  1. Actually in the process of flipping rn. Wet snow mixing in. Dropped to 36
  2. Back to rain, rates are nowhere near what the yellows might tell you. Lots of brightbanding. Not too promising unless the afternoon band absolutely goes nuclear on us. note whoever has been getting snow since mid morning will do just fine though
  3. Started out as rain, and just when I was going to call TOD on this for folks east of 15, I saw a flake. Will wait another 15 min or so
  4. Yellows on my door step. Moment of truth. If I see flakes mixing in at minimum, then its game on for the NW suburbs
  5. Precip finally started, and it's sleet. 37/33 Ashburn
  6. Where did you get this? Last afd was 9:21 am per the usual link
  7. 37/34. No precip yet, but radar filling to the west. R/S line between leesburg and frederick and moving south. Should be snowing here by 1 pm
  8. I’m still at 37 but see lots of 34s just to the NW of me
  9. This. My window for heavy snow is 1-4 pm. If its 36 and raining at 1 pm, I’m calling bust on my own forecast
  10. Radar looks healthy out west in WV. I’m still at 37 now, but I expect to drop further at around 11 am or so. Maybe sooner if Frederick is already seeing flakes
  11. You’ll do pretty well up there. Down here closer to i-66/rt 50 line is gonna be dicey and the only way we get real accums is heavy banding when the front passes
  12. It won’t take much. Once the rates come, temps are gonna drop and fast. Entire column is cold enough, except the bottom portion of the boundary layer. May lose just <0.1” qpf because of that, nbd. Just means we probably won’t hit the high end of the forecast
  13. Rose to 38.5 at 6 am, dropped to 37 since. Radar showing growing precip west of charleston wv - those are the goods to watch.
  14. I know right? This event hasn’t even started yet and we’re cliff diving. Yes we’re running a bit warm atm but the arctic front is coming and banding will develop along that front. It’ll be a beatdown and how much we get will be determined how long the banding lasts
  15. Cold air is slower, precip about the same. LWX says precip is faster, but I don’t see that yet.
  16. I still think we have a shot at 3” or a little more when the arctic front passes with heavy banding along that.
