    Globals giving us a snowstorm and the NAM giving us a squall line Thursday night lol. If it were any other season I'd be laughing at the NAM.

    Dang, that menu looks good. About to order this soon from the college park location. Tempura green beans are an intriguing side dish.

    I am partial to burger fi because we have one right in silver spring....their onion rings are legit.

    I'm ready for a nice gully washer. After 3 years of dealing with a flooding basement and trying to solve the problem via landscaping, sloping terrain away from house, improving drainage, etc I gave up and got a sump pump/french drain system installed. Now I can go ahead and root for the heaviest rain possible and not have to worry about my basement.

    Hopefully what makes it different is it won't start trending away from us in the next 24-48 hours! The last disaster was supposed to be a Wed-Fri event and the Euro/EPS was showing 8-12 inches for us as late as Monday before the event before it started trending to crap.

    7 inches at 18z and still snowing in DC....
  7. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    It's a pretty substantial run to run shift comparing 12z to 00z.
  8. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    I like how this is still trending run to run in the right direction. Please don't stop!!!

    Yes I'm glad you have the history to prove it! Front end thumps with cold temps to start are actually one of the situations that are pretty straightforward and we are less likely to fail in imo. We're not waiting for a column to cool dependent upon ridiculous rates.
  10. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    GFS is a front end crush job. 6+ inches for DC by 15z before changeover.
  11. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Yessir! Frozen precip all the way into NC.

    This is kind of a garbage post. You're not considering or analyzing the synoptic evolution or antecedent airmass. You're just saying "we always fail". I've lived in the DC area since 2009 and there have been quite a few good storms that don't fit your narrative.
  13. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Hmmm, of course that outcome is possible, but I don't necessarily agree. Starting out in the 20s is a decent recipe for some front end accumulations. Of course, the models could all change and we could start out at 35 and fail miserably, but if the models hold the look they have now I'd expect at least some accumulations.
  14. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Yeah, it's awesome. It's amazing that Houston Texas will maybe have a lower lowest temp this winter than DC, Philly, and NYC.
  15. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Our pathetic winter continues up here in the DC area, but I am excited to see this historic storm in Texas!!! Austin getting 3-5 inches of snow, going into the single digits two nights in a row, that’s so absurd.
  16. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Has anyone been keeping tabs on how it ended up doing with the last few storms?
  17. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Looks like we hang on to the surface for almost the duration. Snow --> ice --> dryslot.
  18. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Euro at 96 is a nice looking panel....snow for all.
  19. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    An inch of QPF on the Euro for Tuesday. That plus the ice melt is gonna make for some soggy ground.
  20. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Wow my road is a sheet of ice, I went to the top of our little hill and took a running start and I slid like a solid 10 feet or more on my boots lol. Driving has gotta be super treacherous right now.
  21. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Very solid ice event. Probably the best I’ve experienced in this area (been here since 2009). As others have noted if this occurred overnight, or perhaps earlier in the winter with weaker sun, it would’ve been better, but still nice for this region.
  22. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Yeah I was hoping for some straight old fashioned drizzle, the kind that doesn’t even show up radar.
  23. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    I was hoping for some drizzle/mist to cap this off but doesn’t appear to be happening tonight.
  24. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    That is such an amazing thing given how outrageously large the state of Texas is.
  25. SomeguyfromTakomaPark
    Looks about done, sprinkles now. Beautiful scene outside with all the icicles and what not. Maybe we can get some drizzle in later with easterly flow.
