CWG saying flakes could breakout between 12 and 2 in the N and W suburbs of DC lol

It just did

Saw this and wondered if this would affect the radar readings tonight https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=lwx&issuedby=LWX&product=FTM NOUS61 KLWX 160133 FTMLWX Message Date: Dec 16 2019 01:39:27 KLWX IS EXPERIENCING CALIBRATION ERRORS THAT ARE CAUSING IT TO READ AROUND 20 TO 25 DBZ TOO LOW. TECHNICIANS ARE LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE AT THIS TIME.

Decent hit? Lol... it's a crushing in SNE ETA: misses NYC too lol

I'd say 00z Euro was a step in the right direction if we want a storm next weekend

Lol congrats on the 00z Euro

Here is 00z UKIE at 120 and 144

00z GFS coming in a lil colder at 36

00z RGEM says its snowing at DCA from around 08z to around 13z MON

00z 3k NAM looks colder than the 00z 12km NAM FWIW

lol the 00z 12km NAM snow map is hilarious

00z NAM at 45 (21z MON) says frozen precip still ongoing in C MD/N VA/NW VA ETA: Still frozen in NW VA at 03z TUES lol

06z ICON also pushed south as well... gets snow or frozen into N VA and DC metro from 06z to around 15z MON 32 degree line sits in N MD till 06z TUES

Both NAMs moved south again at 06z... 12km NAM more interested than the 3k NAM with the frozen precip... 12k NAM run likely overdone but pretty nice for MDers

00z GFS has a large cutoff h5 low Day 9 into Day 11 off the coast of CA lol ETA: still there Day 12

00z CMC came south some... delivers some frozen precip to N VA/MD Monday morning

You can tell there has been a south shift (or maybe it was just better press of cold air) on the 10:1 snow maps (yes I know they suck) when you compare the 12z 84 map to the 18z 78 map and then to the 00z 72 one

00z GFS has a better cold press it appears at 12z MON with frozen precip into C VA... but quickly warms to rain for all by 18z MON

00z 3km NAM through 60 has a snow band cross into W and C MD early Monday morning... and then thats it as the run ends

00z NAM laughs at everyone as it shows... nothing... maybe a quick band that blows by into PA

Just look for the blue and green combo... thats the 0C line

I remember that.... but I had my weather radio handy that night next to me. I had no idea about weather boards or internet yet... i was in 8th grade... i remember hearing all the forecasts about how we were going to get only a dusting in DC if we were lucky and I think it was Bob Ryan on NBC at the time at like 6pm was like its going to be close, but not this time for us... i went to bed with my weather radio next to me listening to it over and over hoping something would change... then the tell tale "beeeeeeep" noise that came on when a warning was issued... i believe the first warning issued by LWX was for 3-6/4-8 inches... i remember running downstairs to tell my dad and he was like uh huh sure... sure enough, 11pm news came on and there was the huge changes in how much snow was forecasted for us and the rest is history lol I was in West Springfield in Fairfax County where I still live at the time

Just surprised people would be drinking already at 8 am lol

12z is a little early to be drinking lol

A cold rain thread? Looks like an i70 and North threat tbh
