  1. Looks like the GFS also has a few tenths more snow after 9z.
  2. RGEM looks a bit colder but also less QPF overall than 6z. At least through 78.
  3. To be fair, I am not sure that’s what the AFD says. It says ratios start at 15-18:1 and trend down to 7-10:1 over the storm. Depending on the initial thump that could well average out to higher than 10:1 over the full storm. In theory, Kuchera should capture this but we all know that it is far from perfect.
  4. Slightly OT but the ZR numbers on the GFS for north Georgia are incredible — 2-3 inches around ATL and much of it falling with temps in the mid-20s
  5. Old Farmer's Almanac agrees that we're cooked: Jan 25-26 Rainy, milder
  6. GFS 10:1 maps show 12-14 inches for most of DC area. (Sorry if already posted . . . I only saw Kuchera images.)
  7. Had to drive to Sterling for kid sports. Steady graupel here as well.
  8. Beautiful execution. 10/10 (or 6/6).
  9. Remember when 1/2 of this forum cancelled winter back in October?
  10. I wouldn't call the 12z GFS or Canadian OP a torch for Christmas. Haven't seen the Euro yet. We are also still 9 days out . . .
  11. Getting rid of the mountains seems extreme. They are pretty. And CAD is nice. Better idea is just to make them retractable. Lower them into the ground when a storm is coming. Lift them back up after we get our 3 feet of beautiful powder. LFG team. We can figure out how to do this. It's just basic physics (and perhaps a little geology).
  12. Kids are asleep but dad just took a jebwalk. Driveway is slowly caving to a fresh coating. Pleasant little surprise.
  13. 1.3 in Great Falls. I’ll take it for the first snow.
  14. If you cut it to 4" your snow totals would increase dramatically.
  15. 34 this morning in Great Falls with moderate frost on the yard.
  16. 35 in Great Falls with light frost.
  17. We all believe it from the beginning, we just tell ourselves we don't as a coping mechanism.
  18. "Winter is over" bridge jumping on October 10 has to be a new forum record. Well done!
  19. To be fair, it's been pleasant almost every day for three straight weeks
  20. Was actually fairly pleasant (or not unpleasant) outside early this morning. 72 for the low. Already much less pleasant now . . . 81/76.
