Still a 1036mb high overhead: https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/sfc/sfcobs/latestsfc.html

 

 

 

Yeah, but this is the 500mb pattern, super unfavorable on large scale as a sustained thing, it's taking a few days to change the surface.

Some schools (Fairfax and some to the NW) are delayed two hours.

Probably to ensure most leftover black ice gets melted/washed away or visible.

Temp around 30 and sounds like rain on my roof and windows

BWI reported 1”! How did IAD only have 0.4”??

I believe this is the first winter since 17-18 that BWI has recorded more than a T of snowfall in 4 straight months (Dec-Mar).

Can you imagine how much you would have gotten 30 years ago. Probably 50". 

Eh, idk. This winter has been pretty dry. Maybe tack on a few extra inches

Actually (nerding out for a minute), 30 years ago was 1985-86, a backloaded nina winter. IAD got 15.6" total. I've already beaten that

1.0” snow yesterday.  Light glaze on elevated surfaces overnight.

Enough of a glaze of ice to delay school 2hrs.
