  1. I guess it’s time for a reminder that it’s only December.
  2. What you're really trying to say is that DC is the new Richmond...and I agree.
  3. You're probably not wrong. Forecasting clouds the day of can be a challenge around here.
  4. Just wait until we need a slow-moving 1060 high centered near Toronto to offset the additional UHI effects from the Monumental entertainment district in Alexandria.
  5. We've had some frozen crystals since, but we're definitely on a 2011-2013 run right now.
  6. There's also the typical folks talking about the typical folks lol. Jokes aside, I find the Euro control only going out to 240 to be a rational decision on their part.
  7. There's absolutely nothing to track on the latest GFS, though I do approve of the blue sky situation today.
  8. 12z GFS said, "The basketball courts will remain open", which is perfectly acceptable. I would like a snowstorm, though.
  9. We're not Charlotte, but we certainly don't need to move to Richmond anymore.
  10. Flood warnings just got issued in Moco. Haven’t seen that too often this year.
  11. In some ways it might be better to get rain now and snow later, given the antecedent drought conditions. Table is set for a snowy January…unless it rains.
  12. I think 2” is in play across the region. Now we just need this when there’s an arctic high building in from Ontario and Quebec.
  13. Looks like about 1/3" in the gauges so far.
  14. lol We'll get a TN valley to southern/central VA LP snowstorm track at some point.
  15. Satellite loop looks fun... https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/conus_band.php?sat=G16&band=GEOCOLOR&length=24 ...and so does WV... https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/conus_band.php?sat=G16&band=08&length=24&dim=1
  16. I wasn't too upset about this being a rainstorm until I saw that radar loop lol. We need to fix this snow issue.
  17. Just got a prolonged basketball sesh in before the wall of rain arrives. Light wind/humid...the hoopers understand.
  18. Gfs basically punts December, but that end of month setup is intriguing. We’re due for a NYE snowstorm.
  19. I was thinking the other day how, at least east of the mountains, we tend to snow 2-3 times in an ideal window of opportunity. It’s no different than in any season when we get into an AN or BN pattern for a couple weeks. We’re not very good at wall to wall winters with the exception of the 2013-2015 legends. Also agree re the Atlantic, which played into my snowfall prediction. It was a problem last year as well and may take some more time to become favorable.
  20. It’s either another storm trending east or because the Frederick water table is low.
