I wouldn't be surprised. I've never been a conspiricy theorist until now. We are watching the modern day Robber Barrons be made or enriched. |

| Ugh. I cannot deal. I feel like I have not been in any kind of routine since Christmas. |

| The number of inches totaling the course of 3 days is continuously dropping. It went from 18 inches to 9 and I expect it to drop lower as we get closer. Rain is coming our way! |

I’m seeing slightly higher temps and more rain and mixed precip as well. 1-3” followed by mostly rain and sleet. Fingers crossed it stays on this track. I don’t want a bunch of school cancellations to affect the kids’ Valentines Day activities at school and they already have off Presidents Day and the 3 hour early release for FCPS! |

No. It sucks. Now, we no longer can easily find what we need in Off Topic. It seems there are fewer weather posts, and the few we have are scattered. [NP] |

| Any updates today? And did anyone even see any sleet/ice/anything frozen today which apparently necessitated a late start for all the school districts?? |

My app says 8-9 inches of snow on Tuesday. |

| I’m seeing 3-5” on Tuesday, wintry mix Wednesday, rain Thursday/Friday. CWG seems to agree at this point: https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025/02/06/dc-snow-chances-winter-storm-potential/ |

Sorry, I didn’t realize CWG was always behind the paywall! Here’s the relevant bit: At the moment, the European and American models show almost identical snowfall probabilities, which are approximately: Chance of more than 1 inch: 85 percent. Chance of more than 3 inches: 50-60 percent. Chance of more than 6 inches: 20-25 percent. “Tuesday is our best chance of seeing a modest snowstorm. Something in the 3- to 6-inch range seems possible,” said Wes Junker, Capital Weather Gang’s winter weather expert. “But that’s definitely not a sure bet, as any northerly trend in the storm track could bring warmer air and more of a wintry mix, which would reduce snow accumulation potential.” And then they say that any storms after Tues seem more likely to bring a wintry mix or just straight up rain as it’s looking to be a few degrees too warm for a big snow event. |
