  1. Ironically, our kids's elementary school had their tornado drill on Friday. They all thought it was really cool and exciting. (I recognize, of course, that others might feel differently.)
  2. Just a brief heavy downpour in that line (at least here). No wind or anything else besides rain.
  3. Some tropical rain here but nothing remarkable. This band seems to have weakened (at least in VA).
  4. Light shower and some breeze here in front of the line. 66/63. Our FCPS school emailed and said they would be dismissing as soon as busses arrive, even if before the 3-hour early window. Seems like they just want to be done with the day.
  5. Clouds have thickened up again here after some brief breaks around 9:30-ish. 65/63.
  6. I don’t get why anyone roots for severe storms. Especially in populated areas. There are real people with real homes whose lives could be upended. My hope is for a complete bust.
  7. I am in the skeptical camp on this one. Threat needs to be taken seriously, of course. But in my experience we fail at these setups even more than we fail at winter storm setups.
  8. Low of 26.6 Still a wintry look with the remaining patches of snow.
  9. It's either gone by sunset or gone just after sunrise tomorrow. Doesn't really matter. The real joy was watching the rates and seeing real accumulation just a few hours after overnight mid-summer warmth.
  10. Still a steady light snow here, just a few miles east of the county line. We definitely got the goods for the past few hours. Hopefully those to the east now also cash in.
  11. Just measured a very unofficial 1.0" on the car. Obviously less on the grass. But looks like more than 0.5".
  12. Getting close to a legit 0.1" on the grass. 33.8 degrees.
  13. Officially a car topper here. A few specks of white now appearing on the grass as well. 34.5 degrees.
  14. Some slushy deck stickage with heavier rates. 35.4 degrees. Also, surprising silence from that Eagles fan guy.
  15. Down to 39.9. Still a rain/sleet mix but more sleet now in the mix.
  16. 40.8 with sleet now mixing in Great Falls.
  17. Highs for the day at IAD and DCA are 76-77. Any accumulating snow would be impressive. That fact that it is very likely going to snow for a few hours, even without accumulation, is also impressive. In my view, that’s the proper benchmark
  18. Hopefully everyone recognizes that . . . but the 10:1 and Kuchera clown maps are a lot more fun.
  19. Positive snow depth change from the GFS. Still would be impressive given the circumstances:
