12/14/2025: 1” total to date: 3.0”

Fading daylight, temp 22, breezy with a windchill 14, ground covered in snow, Christmas lights beginning to illuminate…can’t think of a more wintery scene!

Here in the tropical shores of the Potomac at Ft. Hunt , VA, Just measured an 1.0 inch, sticky pretty snow. Winter wonderland. Trees and roads covered. Gonna be my total I think. Winding down and getting windy…gonna be a great day for a for a fire and watching football with lots a beer!

Thinks? It obviously did! The magic snow sled, hope you get dumped on!

Yeps! Exactly. Nice shots!

Gorgeous sunset, pink in every direction.

Let me tell you about the $1500 snow blower I bought in mid Feb 2010 and never used until 2014! Jinxes are real…and sometimes expensive!

I feel I have seen this movie a hundred times since I moved here in 1998…these redevelopment clipper things work out about 1/20 times…the last to actually work I think was in 2014…though everything worked out that year. If I was a betting man, which I am not, I would bet on snow north east along 95 from Baltimore, south of that nada….but F*ck it, we have been on a heater. Snow from Fredericksburg northeast along 95, 15 miles either side, the more you go NE.

Or doesn’t fall…

Ft. Hunt, Va 12/5/2025: 2.0”

Trees Glazing up quick down here. Got home fine.

Confirming sleet and freezing rain now here at the Mt. Vernon Rec Center, temp 31. Fun Stuff!

Doing something down here, at swim meet but my rain gauge detected something, rain rate says moderate and cameras are showing that it’s not fluffy flakes…maybe sleet is my guess or heavier freezing rain. Will know in about an hour.

Man, y’all went to some dark places reminiscing about those that could have been. The good news is with the improvement of the models we don’t get left at the alter as much…we get much more warning that we are going to get screwed over now!

I guess the angle of the cold worked out this time!
