Still coming down as hard as it's been all day in Arlington. Took a few minutes to preclear the sidewalks and driveway apron from the heavy layer of sleet. Some cars spinning out going up the hill in front of the house 3-4% grade. Hard freeze is going to make clearing the roads quickly, critical!

Pools and boats, best owned by people you know and not yourself!

Yard is too sloped for a pool and besides I'm a "it's better to have a friend with a pool" kind of guy! But, might be enclosing the deck and maybe adding a hot tub too this summer!

Sled runs from big storm are still holding on. Could really use a decent thump of snow to fill in some thin spots before our deep freeze and then the kiddos will be happy for another week!

34.5° and puking sleet in Arlington!

Snow finally starting to mix in in Arlington. 35.6° tho...

We've gone from 34° to holding at 38° in western Arlington. Definitely a trend in the wrong direction, currently drizzling...ugh

I stupidly thought when we were down to 29 by 9pm that we had an outside shot at starting as freezing rain or snow in Arlington. Well, I've all but thrown in the towel and can't wait for a nice, cold rain

Snow flurries in Arlington. I guess dreams do come true!

At least we are not talking about a Harrisburg Hauler this round.

NWS Raleigh and NC State MEAS have done a good job with the catalogue of events affecting NC. Might find more there? Here is the link to the storm you referenced: https://projects.ncsu.edu/atmos_collaboration/nwsfo/storage/cases/20000125/ Full site: https://www.weather.gov/rah/events

Lol, I lost track of time with dinner and kids bedtime routine. Check the 18z GFS, come straight here and am not disappointed by the conversation. Cheers everyone!

FWIW, just drove from Arlington to Woodbridge (IKEA, because again, I hate myself). Flakes mixing in around beltway when I left at 8:45, then all rain from Braddock Rd south. On the way back, no flakes until I-66 (9:45ish), so it does not look like the snow line was really dropping south quickly at all.

40 and .22 inches of rain this far. Bet all these Arlington parents are glad the school jumped the gun on canceling school last night!

Agreed. My CoCoRaHS total was 1.22 total. Not sure what the deal with the automated gauge was...
