    Ian reporting -SN in NW DC.
  2. Eskimo Joe
    Yes. Even had a short thumb in DC proper.
  3. Eskimo Joe
    Gaithersburg (KGAI) reporting -SN and a Td of 22. Should help reinforce the wedge.
  4. Eskimo Joe
    IAD reporting -SN
  5. Eskimo Joe
    Frederick (KFDK) reporting -SN.

    If we can somehow pop the 850 low a few hours earlier and a bit east this could still work out...it's absolutely a long shot and probably won't happen but one can wish.
  7. Eskimo Joe
    Leesburg (KJYO) reporting -SN.

    Latest WPC surface map. Worth following this account if you have Twitter...they're a WPC met:
  9. Eskimo Joe
    This definitely seems to be coming in earlier than forecast.
  10. Eskimo Joe
    Fredericksburg and Stafford AWOS are reporting -SN
  11. Eskimo Joe
    Orange, VA ASOS (K0MH) is reporting -SN. Good to see the column can support snow at the onset that far south.

    SPC is your best site. Here are the RAOBS: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/soundings/

    Just checked the 12z RAOB out of IAD. There appears to be a bit of a warm nose somewhere around 800 mb, but there's a bit of dry air above and below it. I wonder if the dry air would allow precip to cool the column more effectively and maybe offset that. It would have big implications for snow totals, especially down towards the cities if we can really thump for a few hours as SN or even +SN.

    Per the SPC mesoanalysis, the coastal has popped offshore of South Carolina at 1012 mb.
  15. Eskimo Joe
    Yea, SPC's HREF (experimental or operational?) seemed to initialize the Quebec high better than most and is, as a result, colder down through I-95 and maybe even into Annapolis.

    Either Valentine's Day 2007 or the one in March...I got 5" of sleet in Philly from the March storm.

    A lot of meso models are hammering I-70 up into south central PA with the WAA snow tomorrow. There's some impressive 850-700 mb forcing with that.
  18. Eskimo Joe
    Appears the 3k NAM gives a lot of people low end advisory snow on the backside.

    After this event, we all deserve a stone cold mauling.

    Oh yikes. Sending good vibes for your furry kid.

    @mappy, @a.salt, @HighStakes, @psuhoffman, 18z GFS COBB data keeps Westminster as all snow.
  24. Eskimo Joe
    The 18z NAM 3k, GFS, and RGEM all advertise a quick, say 3 hour, CCB on the backside for Frederick, Carroll, Howard, Baltimore, and Harford counties. It's all snow with crashing temps that might deliver a surprise to the usual suspects. Not something to bank on, but it would be snow on top of IP/ZR which would be guaranteed to stick.
  25. Eskimo Joe
    I walk the line in Reisterstown and flip to IP or ZR for a time...that's fine with me. Another 30 miles SE and it would probably push you back into the 12"+ range.
