  1. Solid dusting on the grass and snowing steadily. 33/28. Pretty close to surpassing Sunday’s debacle.
  2. 35/25 with beautiful doomed snowflakes falling in Columbia
  3. 38/25 in Columbia. Sun actually came out a bit.
  4. Got to smell the sleet to get the goods? We’ll see I guess. This is a winter where you kinda just want to give up on trying forecast amounts. 40/25
  5. Ok obs time. Locking this. Someone has 5 mins to make a thread or I will.
  6. As long as those ECMWF marketing department checks keep clearing he’ll be ok.
  7. 925 and 850 stay below zero in DC going by the 6hr panels at least. Maybe it sneaks warmer near 8-9z when the NAM and RGEM had the mix line reach its northernmost point, but I can’t tell. Solid euro run for MD.
  8. Noon temps of 39 at BWI and 41 at DCA. Not bad and that’s probably the high with overcast skies now.
  9. I mean, precip starts in the western area by afternoon. Ok, let’s wait for the euro to fold like a cheap suit.
  10. Yeah, para notably colder tonight for the region. And wet! I’ll take it. Para looks a lot like @high risks WRF.
  11. lol who could have guessed the M/D line would get the most snow!?!
  12. I’m actually kind of glad for this overnight event lol. Should be snowing when I go to bed and when I wake up it will mostly be over for better or worse. No hours of stressing over radar and crappy snowflakes.
  13. I think because there’s a weak precipitation shadow just east of the mountains.
  14. RGEM looks like the NAM with (presumably) a 800mb warm layer poking up to around a Laurel-Rockville line early tomorrow morning. Kind of amazing how crappy our air masses have been this winter.
  15. Interesting, thanks. But given that’s downwind of us, would need to see if that impacts these short range forecasts over North America.
  16. I mean, I’ll take a euro/NAM blend right now quite happily for MBY. Is the WRF the one you said you liked on Sunday?
  17. Euro has definitely NOT been a locked in rock inside 72hrs like it used to be. I’ve seen people on Twitter speculate it’s due to the reduction of aircraft data feeding into it due to covid. But i figure that would impact all the models, so I’m not sure.
  18. It makes sense that if the first wave is stronger, it drags the boundary farther south where wave 2 rides along it. And that creates a screw zone where they don’t overlap. On another note, 3k NAM soundings look much improved for central MD vs yesterday when it was looking like a weaker wave 1. After the first hour or two of snow, there’s nice dendrite production for the whole event except right as the mix line pokes a bit north near 8z.
  19. Euro total cave to the GFS lol. That said, I like the model consensus for wave 1 for MBY way more than yesterday. Surprised wave 2 has crapped out, but given how fast wave 1 rejuvenated, maybe it’s not dead yet.
  20. Huh, some graupel here as well. Over performer!
