  1. I’ve posted a bit on this but man what a great synoptic system. Literally would be an example in my weather and atmosphere class at uva of how the jet influences H5 levels which influence 850 down lift and cyclogenesis.
  2. I think it might be the thing over DC. The western band is dying out
  3. I’m now from 2 miles outside the yellows to a singular mile. So close
  4. The western and intensifying band is exactly 2 miles to my west. Still getting some good blowing snow but nothing crazy like it was from the 5-7pm hours. Hoping it slowly shifts east to get me in the goods. Either way not going to worry about it and hop on into the hot tub for a bit.
  5. I think today was a great example of the margins we lose. I'm at around 2 inches of snow and waited till 2pm for snow to start mixing into the rain. We run that back 2-3 degrees colder and I'm below freezing a whole hour or two ahead of time which is probably around an inch extra of snow. Now, to truly get this storm further we would need 5+ degrees colder to get it all snow from morning onwards.
  6. One last picture from my two hour Jebwalk. Three second exposure by the creek bed.
  7. Yeah right now we both seem to be in a nice secondary band of snow. Doesn't seem like its really going anywhere from radar so maybe we'll be fine.
  8. Both our houses look to be right next to the western edge... either way has been a fun night.
  9. One of the best Jebwalks I've taken. Pictures are from around 5:30pm.
  10. Trying to work out what pictures I want to include for my post. Got some fantastic deer pictures.
  11. Still snowing nice under the bands out near the FFX Louden border. Must be closing in on two inches. Has been an amazing weather evening with windy blowing snow. Just wish someday to experience it for a whole night.
  12. Beautiful two hour jebwalk done and now heavy snow with winds blowing it. So worth driving up for this
  13. Just outside the heaviest reflectivity but regardless everything is caved and heavy dendrites. Got some awesome pictures I can’t wait to post. Anyone know if the IVt will shift east?
  14. Wow. I’m at 33.1 with heavy snow and nothing has really stuck yet. For the last 15 minutes I think I’ve still lived with just enough rain to stop accumulations. Now it’s all snow and slush is building up
  15. Thanks. Surprised I’m getting a switch to all snow and heavy snow at that without the norlun setup yet. Hopefully bodes well for the people outside of it later
  16. Seeing the reflectivity decrease across the ffx county/louden area probably means we’re going to get out of this rain snow mix soon into a more snow dominant ptype
  17. Got any tools I could use to see where it’s setting up? I’m right next to Dulles and am liking where the banding has been.
  18. Dropped into 33 degrees but still a rain snow mix.
  19. Big flakes mixing in with rain now. 50/50 mix I would say. Temps have plummeted from 36.7 to 34.5 in the past hour as winds continually shift more north.
  20. All rain where I am but the rain itself is probably an 80% liquid and 20% solid type concoction.
  21. In the past hour or so temps have dropped into the upper 35s and winds have shifted from due east to now solidly northeast. Solar radiation is also beginning to decrease. I expect areas near where I am to switch to snow within the hour or so.
