Happy July! The days are getting shorter

Heavy thundershower now in Jeffersonton. Nice background ambiance while cooking dinner

Crazy loud boomer here in Jeffersonton 

Guess i’ll go nuts and say we get some sort of crazy anomalous day:

DCA: 101

IAD: 103

BWI: 104

RIC: 103

Real cruddy drive from Alexandria back to Warrenton. Pouring rain with lots of standing water, when I first hit the line around Gainesville the wind was shaking my car a good bit 

B+ for me. The Jan 3 squall was amazing to be out and about in, and was about bulls-eyed for the two big regional events. Need 10”+er for an “A” grade, and would prefer the entire forum get in on the good vibes. Given the expectations going in however, Im pretty pleased.  

Was lighting up like a Christmas tree to my west earlier, good show for my evening walk

Anybody have important plans Thursday?

Shoot was gonna buy ANOTHER house

Down to ~ 6” after compaction, but eyeballing what fell after I measured 6.5” last night I think I got to 7”

6.5” the average measurement in my yard, could maybe squeak 7” accounting for compaction. Still falling at a steady clip. 

Just Ripping, SN+ 

Gonna take my first Jebwalk

Gorgeous drive home up 286, grass already dusted in Clifton. 31/29

29/26, the NAM did the best for my backyard 1/6 so riding it today

27/23 in Clifton. My last snow event in Fairfax county after 27 years, hoping for a good sendoff

Well to be fair with all of the 1/6 comparisons something that may be in this storms favor is better lift in the DGZ which really held 1/6 back from achieving much beyond its low end forecasts 

1/6 was a generally good storm for me but flipping to sleet around dawn was a real turd in the punchbowl. Still ended up with ~8” but would probably take an 5” all snow event without a big lull over it. 

Im suppose to close on a house the 13th so this is a lock 

Eyeballing maybe 5 inches or so out here  in Rileyville, too blitzed to go out and measure properly 

Big fat flakes, accumulating at 33 degrees

Sleet/rain mix now In Rileyville, 35

Staying at a cabin in Rileyville for this with about 1300’ of elevation. 34/31 waiting for the show to start 

I saw it asked earlier so apologies if I missed a response, how is it looking for start time Sunday? May need to adjust travel plans in the morning if precip is moving in pre-9am or so

Some flakes in downtown Warrenton 

~2” from the ULL. Calling a storm total of 8” 

Measured 7” just now in Clifton, with compaction maybe call it 7.5” on the day with mod snow still falling

Not much doing on the radar but a beautiful snow-globe outside nonetheless
