Yeesh lightning strikes and thunder....what's the rule in winter snow 7 days later?

Heard the thunder 

I was just talking with my wife about this the other day. I remember going to bed thinking we weren't getting much and woke up to 20"+. I was living in Takoma Park at the time and we had windows in the front of our apartment that were low to the ground and the snow came half way up. It was glorious...I was already a snow weenie because my mom was one but that storm solidified it. Good memories

I'm in the area this weekend for a volleyball tournament, "dusting" at the hotel in Alexandria and slightly heavier "dusting" at the DC convention center. I brought the Raleigh luck up here with me. You're all welcome pls don't ban

Oh god I remember that presidents day volleyball tournament when my daughter played. The nonstop whistle sound is still in my ear. Good luck!

If you somehow didn't know why it takes less time to fly home from California then it does to fly to California this storm should help explain it...hauling ass

Nah, it's not canceled.  Some of us are just being realist for the city.  Folks will do well in the favored areas still.  Storm is def not cancelled.  I'm speaking for MBY.   And 2 would work for me.

I don't know boss between chuckles and terpeast the storm

1. was never modeled

2. the rug got pulled

39/18. 

If I get rug pulled (which is increasingly likely) it won’t be because of temps

It might be time for you to go to bed and stop model watching. You're kinda depressing

NBM seems to be ingesting the latest trends.

I know this sounds dumb but 2-4" would be a little disappointing out this way but I'd take it in a heartbeat

For weeks I’ve mentioned 2/24/24 sounded great, well it’s a day early but we’ll take it. Careful though could just be the medium/long range euro going bonkers as usual

Ok i will be careful thank you

I look at precip output VS. type on theae models. Looking for trends and not exact amounts is the way I treat them. 

And then you take the most negative spin you can come up with and post it.

i mean our neighborhood backs to route 15 until you and Dave johnson moved out! Poor Dave!

You are basically a mile or so from Western Loudoun as am i down here. I'm as close to 15 here as i was up there.

Leesburg is not in eastern Loudoun so i consider myself under a warning

Technically it is but we are both close enough, I think if you walked to the old West Park golf course that is considered the start of western loudoun up by you and if i walked a few feet to my west I would be in western loudoun. So close enough i suppose.

NAMs always thrill or disappoint there is rarely a middle ground.....this particular run for MBY....i feel like i just ate some vanilla ice milk that was out of date....good thing i was hungry.
