 67?

Idea is there on the 12z GFS for something mid-month as many have mentioned

Unfortunate on the 12z GFS on the 15th for most of us... Eastern Shore cleans up. Idea is there tbh as others have mentioned

There is a potential for hazardous commuting conditions for the Wednesday morning commute. A period of snow is POSSIBLE (a 30 percent chance) Wednesday morning across the Washington metro areas with up to an inch possible on area roads. If this threat does materialize during the Wednesday morning rush-hour, many roads could quickly turn icy. This could lead to dangerous traveling conditions, multiple accidents, and extensive delays. If commuting Wednesday morning, be aware of the POSSIBILITY of significant travel disruptions. Plan ahead by allowing for extra travel time, and consider using public transportation and telework options. Stay tuned for updates on this potential winter weather episode.

Interesting... 12z HRRR

Im taking the HRRR as gospel

I'll take a nice inch refresher
