Mama2Many Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Total newbie here:) I have to say you guys rock! I have been stalking this forum all winter and you guys nail it every time! I definitely trust what I read here more than what I see elsewhere. Bonus is that I am actually learning a bit about weather! We had some crazy heavy snow here earlier. It seems to have slacked off a tiny bit and the flakes are bigger. Sure is pretty! It got quite breezy earlier, too. Looks like we have about 5 inches so far. I'm hoping it keeps up!

Snowden Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Extremely heavy snow near Dulles, my window is starting to get caked in snow.
