The 6Z GFS is beautiful.  All snow for the area.  Sleet line barely makes it as far north as Fredericksburg and the lower eastern shore.

Yes this is what I want. We all win.

No. It was a pounding WAA thump (14” for me), then drizzle all day, and then a few more inches of snow in the evening with the ULL.

Yup that was 2/14/14. I remember that well. We got 24" in Damascus, but only 5" in Takoma Park. It was the most intense snowfall gradient I ever witnessed. We took plows from southern Montgomery County and sent them north to help the upcounty roads.

Does anyone have a good final totals map from the 2014 event? From what I remember the N/W crew (which I was not a part of at that time) totaled 20” in spots

16 then another 7.5 at night from the ULL. 23.5 total. Just west of here got 3-4 from ULL. Manchester was sweet spot.

6z Euro is a FOLKS worthy panel for the dc Baltimore crew.

Now that's smelling the sleet at BWI

[Eskimo Joe]

Euro insistent on a late Saturday night to early Sunday start time across the area. Precip comes in like a wall in the dead of night.

I’ll allow it, don’t like that mix line though

Well, I  try not to go up there when it gets bad, but I can imagine it's a nightmare with storms now where close to this one. But that is one of my favorite drives.

[Eskimo Joe]

Yea the 06z Euro gets hanky with the sleet and zr line. If I were in NC or Southern VA I'd be upset.

I mean if it's coming down that heavy does the snow really have the time to completely melt then freeze into sleet? Maybe just ugly rimmed flakes is my uneducated guess
