18z GGEM meteogram at DCA is just over 20mm of snow
That’s not good, that’s less than an inch of snow. Unless that is total qpf?

Had to be that one sunny Saturday in late June where I actually could use my pool without fear of being rained on.
On a serious note the wind event in March was tops, however the snow on March 21 and in November were cool, mostly because the day after those events I was traveling to the Caribbean the next day (a cruise in March and to the Cayman Islands in November). Weird to go from cold and snow to sun and flip flops in 24 hrs. I am accepting donations for a trip to Hawaii if anyone wants to contribute, I am sure the snow gods would reward us with a HECS the day before I was to leave!!

The time is coming...is it more painful to be in a shutout pattern or in a hey look over there it's snowing pattern?
But at least I could now drive over there, unlike recently where you would have to drive to New Mexico to chase snow....

7 weeks?
3 weeks....7 weeks....who the hell knows anymore....I think the Europeans are trolling the heck out of us with the EPS and weeklies.

It’s almost for sure wrong. When looking in 7 day chunks we go into consistent negative departures from days 21-28 on but it’s not enough to drop us to -10, especially given the other 21 days are all positive anomalies.It gives us the Day After Tomorrow in 7 weeks....

This Bonnie Raitt song epitomizes my relationship with this winter....since this is now the banter thread....
”I can’t make you love me”
Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don'tI'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't -

Can’t help but wonder if the heavy band coming up will help the storm advance a couple extra miles. But that’s weenie-talk, probably not how things actually work.
Works for me! Yellow band is like a freight train!

As far north to set up the MoCo / HoCo death band?
LOL! Not that far north! Steady light to almost moderate snow now here!

How far north does that deathband make it? Looks to be screaming north.

Starting with some light snow here in extreme south east Fairfax county (Fort Hunt area).

Is that the storm that we were supposed to get until it changed coarse at the last minute and went straight to NY?
No, you are thinking Boxing Day 2010. January 25 2000 was kinda like the situation we have now, was supposed to stay south, but decided to head north. Forecast went from partly cloudy to winter storm warnings and 12 inches of snow in about 6 hours. Ultimate weenie Hail Mary.

I figure we have another 84 hours until we need to start talking about January 25 2000.

If you want to see some good snow... turn on the Boise State/Fresno State game
No smurf turf tonight!

New and improved GFS almost happy hours us.

How sweet would it be to shatter the wettest year on record with 2 inches of snow equivalent!
