There was a clipper on 1/8 that dropped 1-2" and then really nothing until 1/30-2/10 and after that snowfall was pretty much done. Epic winter all in about 3 weeks, hopefully our benchmark of right around 1/20 this year works out.

dropping in from MA forum....will be in Scranton for the holiday. Dec 21-27, hoping some flakes fly and it may just happen.

We are at 6.4” and the snow actually just picked back up, and it’s all snow again after mixing with a bit of sleet for a time. Great storm down here

Yeah, I’m up to 3.7” so far, feel like 6” is attainable, if not more. Buddy of mine in Caroline is closing in on 8”

It is wild in that band here in Stafford, picked up 1.5” in the last 60 minutes

It’s puking snow in that band at the moment t in Fredericksburg/Stafford and as I type this Stafford was just upgraded to a Winter Storm Warning

Looking forward to getting into this band rotating up toward Fredericksburg.

Exit 133 just North of Fredericksburg, that’s my exit. Snowing pretty good here, about 0.2” so far

Light Snow around Fredericksburg, 31/21

Thanks....this storm is frustrating and entertaining all at the same time

Where do you get the meteograms of UKMET?

Winter Weather Advisory up for Spotsylvania, Stafford and Fredericksburg for 2-4 inches

True.... I’m still not sure what to expect around EZF to be honest

Agreed

Good deal! Think CHO is in a pretty good spot!

All for another 50 mile shift North, feeling alright around EZF. CHO looks pretty good too, you still there or back in Arlington?

It’s been a great model day around EZF, but that ain’t ground truth. Will believe it when there’s snow on the ground

And like 0.7” for mine, that’s a crazy shift

Feels a little like January 2010 a bit. I lived in Arlington then, went from like pity flakes to 6” 24-36 before. I’m in Fredericksburg now, wonder what happens this time. Every model run im more and more invested

Yeah, it upped amounts around EZF quite a bit

Saw that, hoping we can get to advisory type stuff around EZF. 18z NAM looking ok so far.....

Wow, quite a bit North

Yeah, waiting for the Euro to confirm this isn’t all fantasy. I don’t think it’s too far from a low end Advisory type deal in EZF, but still preparing for Heavy Flurries. Knowing how close we are is the toughest part of this whole tracking episode

Do you have a pic?
