  1. So, I'm hoping for DCA to cool down to freezing before midnight? Ugh, congrats to yoda and mappy.
  2. BWI: 11/6 DCA: 11/6 IAD: 10/27 RIC: 11/6 Tiebreaker: 8.67"
  3. Zoysia is fantastic in the summer, but it goes dormant (brown) in the winter and takes quite a while to green up in the Spring. If you are ok with that, it is great for full sun areas. And it is so nice and lush.
  4. Only mowing on the longest setting this summer to see how much that helps.
  5. Everything is growing really well in my yard, except the raspberries, which seem to have finally bit it. One thing that I am going to do this fall is do a pre-emergent. This was absolutely the worst winter weed situation we've had, despite an otherwise healthy yard.
  6. I’m surprised we haven’t had more days like this. Nice catch.
  7. I didn’t really notice any non-snow forms here, but there were a lot of needle snowflakes which are just awful for accumulation.
  8. DCA beat me too. 9.8” on 1.01” precip. Almost perfectly a 10:1 ratio on the storm However, and I don’t know if this held everywhere, but ratios were terrible yesterday. 8:1 here. I’m guessing it was the non-accumulating snow from 7am to 2pm that did it.
  9. Made it past the 8” mark. 2.8” since 7am, most of it in the last couple of hours.
  10. Big clumped dendrites. This is the stuff that can accumulate quickly.
  11. I shoveled at 8am and my driveway/sidewalk is wet. Radar along 66 looks good. Would be awesome to get 2” more.
  12. And the plow driver spun out on my street. Not a great day to be out. ~6”
  13. 5.3” on 0.44” precip, so we did do ok on ratios.
  14. Everyone was all in on the Kuchera maps. We’re totally going to end up at 10:1
  15. I think that is the best run of the 3k yet. Between 0.9” and 1.0” for DC.
  16. NAM looks like about 1” for DC. While it has lingering snow, it isn’t quite as ridiculous as the 12z run.
  17. The euro is like 1/4” to 1/3” snow per hour. It just goes on forever.
  18. The thing the NAM has is a tighter 500 and a path that is perfect for the DC metro to keep that feed going all afternoon
