10:1? I thought you were a weenie <_<

Kuchie is so marginally better for some/worse for others I didn't think it was worth any further damage to my reputation by posting it, but by popular demand:

It's a nice run. I'm still honestly not super satisfied being on the SW end of this. Feels a bit like a heartbreaker. Would like another 50mi SW jump, not just to put me in the jackpot, but to add some fail insurance. Very little runway here

Yup.  That's hanging in the back of my mind.  It's keeping me from being super pumped about any of this.  I'm in a weird space of happy, but ready to accept probably failure.

Same.  If we get more than an inch, I would be super pleased

Yeah, I definitely hear you, another nudge SW would add more confidence but having the Euro basically hold+, is great.  We'll be at Deep Creek this weekend but rooting hard for DC.

Coming out Sunday to ski.

Should be some great conditions 

Hoping they have some of the East ridge open by then.

Everyone is appropriately focused on the precip chances, but the temperature trend is looking like it will be unusual.  The core of the cold sweeps in during the day Sunday and we are in deep winter by evening with temps somewhere around 20 and breezy conditions.  But then the airmass begins to moderate and we flatline overnight into Monday.

They're making snow on the East ridge, hopefully they can open a few by then (that would be the earliest in the last few years).  They upgraded their snow making technology in the off season so hopefully that helps too.

I was reading about that.

I love Wisp. By far my favorite ski resort

It might work out, it might not. I have 70/30 fail to win ratio. 
 

Until it starts we just won’t know

Does anyone have a DCA sounding for precip onset time?  Is this a cold chasing precip situation?  Or are we expecting to wetbulb down pretty quick after precip starts?  Surface looks warm.

I know this is Mt. Holly... but definitely thought they'd wait one more model cycle

Sterling alluded to a "low end warning event" in their late morning AFD update?

Quote

With such a narrow banded feature, there's still a fair amount
of uncertainty with respect to how much precipitation will
ultimately fall. Precipitation could also potentially start as a
brief period of rain along the I-95 corridor before much colder
air rushes in later during the night behind an Arctic front. For
these reasons, a wide variety of potential solutions exists,
especially along the I-95 corridor. Further west, a high end-
advisory or low-end warning level snowfall appears likely.

Between the Allegheny Front and Blue Ridge lesser QPF amounts
are likely with all precipitation likely falling as snow. Most
solutions show a coating to two inches of snow in this area, but
as much as 4 inches could be possible in a high end scenario in
the Shenadoah Valley. Further east, around the I-95 corridor, 
the widest range of potential solutions exists. If most of the 
precipitation were to fall as rain, or the band of higher QPF 
were to shift northward out of the area, as little as a coating 
to an inch of snow could occur. Currently, we have 1-4 inches of
snow forecast as the most likely scenario to the east of the 
Blue Ridge. In a high end scenario, as much as 6 inches of snow 
could occur under the heaviest part of the band if the 
precipitation stays all snow.

Aside from the threat for snow early in the day, winds will pick
up substantially behind this arctic front by Sunday afternoon.
Expect wind gusts out of the northwest up to 30 mph, with gusts
closer to 45 mph on the ridgetops out west. Wind headlines
cannot be ruled out for the ridges during this timeframe as a
result.
