  1. Oops, now it’s snowing. -SN just SW of Culpeper. Didn’t take a lot to moisten the column.
  2. Might’ve been a stray flake or two but as far as I could tell the precipitation near Culpeper is mostly virga.
  3. About to drive through the likely virga around Culpeper. I’ll let you guys know if I see anything. [emoji6]
  4. ICON on TTT can’t portray mix/sleet for whatever reason, so I’m assuming it’s not actually the rain/snow line.
  5. I know you are and I hold no grudges for it. It’s every man for himself!
  6. Anyone have those CIPS analogs from a couple of days ago? Guessing they match the 12k pretty well.
  7. I’m going to have a meltdown when Charlottesville is mixing and Arlington gets 12” of snow.
  8. Just as I load the car up to head to Charlottesville the NAM gives everyone a 12-18” storm. Thank me later.
  9. 28/19 in Arlington. Decided to head back down to my dorms today so I’ll be doing obs form Charlottesville by the time the storm gets here. I know some people dislike CHO but I hope everyone gets the best storm possible.
  10. 18z EURO did the same thing, which lends some credence to the idea.
  11. 18z EURO 1hr radar (see other thread) shows that precip might struggle to get going for a little while. With these one-hour radars you can predict weenie suicides down to the hour, it's amazing.
  12. Hypothetically, if you had a choice of being in Charlottesville or Arlington for the storm, where would you for this one? When making your recommendation, remember that I’ve missed both storms this year by being in the wrong place, so I’m not exactly a good luck charm.
  13. its gonna be 5"+ at DCA... not sure if it meets the criteria of "x" inches in "y" amount of time.
  14. Fully realize most people won’t care, but for my fellow posters in the CHO area I’m getting slightly concerned about us being too far south for the WAA stuff and not close enough to the coastal. Been a persistent dry area just south of CHO for the past couple GFS runs. The usual tick north at the end might make us upset.
  15. 3k gets DC in on the coastal action. Much improved over 06z.
  16. Not that I fully disagree that the RGEM/HDERPS/CMC are bad models, but they (and the NAMs) did the best with the early December storm in Central VA. As someone mentioned earlier, the whole suite does like to over-estimate the northern extent of precip. Otherwise their performance in December impressed me. Totally agree with the rest. A winner region wide? Amazing. We need this.
  17. someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but banter on online forums is a catch-all for generally unrelated topics, not banter as in taking digs at each other. it’s why people usually talk beer, sports, and family stuff in here. it’s not meant to be the weekly infighting thread
  18. That's not untrue but on the other hand it took 4" of the snow mean at DCA. Going to upset people whose expectations were unreasonable.
