I think 4” should be relatively easy. 5” is stretching it. 
 

Eta: Looking at the radar now things seem to be sinking South pretty fast. If that continues we won’t hit 4”

Dag nabbit...well, that was a nice little bonus we didn't even think we'd get. Actually looks pretty nice outside. Onto the next!

OPM already "called it" at "Status: Open - Suggesting 2 Hour Delayed Arrival - With Option for Unscheduled Leave or Unscheduled Telework. Given critical work being done across the federal government, please consult with your agency for final guidance."

Since WTOP and others don't have this, I am not even sure OPM knows HOW to close the government at this point.

There were numerous drivers heading INTO Maryland from VA that also gridlocked RT5 on the hills because their Dodge Chargers were spinning out and going forward....this was at 5pm.....The massive traffic mess the day before the January 2016 blizzard ALSO happened this same way....numerous MARYLAND drivers with vehicles and tires that spun out and stalled and trapped numerous others because their vehicles and driving skills were ZERO on the 1 to 10 scale

That event was a classic flash freeze. I still have the Google maps image saved somewhere showing the entire DC and Baltimore beltways just a solid red ring of frustration.

lmao those damn dodge chargers! You guys need a border checkpoint to control all the Maryland rifraff from clogging up your pristine unplowed roads. :snowman:

What about all the moisture in southern WV/VA/KY/TN?af658710ffa8e5d7ce944b190f59bc7d.jpg

There's a metric ton more behind that, too!

I am having a very good day, because it's THE MID ATLANTIC getting CRUSHED by heavy snow! It's nighttime and it's piling up!

 

Let's say Dale City has 6. It is probably nearer 7 tho. 10.5 in Jan, another 2 inches from another storm and now 6-7 inches, my old stomping grounds are officially above average for the season!

I’m not sure I have ever seen that kind of statement …suggesting? The words Closed may be gone from OPM lexicon

Second time today.

Originally the Government was to "close at 2pm", then without even changing the timestamp it changed to "federal employees are suggested to leave no later than 2pm"

I am going to assume a crap ton of overworked HR people answering questions about if those hours are paid or not.
