I just looked up where you live now...yeeks...do you have an accent now so you can fit in?

Lol. There's not much difference there. Just don't talk dmv fast lol. Wife and I love it here. Everything is amazing. Nice helpful people, no bs, fair cost for any service, low cost of living, and the scenery is off the chain. I traded 5" of climo so to do it and I'd prob trade a few more if I had to lol.

Can someone post the model porn we saw 4 days ago? If we are pretending, we need some visuals. :D

 

I was rooting for you all the way. MD/DC/DE was my home for over fifty years so even though I don't live there anymore I do follow all your storms and live them vicariously. My snow-loving friends back "home" are of course disappointed too (thank goodness I didn't hype this one up like some on social media do.) Am waiting here in eastern N.C. to see how my winter storm warning turns out, a slop-fest for sure but worthy of a Jeb walk anyway, haha. Best wishes to all of you (and no, I don't use AccuWeather, I just saved this from one of the forums a while back.)

I guess if it is going to be super cold with any amount of precip falling the roads could get slick in spots. So far even the no good ICON was pretty close to getting the half inch line up to my backyard. I guess we have a little bit of time to see if this thing can make just a little more jog north or even better get others to show a capture

It may not be a classic Miller B Bob, but it SURE is showing a classic Miller B snow pattern out this way.

Agree 100% on that. We had some of this stuff happen in feb/Mar 2015. After the Vday mini blizzard, the tpv didn't leave our proximity for weeks. Couple progressive waves similar to this one got pac man'd to hell. One psu and highstakes will remember well. The cold dry air tore an arc out of the nw side so on paper it had the same vibe.

That was a weird underperformer too. It was too cold and dry. Radar didn't reflect reality much. Heavies were light. Snow quality sucked at times. Ground up flakes and sand. I worry a little about that tomorrow. Wouldn't come as a shock to get sub 10:1 on whatever qpf falls. 850/700 frontogen panel are pretty meager until you get towards RIC

We should all acknowledge as a group that, even if the NAMs are spectacularly wrong on this event, we’re going to miss them like deceased grandparents when they’re retired next year.   

Really? Tracking weather won’t be the same without them.

So then which meso models will take their place?

Still lurking here daily, after retiring to the Finger Lakes.  Since living here, the RGEM has been spot on within 48-72 hours. Not only with lake effect (usually avoiding this area, unfortunately) but with this past weekends storm.  Constantly showed us not getting above freezing.  Only model that did and was correct on snow totals.
