Right now it seems most are predicting nothing accumulating to 3 inches. At least we aren’t in NYC and the other areas expected to get blizzards and bomb cyclones.

To be fair, most meteorologists agree that this is one hell of a complex forecast for the DC area. I don't blame CWG for covering their behind, but their 0-8 inches forecast from last night did make me laugh out loud.


I look forward to the “this is so tricky to predict!” and hype-headline engagement farming over the next 36 hours.

Let’s let the robots do all the work. Wouldn’t it be great if we could each have our own robot and train it to be POA for everything we normally would do

OP here.

I know, right? The temperature is the biggest uncertainty. It's impossible to predict accurately when the temp is marginal and hovering between freezing and above freezing. If temps stay above freezing, we'll get no accumulation. If temps dip just a smidge, and the inverted trough is positioned just so, then we can get as much as much as 8-10 inches in parts of the region. It's one of those storms...



Temps like that create ice/sleet and not snow. This could be snow-crete part 2

It happened before, these late Feb early March huge snows. 1993, 1996, 2016. Sometimes they lead to crazy ice jams afterwards, causing flooding.
I’m so not looking forward to the shoveling.

Hopefully it will be too warm for anything to stick.

I doubt it, but it would be fun to get 30” of snow for the Sunday/Monday and then back to 50s later in the week.

I hope it's nothing.

I love a good snowstorm, but we already had one. And it sucked, because it was mostly ice.

Give me some chilly but blue sky days, and I'd be content.

Just for laughs. The GFS model is expected to be wrong.
