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.

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

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.

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!

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

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.
