Im in the green and its delivering...

Id say moderate snow now bordering on moderate-heavy..... visibility reduced drastically

nice.. was thinking you dont get out of 25+ dbz echoes with light snow. people with less are probably nearer the edge. overall it's good for dc and northeast i think... that stuff sw should pull through etc. not a lot of evidence the whole area of light snow back to the bay has much life -- spotty etc, but at least we have a nice potential to lay down some snow.

It would seem that from the surface info I can find that this low is WAY off the coast. Was it modeled that way? And, from looking at radars, it would seem a bunch of forcast snow totals are in trouble.

not that far off.. if you miss the dry slot and arent too far west you're getting crushed. nyc looks sweet.

Were still screwed in the Valley though. Deform band sets up just east of us. We see nothing. Worst week of tracking ever. Absolutely the most disgusting storm of my life.

Reminds me of March '09. I sat and watch that storm for days, then on Sunday, sat under constant virga all day long, only to get up the next morning with nothing, all the while watching basically a blizzard unfold in DC.

Everyone was talking about Nina's and temp outlooks, and I said months ago that I was more worried about a lack of precip than I was cold. Of course, it is early, the winter appears to be doing some strange things, so we still have alot to look forward to.
