Sold. That's December climo snowfall for many.

I'd take a nice covering of the streets and ground.  1-2" would be nice.  Anything more - and its a small chance - would be gravy.

[H2O]

One thing that might help this snow compared to many other storms is when we have to wait for the cold to bleed in before precip. 
 

Not with this one so whatever precip does fall won’t be lost to temps

But I’m not snowenouthere and I’ll eat my shoe if wrong

You people are weirdos. 

This system in Feb or March coming in at 10am would most likely be white rain even if it were cold.

6z Eps. No idea how it came up with this snowfall map.

Well you’re looking at snow depth 2 days later?

You're too quick. I deleted after I saw that. Lol

6z Euro. Count me in! Maybe we can juice it up a touch more? I need enough snow to cover my back yard leaves that I was too effin lazy to rake.

For some reason I am enthused seeing the euro.  I adopted a new stance to wait until inside 84 hours vice 384hrs for enthusiasm ops.

For once, the trend is our friend. But when you think about it, it's looking like a typical north trend. Hopefully, 48hrs isn't enough time for too much.

Of course, now that I said that, it'll shift south at 12z!

Looking at a blend of GFS, Euro, NAM, CMC, Euro AI, ICON you get temps like 26-31 for DC metro area.  That is a great sign IMO.  We do best when we're not waiting for dynamic cooling.  I like a good entrenched cold air mass.

A freezing or sub freezing high temp for DCA would be incredibly impressive. That’s like a -20F departure or more.

Stop it.  The storm will see this post and not come now.
