I don't know how much fell, but there's 1/2” remaining on the deck here (Silver Spring inside Beltway). Everything looks more wet than snowy.

No stickage on exposed surfaces here in SS/20910. Honestly the snow is more of a flurry at this point though.

First flakes trying to mix in Silver Spring now. 36.5 deg.

7:33 - it's now 37.0 and lightly raining. Awaiting the flip, expecting disappointment.

Unfortunately the MPING symbols popping up near the Beltway are rain, not snow ...

38.1 IMBY in Silver Spring. No precip is better than 38 deg rain.

Overnight refreeze is going to be a killer with this sun action and all the roof melt. 31.8 degrees IMBY. Beautiful day outside, though

Best snowflakes of the week right now. Not the best ever, but better than that sand from three days ago!

Ice is more of an issue today than Tuesday. I'm seeing 30.1 degrees on my outdoor weather station and the clouds are letting in enough sun that there's steady drippage from the roof line now. It's making some fantastic icicles but some nasty slicks on the driveway. Right about 2" of new snow today in downtown Silver Spring and currently its very, very lightly snowing

It's a Friday, though. The critical workers will be onsite no matter what OPM says and the less critical will choose to telework. I'm just not sure how big the Venn diagram is of OPM-covered employees who would stay home on a Code Red but will drive in on a liberal leave Friday.

Just reached 1" here near the MoCo/DC border. Light snow. Maybe 30 minutes left on this batch?

Even MCPS made the call early enough to plan for. Remarkable.

What's the point post-2020? "Your co-workers demanded telework privileges, so you better spend the day working your regular duties while it snows" is hardly exciting to wake up to.

It's 55 and sleeting in Silver Spring. What the heck.

Huh. There's a morning surprise! Probably only a quarter inch if I jam the ruler into the grass, but it's nice to look at nonetheless.
