Here I am driving around in my EV purchased during the snow drought for the first time.

Make it about a mile and realize the snow is collecting nicely on the hood as I am driving. and not melting since no engine heat.

I am wondering what happens in a REAL snow while driving?

Latest HRRR - snow end by 1-2 am.  That makes more sense, but it isn't very reliable outside of a few hours.

Ends for good? That doesn’t jive so much with some of our other guidance. Especially recent runs that have enhanced and back build in connection with the low moving NE

It’s honestly hard to tell. Many of the globals seem to blossom more precip over us from the coastal, so it’s hard to gauge when it ends by just looking at the back edge on the radar. Hoping it snows through 12z tomorrow.

Just not doing much here.  Radar keeps showing very light returns to my SW.  I know I'm being impatient but just stinks to have hours of snow, no accums and people already reporting SN and roads pummeled.  

 

Guess the silver lining is that it IS snowing.

Yeah, feel the same way down here around Fredericksburg.

If you try to compare DC metro snow with people out in Frederick you're gonna have a bad time.  We'll get our couple of inches once the sun goes down and it'll be fine.

It hasn’t started accumulating again on paved surfaces here either. Finally starting to show again on my car after I cleaned it off earlier around 11.
