i think that initial thump that exceeded expectations really set us up well. now FGEN is coming in and much of the area is eyeing down 1.25-2"/hr rates. sleet line coming north should also give us some heavy snow with better flake size i imagine 

The flake size will increase and should be pretty solid, but this evening will be the best time frame for larger flakes!

I'm getting that same effect looking out the window. You don't even need a light. It seems like it's increasing still. It's getting wild out there. 

The radar looks insanely good right now and is setting up for a thorough beat down for several hours probably starting in the next hour or so. I'm hoping we can hit a foot!

DC is ready for a boom scenario. Reel in the 14 inches Jebman prophesied.

Confirmed. I’m a couple hours ahead of you as per radar, and this is a beat down here. After a slow start, I’m catching up

you’l get even heavier rates than I’m getting here, probably

You'll hit a foot. Maybe even a couple inches over.

Huh?  You said this pattern wouldn't produce.  I'm confused?

It kind of isn't. I am fringed,  NYC is watching. The confluence is leading to heartbreak in many areas to your north. DC lucked their way into this one. 

But anyway.

Dusting here, hope to get some better rates. Looks like we get some but the heavy stuff stays to my south.

26° and mod snow in Arlington. Haven’t measured  but would guess close to 4

 Just went out for a quick 10 min jebwalk... measured just over 4".  Matches the two LSRs near me below and what you two reported above

It's going to be crazy here soon. Rates have picked up last 10-15 minutes. That stuff out by you is juicy. You should definitely make a good catch up in the next 2-3 hrs, although I might be leveling with you soon on rates. Just a great storm so far for our areas.
