Low of 26.6 Still a wintry look with the remaining patches of snow.

It's either gone by sunset or gone just after sunrise tomorrow. Doesn't really matter. The real joy was watching the rates and seeing real accumulation just a few hours after overnight mid-summer warmth.

Still a steady light snow here, just a few miles east of the county line. We definitely got the goods for the past few hours. Hopefully those to the east now also cash in.

Just measured a very unofficial 1.0" on the car. Obviously less on the grass. But looks like more than 0.5".

Getting close to a legit 0.1" on the grass. 33.8 degrees.

Officially a car topper here. A few specks of white now appearing on the grass as well. 34.5 degrees.

Some slushy deck stickage with heavier rates. 35.4 degrees. Also, surprising silence from that Eagles fan guy.

Flakes mixing in Great Falls. 38.7

Down to 39.9. Still a rain/sleet mix but more sleet now in the mix.

40.8 with sleet now mixing in Great Falls.

Highs for the day at IAD and DCA are 76-77. Any accumulating snow would be impressive. That fact that it is very likely going to snow for a few hours, even without accumulation, is also impressive. In my view, that’s the proper benchmark

Hopefully everyone recognizes that . . . but the 10:1 and Kuchera clown maps are a lot more fun.

Positive snow depth change from the GFS. Still would be impressive given the circumstances:

18z GFS. Someone who pays money for these things can post a better map:
