Thumppin Baby! Almost 8" around FXBG good stuff. Juicy...... 28/13

The WAA drying up would be a tough pill, all along it has looked pretty decent for Charlottesville and decent over toward Fredericksburg too. Hoping to squeeze 5-6” out of it and whatever happens after that. Haven’t really had time to check any models, might be a good thing.

Haha you know things have gone to crap around here when there’s been 27 minutes between posts in the main thread for this “storm” 24 hours before it’s supposed to begin.

I think 53 and 240 should have forecast contest, each can make ridiculous comments that are are off the wall awful, and the winner gets a box........

Ahh got ya, I'll have to find the tweet/follow his twitter handle. @mappy yep, there it is, thanks for the info on a good new twitter follow. https://twitter.com/stormchasernick/status/1354822836267798528?s=20

A buddy of mine sent it to me earlier today, but yeah I'm sure it's on twitter too, it's comical.

That would be great, but I’m not holding out hope. This comes to mind.....

Yeah, I know suppression was talked about a whole bunch, and for a while things moved South, but having lived near Fredericksburg now since 2009-2010 pretty much, I've come to know what usually happens and that's that the CCB pummels NE MD and North of here in general, so I'll take my Snow on the front end and be happy. #JuiceUpTheWAA

Yeah, I have been following that. I've been hoping to get the WAA part as juiced up as possible, in EZF we get back side lovin as frequently as the Flyers win the Stanley Cup

I love when the South Central PA guys come to our sub-forum saying how the GFS looks just awesome for everyone.....**checks notes**.....oh right the GFS shows 25" for you and I get stuck with an 8 incher....not that I'm complaining.

So the CMC wants to go for a nip and a tuck, yet this is what it looks like on the GFS

I think @yoda is seeing it here: https://collaboration.cmc.ec.gc.ca/cmc/cmdn/pcpn_type/pcpn_type_gem_reg.html

LWX AFD Update at 9:00 PM .SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/... 9:00 PM UPDATE: No change to the previous forecast at this time, but some increase in expected snow totals may be necessary in the next shift. Model guidance continue to increase in confidence of 4-7" for most areas along and west of I-95, with the higher end of that starting to look a little more likely. Would like to see another round of guidance before bumping things up just yet. For now, see the previous update and discusison for more detailed thoughts.

Oh good 240 is back and I need a 40

Appreciate the EZF love Yoda.....know what usually happens down here. A warning level storm will be great, any CCB love would just be a bonus!

I take it your in Lynchburg this evening. Hoping to score a coating up around Fredericksburg and then take our chances with whatever happens on Sunday/Monday

9 posts and I’m sure 8 of them at least are cringe worthy eta: goes back to what @leesburg 04 said....when you see the last lost is from certain posters best to not even open the thread

It’s really excruciatingly frustrating, and I don’t get it. Every time I see a panda picture I shiver......

Fredericksburg falls in the “screw zone” on the 18z GFS and still gets ~6” so yeah it’s nice and it’s moving a certain way....I’ll take that!

No doubt, even down here in EZF. Sleet is part of the game to get big snow

Sleet making it into EZF is no big thing, that usually happens when we have a big one and is the cost of doing business around here. EURO looks good!

Heavy Sleet with a bit of rain, 32.7, deck, walkway, yard and cars covered with sleet
