AdamHLG Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 We are in Costa Rica the past week on vacation. Regardless of the outcome of this storm, the fact that we planned this trip 6 months ago and we are under a winter storm watch and fly home tomorrow for a Sunday storm is absolutely PERFECT timing which never happens for me. I usually miss the storm while away. Thanks for the great commentary as I randomly checked on it this week laying on a pool chair watching monkeys play in the trees. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rvarookie Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I’m still going to get lit for the games and I’ll make my chili and smoke enough to look out window for something that may not be there 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChesterfieldVa80 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I was originally planning on going to Massanutten near Harrisonburg to ski on Sunday (6-10) was looking likely there until now.... Now I'm contemplating going to the Homestead in Bath county instead. Bath county looks like maybe one of the few places in Virginia to see a "mostly clean" snowstorm? Thoughts? Thanks in advance!

GATECH Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Skiing resort itself is meh, I recommend the spring fed pool and hot tub while it’s snowing. They will likely be a jackpot in Va. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to go all the way to Bath just go the extra hour to Snowshoe. They are going to get pummeled with backside fluff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 or he did see it, and decided to toss it.he’s running the DT model at this point - no OP guidance from the last day shows quite what he’s showing — those upper end totals are gonna be tough to hit.

Not to say it’s wrong and I admire the boldness I suppose, but… He hasn't done well at all this year. Way under, and way over for the last 2 storms, but he used to do really well with his maps. Back in 2013-2015, he was often forecasting way higher than anyone else and was pretty accurate most of the time. Here's to hoping he might have a magical DT model and get this one right! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m starting to think the mountains will get more snow Monday AM into Tuesday AM from upslope than the WAA portion. That strong of a LP with the NW winds will really crank the upslope. Regardless should be a fun Sunday and Monday. Glad you got there safely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmagnet Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I want to clarify something. I know that the snow looks to be changing to more sleet and warm up to rain west of DC, but the ground will still be considerably cold for this. How significant will the sleet and freezing rain be in the I-95 corridor? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSSN+ Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Cold air is always slow to move in and fast to move out. Models have temps in the mid to upper 20s in northern MD and southern PA right now and it’s still 32-34. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
