It just wont stop out here. Not really expecting much more in the way of accums. But it is still snowing lightly. Just took the dog on a nice long walk. Gorgeous out. Picked up 3.3 inches with the ull. Total for the storm is 8.6 inches. Did WAY better than I expected after the lull we had overnight. Congrats guys/gals to the east. Pretty epic storm for you all!

I’m a green badger and was told I cannot come in as green badgers are not allowed if blue badgers are not there to watch us.  Go figure. 

Gotta love the govvie-contractor relationship/rules and how they differ from agency to agency. Thing is...my client will probably think we’re dumb when I tell them we went in. :lol:

That complaint out of the way, it was a great weekend. Despite being mostly shut out in the last few hours, ended just shy of 10”. Had such a blast with the kids (6 and 16 months) today - two rounds of sledding and a lot of snow eating! :lol:

Just curious, what do you have on the ground right now? I'm near Robinson and only have about 7".

Congrats to those in the greater DC area that scored.

This is INSANE to me. I 70 was like a brick wall. Reports of 10-12” all around ec, Columbia, etc And reports of 4-6” in NW Baltimore county. What a crazy gradient.

Yep..east side of Baltimore county didn’t fare well today either. I can confirm no new accumulation today, in fact it didn’t even snow much all day even under radar returns. I have to assume dry air in some part of the atmosphere was a problem

And after 6,703 mid atlantic sub-forum posts related to this storm (threat threat+storm mode thread+this thread), this storm is wrapping up here in McLean with a little over 10 inches on the ground. What a fun storm to track

Would really be interested in hearing a post-mortem by one of the more experienced members of this sub. Talk about an overperformer-a couple days ago we were saying we'd consider ourselves lucky if we got 5 inches of snow.

Sinking air to the east as a result of of intense rising air to your west. The storm’s location never allowed for the bands to pivot east. No worries. Well all hopefully cash in this weekend!!
