Heisy Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 There's going to a pretty sweet deformation zone somewhere in VA, someone will get the initial WAA snows and then stay in that spot as the low goes East. Wherever that is will get the foot + accumes imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Ian, how much dropoff in qpf as you head north from DCA? Still decent qpf up toward Phineas and psu or is that where the cutoff is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 really good time of day (or night I should say) to get started with precip. Could be an accum saver of sorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I am not sure how you can think this is a bad run for anyone in the DC/BWI region. I don't think it is bad at all. To be clear, I am not as certain that "north trend" is something that will happen with each run as some of you all on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
