Baby Terpeast was born this morning, and both he and Miss Terpeast are doing well. Thanks for all the support and kind words (and the laughs from all these shoe jokes). And there was about 1.5” on the ground when I had a chance to go outside and get our stuff for the overnight hospital stays. Which is the same as the local Ashburn report for LWX. Looked like a real winter wonderland outside the 4th floor window. Today was a great day! 

Major congratulations my man!! Amazing day

Another dusting here - wasn’t able to discern what was old/new snow so won’t measure.

@Kay did you get an additional coating too?

Yep, thin coating. I didn't measure.

Radar is kind of blowing up just to my west and coming to a halt. Pretty sure this is a way to screw my backyard.

Radar blowing up south of DC a bit, as well as those snow showers that have been north all night. Interesting

Been noticing snow developing right over Dale City. Let's pad those totals some! EPIC Dec 5th snow in 2025!

Doing something down here, at swim meet but my rain gauge detected something, rain rate says moderate and cameras are showing that it’s not fluffy flakes…maybe sleet is my guess or heavier freezing rain.  Will know in about an hour.

Confirming sleet and freezing rain now here at the Mt. Vernon Rec Center, temp 31.   Fun Stuff!

Radar is wild! Blowing up like a thunderstorm

Beautiful snow in Baltimore still. If only it had been like this in the morning as well!!

Anyone know what is reaching the ground in the Dale City region? Radar shows pretty good snow elements developing. Or is that just a bunch of FRZRA and sleet?

This might be a very good time to go out on a jebslide on the ice...

I can confirm some sleet and freezing rain in Charles County under very light returns.

Snow and freezing rain mix here! I must say I have enjoyed the wintry atmosphere heading to and from rehearsals for a Christmas program. I have learned to enjoy even the light coverings once I actually step outside

I thought it was nice because of the lighting, rule of thirds, etc. basically it showed that it took some decent skill to take that photo. Is ur camera 12MP?

Well I like to think that my skill has something to do with them too lmao. But the d850 is 45mp flagship dslr camera so it’s pretty much a professional camera.

Some photos from Virginia Tech this evening. Never broke 32F today. Back down to 27F with some freezing fog setting in.

Lol, light snow in arlington. Decent flakes

Radar is really interesting. I’ve gotten almost as much snow tonight as I did this morning.
