Speaking of the GEFS... the mean (sorry if this was posted already) is godawful. This needs to turn around ASAP

18z FV3 is a big swing and a miss, .1" of QPF makes it up to just south of Fredericksburg or so. See it here: http://mageval.ncep.noaa.gov

GEFS essentially identical to 6z just based off the snowmap. better zoom. It is a slight improvement. Mean jumped an 1" or so for DCA.

DCA: 11/16 BWI: 11/2 IAD: 11/2 RIC: 11/16 Tiebreaker: 4.7"

Wait... if our events are busting because we are in a drought, and hence it can’t rain/snow in a drought, are we literally going to be stuck in a drought forever? Has someone done the math?! Cancel the next 50 winters until global warming moves the ocean close enough to help us out.

I have a decent chunk of some of the free snow totals maps going back a week. I'll try and get those off of my phone and put them in an album at some point.

I had turned on TWC. The night before I had looked at my Local on the Eights and was stunned to see the 18-24 inch forecast. I knew what was coming, but couldn't grasp it until the night before. I barely got any sleep, and had the radar on. I dosed off, woke up at six, and saw the most impressive blob of white over DC, with no way out of it. Easily the best moment of my weather life, and truly got me interesting in snow, rather then hurricanes. I have a saved photo of that radar still that I'm going to try and dig out so I can remissness.
