dumping...everything caved. Time to pile up as much as we can as fast as we can

Bring it up here. Not that far

[wxdude64]

Flake size has decreased to a normal size one, but boy is it coming down right now! Among the heaviest of the day, I MAY sneak in a 15 or 16 inch total at this rate!

[peribonca]

2.5 inches so far in la Plata, 3.5 inches in Colonial Beach. Double digits or bust

[dallen7908]

Just fell below freezing here (31.9) and on cue, despite the disconnect between air temperature and the surface,  the driveway is beginning to cave.   Moderate snow. 

[Weather Will]

30. Light snow continues.  Mulch and grass covered.Sidewalks starting to cave.

This should be a great snow for Bob Chill. Has he checked in?

He's been fighting sleet per earlier posts.

That stuff out by Culpeper looks to be heading in the right direction.

[hsq]

Huntingtown, Calvert County. Really coming down hard. 

[SomeguyfromTakomaPark]

Incoming for DC metro.  Should be legit SN+ I'm thinking based on all these reports.

Not sure it’ll help too much but you can see a surge north on radar the past few frames.

I see it with the stuff down by DC but that has no chance of getting north of 70. I’m looking at the northern edge of legit snow that runs from Martinsbirg WV to Westminster MD right now. That’s been sinking southeast and I see no indication it will press north. Radar marches those HRRR runs that had very little up here. The models they gave this area 2-4” show that northern edge being 20 miles further north and not sinking south right now.

So nice to have everything white again

29.7 and very pretty out. Cracking a Troegs Blizzard of Hops.

8 miles is so close yet so far away

[gymengineer]

This is already the lowest visibility snow since 1/3/22 here in North Bethesda. I wonder if later on, we'll hit 1/2016 type of SN+.

[George BM]

Up to 0.7" here so far with light/moderate snow. Small flakes. Pavement is starting the whitening process. (Herndon, VA)

[LP08]

First Jebwalk in the books with a beer in hand.  Roads slowly caving in Arlington.

[Jebman]

Hey anyone know how much snow has accumulated in the Dale City region?

Got a rum and coke going and snow is falling.  Time to just enjoy this and hope everyone sees snow fall in their back yard to make things look pretty
