12K NAM definitely moved north of DC.  Still not a bad showing but north central MD is better.  North central VA worse. 3K similar to previous run.  Neither are like 18z.  I think the Euro looks better for my backyard so I will hug it.  This is a nice little diversion until we see what happens later in Jan.

If the 3K Nam is to be believed N DC and portions of Montgomery and Howard county will get the bulk of their snow within an hours time. 1.5-2 inch rates are showing up during the later commute between 5-6 pm. Might be a good day  to leave work early.

Just a guess, but I'd be surprised if school systems in the advisory areas don't announce an early dismissal to reduce late afternoon and evening traffic.

Nothing would surprise me anymore when it comes to the school systems these days. Not like when I was growing up and we would all be gathered at the school windows watching the snow fall heavy with 3-6" already on the ground counting the time until school let out. Normal time no less.

This is what I am expecting. They will decided by 10am, I’ll leave at noon and be on the couch and in pjs before 1pm ready for snow :lol:

Guess it was to be expected, but this system has pretty much morphed into a Fall line special (95 and N and W). Fully expect to see the death band to set up where we typically see it (PSU land hooking around S and W). Probably see 4-5 inches, with a jackpot or two of 6, through this region as we should see some 12-1+ ratio snow. There is one thing that could possibly knock these totals down somewhat. And that is if they were to lose some of this to low level warmth and rain considering that the precip comes in hot and heavy from the start. Really don't expect to see that except for maybe a few spritzes initially. Cities are probably good for an inch or two as well though they could surprise if we can limit the low level warmth before the onset.

28 here.

Trends on all guidance overnight and early this morning is a further north track, maybe outside of the Euro. It is cold now, but temps will warm today ahead of the developing low. With a further north/closer in track, the low level warmth will take longer to displace SE of I-95, and time is short for this one. Looks like a good thump for N central and maybe NE MD this evening. Looks very meh here with maybe a brief period of snow at the end. I should have stuck to my original plan and chased lol. Still might.
