29.8F / 9F at 8:45pm in Clarksburg after a high of 32.8F and a low of 18.4F. Ground that stayed mostly shady all day is frozen. Not your typical early spring day 'round here. Winds that were N all day switched to light SSW for the 3 hours leading up to sunset but have switched back to light NNW in the last hour.

31/11

 

light southeasterly winds

 

hoping for a cartopping, but noon with that sun angle is gonna be really tough sledding

 

my prediction for Dale City is a half inch of slush on car tops, decks and maybe on grass to the north of sunlight blocking objects

 

roads and sidewalks will be wet - no stickage at all in Dale City

I do realize the milder air will change the snow to rain later today, but nonetheless, our forecasted low was 28 and we have fallen to 25. Too bad we have a strong strong push of southeast winds overnight

 

I give my backyard about a 1 in 9999999999999999999 quintillion chance of a dusting

 

I am so excited about this historic snowstorm that I want to scream it from the top of my lungs from the housetops all night long !!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!!!1!!

 

 

I absolutely HATE nova scotia from the bottom of my heart.
