I have enjoyed watching this one all day. Has been a flizzard since about 10-11AM in Gainesville. A few moments were legit SN. Currently have a car topper and the sidewalks and street starting to cave a bit.

OMG the dangers of a 1/2", the commuters have gotten softer than Charmin.

Have you seen how DC/Baltimore area drivers react to 2 snowflakes in the air? Advisory warranted for nothing else than moronic driving. DC area folks will find a way to get into a 15 car pileup on a dry, sunny day. Apocalyptic traffic ensures with 5 drops of rain or a 1-2 snowflakes. 

It’s nothing to do with the supposed inability of DC/Baltimore drivers to drive in the snow. It’s very cold and a quick coating can result in sheets of ice on plenty of surfaces as cars drive on the powder and compress it.

That explains why we didn’t get the WWA. We don’t have that problem here because our horses and wagons don’t slide on snowy roads.

This seems right...there was a whole discussion here yesterday about a super crippling 1" snow in cold temps (DC area I think, forgot year)
