  1. Good to get confirmation on similar totals closeby
  2. I think that little band during the lull saved a lot of us from a real bust
  3. Obligatory deck pic. Still pixie flakes
  4. Well indeed its. That’s something
  5. Just measured an additional 0.8”, which gets me to 6.9” It stopped snowing for now, but if I get another small band, then I hit 7” 6” OTG though with earlier compaction. Good storm, I’m happy.
  6. Still snowing, sidewalks covered again. Streets caving. But dry slot upon me, so it may end soon
  7. Light mod snow with good dendrites. We will see how much it will add to my totals. Maybe one more inch
  8. Few big flakes. It's trying.
  9. Very light snow, accumulations have not resumed yet. Hopefully just working its way to the surface.
  10. Same. The pause didn't last long.
  11. Snizzle started again under those returns (Ashburn). Will update if anything changes for the better
  12. For the first time today, precip has stopped. If @clskinsfan is still seeing pixie dust, it may start again soon here too
  13. Latest NAM 3k and RAP currently depict less than an inch for most of the sub. Maybe with higher ratios we can eek out an inch, but idk
  14. What's your total so far? I went out to measure and I also picked up another 1.3", bringing my total to 6.1". But wanted to confirm if anyone else in Loudoun county also got 6"+?
  15. I walked right into that one…
  16. Agree. I think given the data and parameters, the forecast was fair and well done. Someone was going to get double digit totals, and others were only going to reach the low end of the forecast range. I wouldn’t call it a bust, even though my backyard underperformed with the frontend thump. Dry air and poor snow growth really ate into the totals, but regardless it is a winter wonderland out there. It looks the same to me whether I got 6” or 9”. this surprise little “lake effect” band is a nice one though. Really fluffed things up! I’m happy with the way things turned out even though I got nowhere near the jackpot.
  17. Nice dendrites from this “lake effect”-like band
  18. I'm on the south side of that band, and I've picked up about the same amount. Even added more since my last measurement.
  19. Just measured fresh snow after shoveling my sidewalk - 0.7", which takes me to 5.5" so far
  20. Maybe... JUST maybe I can reach 8" if this ULL overperforms. I'm at or close to 5.5" with that band over me. I think 7" total is more realistic.
  21. plowed streets and shoveled sidewalks getting covered again This band looks stationary, maybe?
  22. this band over ashburn should push me to 5" total for warning criteria (compaction notwithstanding)
  23. thats not the ULL round, though. switching back to snow as this band arrives on my doorstep
