    Ugh that better band is over me and still just teeny flakes
  2. WxUSAF
    It’s more of an inverted trough feature. The true CCB tomorrow doesn’t do much for us. Maybe another inch or two. IVTs can put down some snow but they are notoriously hard to predict far in advance.
  3. WxUSAF
    That’s like the 8th run in a row with that feature?? Please be right, please be right...

    I mean, even if this doesn’t pick up dramatically, another 8-12 hours like this will rack up 4-6” total for DC area and MBY. It’s not sexy, but it’s steady. Hopefully we can get a good burst or two at some point.

    It has been incredibly insistent on that. Damn I hope it holds.

    1.7” first snowboard wipe
  7. WxUSAF
    Flake quality improving slowly as the radar hopefully continues to fill in.
  8. WxUSAF
    1.5”. About 0.25-0.4”/hr. Mostly needles with some rimed dendrites mixed in.

    Huh, yeah I see that now, but total precip through Wednesday morning is very similar. Haven’t looked close enough yet to see where para makes it back up.
  10. WxUSAF
    Actually they look very similar to me now that I look closely?
  11. WxUSAF
    Can tell the column has moistened up and we’re getting better lift now, because even when rates let up a bit, we’re not going back to really tiny flakes.
  12. WxUSAF
    Both drop a solid 0.5” or more of liquid as snow before any mix this evening, so that’s nice to see. Difference is in amounts tomorrow. Guess we’ll see what the King decrees later.

    GFS jumped on board the Euro and Icon train for you and @JakkelWx with the parting shot on Tuesday. Hope that works out for you all. Non-NAM 12z guidance all seems to suggest a non-bust, if perhaps lower end of forecast ranges for most in the metro corridor.

    Not sure what you’re aiming for, but I definitely don’t hate it. Nice snow for DC and north tomorrow afternoon.

    1.1” on the snowboard. Been getting good conglomerates for the last 30mins or so, even if still not heavy rates
  16. WxUSAF
    12z RGEM and Icon are still solid for MD going through the day with ~0.5” of QPF before any mix.
  17. WxUSAF
    Big needle conglomerates falling now. Those accumulate pretty nicely. When the rates slack off, the conglomerates go away and it doesn’t accumulate well at all.
  18. WxUSAF
    0.7” for the first snowboard measurement. Snow falling for about 1hr 45mins.
  19. WxUSAF
    Indeed. Very nice right now and I’d like it to continue for, oh, at least 12 more hours like this.
  20. WxUSAF
    And that area over you is leading to crappy snow growth over me ATM lol
  21. WxUSAF
    My son is providing minute by minute updates on rates, flake quality, and coverage.
  22. WxUSAF
    Yup, instant stickage on all surfaces. So nice to have cold ground before a storm!
  23. WxUSAF
    And snow has started in Columbia.
  24. WxUSAF
    Euro still has that extra band along the west side of the Bay. Really hope that verifies. Probably 6-7 runs in a row with it. In other news, anytime now snow!! 30/21.
  25. WxUSAF
    Nothing that I can see out my window yet. 30/17.
