Welcome to February! Booze. Celebrations. Treat yourselves.

Super late. This past year didn't have many intriguing weather events IMBY but show of you may have had something a bit more interesting/impactful. 1. I'll have to go with the hailstorm that occurred on April 15th. Got a bunch of dime/penny-sized or so hail that ended up coating the ground a bit. 2. It was pretty cool having a destructive-tagged STW with a thunderstorm line-segment approaching from my west across Loudoun county on August 3rd, though it weakened a bit before moving into MBY with gusts into the 30s (mph) and heavy rain. The back to back 4"+ snows IMBY from January was nice. While not IMBY... the June 5th tornado outbreak was something fairly impactful, particularly across northern MD.

Yeah. 0z 3kNAM showing winds 1km above the surface of 40-45kts within the mixing layer Wednesday afternoon w/ the 0z HRRR being super aggressive briefly showing winds of around 50kts within the mixing layer Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday, especially the afternoon, could be quite windy.

Precip was very light but below freezing temps and a cold ground allowed for whitening of hard surfaces. Was originally going to call it a trace but with all of the 0.1" reports immediately surrounding me and taking into account sleet pellets piled at least two pellets high in depth... a tenth of an inch is the final measurement I went with making it the first measurable white stuff of the season for me.) 1/03/2025: 0.2" (Brief light rain/snow/graupel shower around 2pm. Heavy snow associated with a developing snow squall between 2:50pm-3:15pm with a brief brake in intensity to light snow between 3:00pm and 3:05pm. A second snow squall from 4:13pm to 4:25pm. Snow was light to moderate with the second squall until 4:22pm when rates briefly became as heavy as during first squall. Peak snowfall rates from both squalls in the 1-2"/hr range.) 1/06/2025: 6.2" (First flakes around or shortly after midnight on the 6th. Light snow becoming moderate at times by 2:00am lasting through 7am before becoming intermittent and tapering off to a few small flakes/crystals by 9:45am. A brief moderate snow shower around 1:40pm tapering off to a light snow then flurries by 2:20pm and holding near that intensity until the 4pm hour when it became a very light snowfall again. Light snow, approaching moderate intensity at times from the 5pm hour through 8:30pm, then very light snow/flurries until 10:15pm when snow tapered off.) Snow totals IMBY as of January 6, 2025: 6.5"

Lol! Second time the Monument gets struck this week.

Wondering if those 50+ DBZ reflectivities near Fairfax are all snow or some kind of mix.

Rain/snow mix here in Herndon.

Some CAMs have >100 J/kg of CAPE with some positive CAPE reaching above 600mb where the temp drops to near -30C. So I wouldn't be surprised if there were a few lightning events with the most intense snow showers/squalls.
