Just did a quick look at the 6z NAM model. Showing a bit warmer. Or more precisely low a bit inland. That is not a good snow potential for DC; look for the Appalachians to be hammered.

When will they know with reasonable certainty? I hate to overbuy food if I don't have to. Tuesday is my normal shopping day.

You shouldn't overbuy. Power might go out. Just focus on non-perishables.

"With temperatures forecast to be right around freezing, the snow could be quite wet, raising the possibility of tree limbs coming down and hitting power lines'

Prediction: they say it's just so darn tricky to call and set a range of 0 to 12 inches.

That isn't correct.. I have an event Tuesday night so I am watching this like a hawk. The lowest is more like 4 inches..

PP here- ok I realize I replied to a CWG "nowcast" group. They NEVER give any forecast until the damn snow/rain/whatever is clobbering us. I was reading on real forecaster sites.
