Okay. I'll choose to believe you rather than all the meteorologists and all the models coming in. An anonymous person on the internet is the ultimate authority. After all, we're living in a world of "alternative facts" now.



Ok but CWG says this one is hard to predict because we're right on the snow/rain line. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2017/03/12/heavy-snow-likely-in-d-c-area-monday-night-paralyzing-blizzard-from-new-york-to-boston/?utm_term=.61608cc03daf


"The main American forecast model, the GFS, forecasts a large amount of snow for Washington, while the European model – which is the highest performing – suggests a much lower impact event because of rain mixing in." The NAM has the immediate D.C. area at 2-4".


Jay says euro model shows over a foot ...?

Yep. Typical DC hysteria for what will be a rain event. Have you seen what the grocery stores look like??

Loudoun could get more snow but I'm not expecting much in Alexandria and D.C.

If you think a 75 degree march followed by a historic march snowstorm isn't climate change in action I don't know what to tell you.


Historic March snowstorm? Historic? Really? Now you are really over the top.


Not PP, but I also read that some locations would likely be getting record-breaking amounts of snow for this time of year. That's what they mean by "historic".


I leave lived in Northern Va my entire life. Some years are warm, some snowy, some mixed. Looking at weather over a short period of time (100-200 years) is silly and unscientific. I have been alive just over 40 years, climate has not "changed" in that span of time. Do we impact the environment, yes we do. Do we do it on the scale that climate change belivers are fretting about. I don't see any evidence, evidence, not models, that show that.

It's just too warm for a major snow storm. Even if the temp drops tomorrow, it won't drop enough and stay cold long enough for a serious snow storm.


+1,000,000


I don't think that means what you think it means.


Yes I do.

If they are waffling like that, it is indeed an uncertain forecast.



For D.C. And points east maybe. West of 95 is a pretty solid bet.

Also CWG literally always hedges.


It's not just that they hedge. They take it to a comical level.

Yep. Typical DC hysteria for what will be a rain event. Have you seen what the grocery stores look like??


Big buildings, full of food?

I hope you get snowed in without toilet paper.

Just got back from gas station and grocery store (my normal Sunday routine). It was a bit crazy at both. I am not sure why possible snow on Tuesday means people need extra food. How many people regularly do their shopping on Tuesday?
