ohleary, is Fort Royal VA in that mesoscale band showing up on NAM? I don't know the exact position of where I'm at. 

 

 

Looks like it's right about there...just above the max. 

 

Wife reports eyeballing about 6" in Reston.

It's been snowing pretty well for the last hour here, @ 31.5, but it's not even really adding much to what I have on the grass already (1/2 inch?) It's barely sticking to the side parts of my street where people park and don't drive. The flake size isn't as big as 40 mins ago or so either.

Surprised to see the zones issued by LWX at 9:33 still saying 6-10" for Montgomery Co and 4-8" for Calvert where my folks live.  They still have all rain there.  As for here, we just have light snow with occasional moderate bursts and the 1-1.5" is just holding.  It seems event the real intense echoes (yellow) are moderate at best then it goes back to just light.  I have doubts we see even 4" on the grass.  Streets and even sidewalks are just wet.

Made it to 10" before we hit a massive lull.  Even had sunlight for a time.  Probably spells the end of our accumulation window here, and I'm not sure that we even get another substantial band.  Really got great rates from 7:30 to about 9.  Picked-up 2 inches in that time period.  Great storm for March.

 

Dude. What are you talking about? Have you even looked at the radar. We still have 8-9 hours of snow left. :facepalm:

That's my experience in Rockville right now.

It does depend on how far north that band is. We are getting to the point where our radar direction is ne. Those bands have to be a bit to our north in order to clip us.

I think DC is going to be happy when this is done.

Wow.  Congrats.  4" here, and with the lull in precip its jumped to 34 degrees. Winds have turned to the NW, so not expecting much more from the bands to the east.
