  1. For those who don't remember the Feb. 25, 2007 event I mentioned earlier, here's a photo I took (from the Capitol Hill northeast neighborhood, where I was living at the time):
  2. That's the general range I'm thinking. But it will be paste and stick to everything, and should be very photogenic!! I sort of look at this as a combination of Jan. 26, 2011 ("Commutageddon") and Feb. 25, 2007 (if anyone remembers that one). Both were paste bombs. The Feb. 2007 one was originally supposed to be icy, but we ended up with good rates and ~5" snow that stuck everywhere as it fell. Both were near or slightly above freezing during the snow.
  3. Damn, that sounds tasty!! Nice kick too, with the red curry.
  4. Hello Bob!! Now we know it's on! Good to see you...and nice dissertation you wrote up a few posts back!
  5. Amen! Now, can we conjure up @Bob Chill again for this one??
  6. You mean Ron, not Rand! (not a fan of Rand... or Ron for that matter...but always like the "its happening!" gif!)
  7. Yup makes sense. Looks like they wanted to be sure and then just pulled the trigger after coordinating with surrounding WFOs.
  8. The watch was just issued, but yes the point forecasts still look like the wording from a little earlier. Maybe not caught up yet on the actual forecast wording update.
  9. Happy because it's actually readable? Or because of the amounts? (Both)
  10. Definitely looks to go on later into Sunday, compared to earlier.
  11. That's the mean, at that range? Amazingly high...must be some big hits in there. (Oh, and time to charge your phone, LOL!! Yeah, had to go there once again, sorry!!)
  12. Yeah, all models are showing a veritable firehose of precip through that time period! ETA: And several wave impulses propagating along that.
  13. Yes, good posting, Cobalt! I'm all for more snow than ice, for sure. So it's good to see the GEFS and EPS mean a little more on the colder/snowier side; keep us above that boundary. A little ice in there isn't too bad, even very interesting, but I think everyone here would prefer to mostly to see accumulating snow of course. And yeah, that frigid air hanging around would keep anything that falls on the ground there for awhile if true.
  14. That's what they used to call "reading a book" back in the day!
  15. Can't quite tell from the 1000 mentions he made...is he hoping it comes farther north?
  16. Point is, you posted "banter-like" posts/rants in the thread where you're complaining about others posting banter in that same thread. I thought my snark was pretty clear, but whatever.
  17. You're probably in a much better place to score some frozen tomorrow compared to farther east (I just expect rain here around the DC area)...but yeah, if it happens as indicated out your way, that's quite a run!
  18. ETA: I'll take the over on those temps...but even still, that's quite the signal for some real cold. Even if overdone it might end up the coldest (or colder) since Feb. 2015 if this happens.
  19. Yeah, that D6 (next Wed.) system hopefully can keep the boundary just south of us or so. I thought the models were backing off some from dumping the TPV too far west, from some discussion I recall later yesterday.
  20. Well, you and PSU (and some others) kind of highlighted that time period, and it has been showing up for a bit in various forms...so credit where credit is due if we score! Oh, and your phone needs a good charge again, LOL!!!
  21. Yup...it's been showing that for a little while, definitely a good look!
  22. Don't think it's dynamic enough for that, though a decent swath of QPF. We got thundersnow and heavy rates during 2011 Commutageddon, but that was an strong upper low that passed over us.
