  1. So it looks like Sleet storm + 6" of snow was the right forecast for MoCo. Guessing we end up with 6-8 inches countywide of snow and 2-4" of sleet. Single digit and teens lows for the rest of the week, and glaciated ice piles everywhere. When do you think MCPS reopens?
  2. 6" of snow, cleared off around 8:00 AM Now 1" of sleet on the snow board. Just cracked the 1" mark.
  3. Welcome to team sleet bombs are fun. It’s a fun team to be on. Everyone else gets grumpy and you get some enjoyment and wonder.
  4. I cleared my snow board an hour ago and now have 0.75" of sleet and so much more to come in Gaithersburg.
  5. Sleet+ in Gaithersburg. I truly think we break 3" of sleet before this storm is over, with an outside chance at the 4" the NAM predicted.
  6. It’s a veritable sleet storm in Gaithersburg. It’s so loud.
  7. 6” in Gaithersburg, just flipped to pure sleet.
  8. Looking at the plow lines and little hills of snow that line the road and there is no way cars are going to be able to get out when we transition to sleet and a bit of ZR. This is gonna be a hilarious glacier event.
  9. Snow is HOLDING ON in Gaithersburg. I see that SN/Sleet line in Bethesda. You better STAY over there hahaha.
  10. Like I said before, the sleet storm we got in 2017ish blew me away and turned me onto sleet. When I watched a car literally turn into a see-saw trying to back up over a plowed sleet pile, and watched how cool sleet accumulation looks, I was 100% sold. It also helps I live in a neighborhood that shovels for me with a local contractor. So I don't have to shovel it myself lol.
  11. Gaithersburg 5.5" of snow, SN+ right now. No sleet. Some mix between rimed snow and regular snow. We'll definitely get above 6, may even reach for 7-8 depending on how long that sleet can be held at bay.
  12. This will be me when we transition to sleet. I want 5" of glaciation. I want more sleet accums than snow accums. lol.
  13. Back to heavy snow in Gaithersburg, no sleet, CC lines moved back south quite a bit from us!
  14. It’s weird. I wouldn’t call what we have sleet here in Gaithersburg right now. It’s regular big flakes and then some rimed snow that’s very much accumulating. we are under CCs too.
  15. 5” in Gaithersburg and heavy rimed flakes falling now.
  16. Just a little hopium for my NW of DC friends. NAM's recent run for 12zSun has the snow/sleet line significantly kept at bay compared to the "bad" runs 24 hours ago for 12zSun.
  17. Cool! And we want that wedge to hold as long as possible right?
  18. What on earth is going on with those CCs? I’m sure people who are much more knowledgeable can explain. Looks like the sleet line has a big hole in it. Anyway. SN+ right now in Gaithersburg. They’re plowing snow into piles right now that will be glaciers later today.
  19. The good news is the sleet line has a very solid thump or two of snow ahead of it.
  20. If I’m reading the CC correctly, sleet line just out of Charlottesville. Just popped up.
  21. This is the finest sandiest snow I’ve ever seen accumulate. Also the roads are already caved in Gaithersburg.
  22. I’ve been in many snow holes but this one is pretty funny.
  23. I might just take a nap so this snow hole goes away.
