Snow coming to an abrupt end here.  Came down hard the last three hours but the back edge moved in quickly.   

2.5 inches and that is decent for it starting at 9:30 AM.  Might have to shovel, and clear the cars.  28 degrees. 

Roads pretty nasty.  Brine did little good here.

1” sleet/snow since I swept my spot. 3.5” total so far. 

 

Will likely be the last bit as temps are soaring. Up to 31 after being 29.9 just about an hour ago. 

Sleet changing to zr and soon will be just rain after I lose freezing temps

You did slightly better with the sleet than I did -- only 0.8" here since I measured (and swept) with the sleet transition.  Felt like rain when I was out. 

1:05pm - 3.3" (2.5" snow, 0.8" sleet), SSW Franconia/Kingstowne, Fairfax County.

Looks like it. Seems the dryslot blasted in way ahead of schedule. What you end up with?  

Ha, yeah who knew the problem was going to be a dryslot and not temps aloft. Seems like we underperformed in the qpf department. Kinda disappointing finish, but it was really fun for a couple of hours this morning. Best two hours of winter I've had this year.

I'm happy the snow performed here but I'm kinda sad the sleet didn't 

I actually agree with you. I was looking forward to a 3 or 4 hour sleet bomb. I dry slotted shortly after the sleet started. I cant complain I got almost 7 inches of snow out of this. Really fun storm to track and watch fall.

Closest report to dca I could find on the nws website was ballston and the 2.6 report was from 1030am. 

I'm pretty sure my result (2 miles west of DCA) was about 2.5 inches before the s**** and f***** **** knocked down the totals on the hedges.

Hrrr has rounds of freezing rain returning later . 28 currently.  Very few pingers here before the dryyyy slotttt .  

Got 4.8" total between 8:30 - 12:20. Great rates once it started. Missed lasts hours measurement but I'll go with the 4.8. Fun storm and it's far from over here with hours of ice coming .
