    7.7” total. Not quite to 2” of sleet but should get there in another hour-ish
  2. WxUSAF
    7.2" total. 0.3" sleet last hour.

    Been wondering about this. Huge scale is going to push it up the NESIS scale.

    @wxmvpete spot on here with NAM getting the mix timing pretty well. But under doing precip before changeover.

    0.4" of (mostly) sleet last hour (seems like a lot!). 6.9" total snow+sleet. eta...need another 0.4" to mark my 3rd biggest snowstorm in 11 winters in this house. Top 2 (Jan 2016 and Jan 2019) are safe.

    Glad you said that. I didn't mean to clean the whole snowboard at ~920am, but then I sort of leaned on it and boom, it was cleaned off. But that was a reasonable enough time for the transition.

    @high risk your 13-14z call for the mix time was spot on. Was about 1330z for MBY. But this mix of sleet and needles is interesting. Visibility is way lower than normal for a predominant sleet precipitation event. I'm curious how this will accumulate. I think @csnavywx and @Terpeastwere suggesting we're getting snow to crystallize below the inversion to mix with the sleet that's coming from higher up?

    6.5” total. Sleet and needles

    We're in a little subsidence area looks like based on radar. Snow sounds icy against the window. Might go back and forth like the NoVA folks are getting.

    My daughter woke up, bleary-eyed looked out the window, and eyeballed “about 6”?”. Nearly to the tenth! The genes were passed along successfully

    If we can hold back the sleet until ~10am, it's going to be damn close. Past 10am and 8"+ is a near-lock.
  12. WxUSAF
    4.2" at IAD, 4.1" at BWI, and 3.3" at DCA as of 7am
  13. WxUSAF
    1.1" last hour. 5.9" storm total. Dumping.

    Someone wake up @Maestrobjwa to measure so we can end that discussion finally
  15. WxUSAF
    I was wondering this too. I think I'm going to clear at least half the board.

    4.8”
  17. WxUSAF
    4.8” official 7am spotter report

    Allan (Raleighwx on Twitter) said a lot of central NC stayed sleet most of the night. Maybe a glimpse at our future?

    Let’s all take a moment to appreciate that it’s 14 FREAKING DEGREES and puking snow
  20. WxUSAF
    Heavy snow meso #blessed
  21. WxUSAF
    By my 7am measurement, I think we’ll be very close to “fuck you nam” territory…yup.
  22. WxUSAF
    Eyeballing 4” with heavy snow. Small flakes but lots of them. Will measure and do a snowboard wipe at 7am.
  23. WxUSAF
    Waking up to check accumulation, flake quality, and rates
  24. WxUSAF
    Put down the tropicaltidbits everyone!

    @psuhoffmani definitely went the chickenshit hedging route. Leaned euro but hedged lower. So basically as long as 12z/18z NAM doesn’t verify verbatim (or worse jesusallahbuddah save us), I should be able to hit the low end range I gave. eta…RGEM deathbands us to hell before the flip. Such dark digital blue it’s almost black!
