Rotunda picture? You’re slacking on the job

Been out photographing since 4am give me a break I don’t wanna miss morning light by the Dell

McLean roads are covered with 1/3" of snow. you can't even see the pavement, and boy is it slippery out there. Let's see if FCPS should've closed.

Dell woods were another spot I always hit up. Most I did in a night there was 10mi of walking. Snowtunda is iconic though - shame on you

Now picking up a bit in Baltimore, still pretty light but it is now sticking to most things.

Just arrived at work in Easton. Steady snow falling here with a coating of snow on the ground and untreated surfaces. Just a few flakes in the air when I left my house.

Haven't rolled out of bed yet but I can see white rooftops out the window

From yesterday? 

16 hours ago so yes. I’m actually surprised they didn’t delay.

You're getting an inch of snow.

Clarksburg MD,  SN  24/20 - Roads are completely covered.

DC looks kinda in the screw zone for the moment unless that band can make it north. Was a little worried about being between bands yesterday. Got my dusting so I’m mostly content but would like to squeeze out 0.5”

[bncho]

that band in fredricksburg looks to make its way to DC region very soon, probably around 8.

Did they close? Open? Some of us don't use twitter/X whatever and can't see what you are talking about. 

Glad Howard County is open. Every closing just adds days in June, which sucks for summer vacations. 

I'm enjoying looking at the light snow falling, sitting next to our wood stove enjoying breakfast!

[bncho]

i measured 0.3" as of 7 am, so even though it may not seem like it, we're still on track as of now.

[Ajb]

Sun is up, car and deck are covered. Steady light snow. 

[baltosquid]

Eh. Took a closer look at the flakes and they’re little pixie dust things. Need more if there’s gonna be anything worthwhile here

[Imgoinhungry]

Are the folks that made weather decisions at mcps just complete incompetent morons?

Even 27 in Damascus is caving.

Baking soda more or less covering the ground

Happy with snow before Christmas, maybe an inch now

Can you blow that band a little further north? Maybe just turn on a fan?

[Eskimo Joe]

It's snowing before Christmas. I'm so happy!!

[DanTheMan]

Solid dusting. Picking up now after a lull with that heavier band lifting up towards me. A wonderful 26.8

[SomeguyfromTakomaPark]

Nice dendrites now, looks like a heavier band setting MCPS might be regretting their no delay call in 45 minutes.

I’m not surprised. It’s probably only lightly snowing at the far southern portion of the county. Ain’t doing a thing up here

I drove in from frederick to damascus. Cannot believe there wasnt a delay.

Big puffy snow in Germantown. This northern band is doing real work.

[baltosquid]

Rates just jumped big time here! Finally some real flakes. Small, but better than dust!
