Omg. Well, I’m glad you are okay but that is scary as all get out. I’ve had a tire piece off a semi jump a retaining wall in TX and smack my windshield and leave a massive rubber mark on the driver side. I’m happy it didn’t smash my windshield though, but that sudden impact is scary as anything.

I’m very happy you showed the Hazards Forecast for the CONUS as it’s a pretty good product for stakeholders to utilize in order to look out for potential weather hazards in the medium range for decision making purposes. However, just to correct, and only doing this because it’s my office that does it, this is a WPC product, not SPC. SPC is a different office that specializes in severe and fire weather with mesoscale discussions for winter weather created as well. Just an FYI, we are different

Looking at my forecast and verification via LSR’s, I think I did a decent job in capturing the event. I wish I stuck with my higher totals I had for the region because those verified. QPF was pretty incredible and helped a ton, even with all the sleet. Overall, not bad. I give myself an A- or B+. I’ll take it. Any feedback is welcome

I start night shifts late this week, so I could very well be in the thick of forecasting this if it comes to fruition. Here’s to another week of tracking

I can tell you we got over 9” for our areas. We went with 9.4” official. It was just hours on end of moderate precip throughout the event. Never got heavy, but never got truly light either. Just steady as could be in reflectivity.

This was one TOUGH storm to forecast. This stuff is not easy. I’m happy with my forecast. Maybe underestimated part of MD, but I’ll gladly accept considering how insane this one was to figure out. Overall, this is an all timer with regards to winter weather for a storm perspective. It’s about to get crazy with the cold following too.

Let’s go!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I am getting those sled dogs ready

That is incredible. What a storm

Correct!

Yeah. It seemed like moderate to MAYBE bordering heavy for a brief time today with precip, but it mainly remained moderate for an extended time. Still a solid storm for out here. So pretty

NAM Nest is truly a solid model for thermals but it SUCKS for QPF. This is a big reason I did my forecast like I did and it seems to be working out, however probably underestimated the total sleet after the snow. These totals post flip are nuts across MD. Went a little too low.

Yup! 6E Martinsburg, WV Back home has got to be nasty. ROUGH back there. Stay warm my man

After a high of 15.6°, it has dropped back to 13.4° with sleet continuing. Absolutely incredible storm. Pushing 9” of snow and sleet

You just inspired me. Prepping some steaks and shrimp Hell yes!!
