Its a challenge to read the forecast discussions but also very enlightening because you get more of a sense of the meteorologists's thinking and not the weather babes with their perky pointing.
In any event, looks like DC-NY will get pretty well hammered. Stay warm, drink lots of buttered rum and be careful!
Wish we were getting some snow...we are just getting that stupid ice. Watta mess.

What kind of show depths is everyone seeing?
I went outside a short time ago, and it appeared that there was 5 - 6 inches of new snow, with heavy snow continuing.

Wish we were getting some snow...we are just getting that stupid ice. Watta mess.Same here in the Cincinnati area, 1/2" of ice and up to 6" of snow by Monday noon. Snow isn't to bad but this ice is the pits.
I hear my neighbor outside scraping ice off his car windows so he can go out. I'm getting cabin fever already but I think the neighbor is nutty for trying to go out now.

Here is a list of February Mid-Atlantic Snowstorms from Intellicast. The 1979 storm was called the President's Day Snowstorm. I had forgotten that, but we had 24 inches in Lake Ridge.

Now I feel guilty. I just heard another car outside in the apartment complex parking lot. A tenant called at 6AM this morning to let me know water was coming through her bathroom ceiling. I called the tenant above her apartment to see if he had any idea why. He overflowed the toilet. I was kind of annoyed because I had been awakened by the call so early. I asked if he had a plunger, when he said no, I told him not to flush the toilet again until he got a plunger. I asked him to come to the office during business hours today and we would supply him with a new plunger. I just saw him taking a plunger out of his jeep so I guess he went to the store.

I just checked the weather for my area. Hammonton, NJ is suppose to get 16.4 inches of snow. They predicted it to start at 1:00 PM this afternoon.
They got that one wrong, it is snowing like the dickens right now.

Thanks for the link. In thinking about it, that snowstorm must be the one where we and what seemed like half of northern Virginia took refuge in a restaurant in McLean then know as the Joshua Tree. Suburbanites leaving the district couldn't drive any further. We had to stay there for hours until VDOT had plowed the streets and we could get home. A man who worked for the "agency" as he called it joined us at our table. That was a storm!

Here in Southern MD (Solomons) we have about 2" ...but it keeps changing from freezing rain to snow.

And 8-9" in Silver Spring, and heavy. The kids are under strict orders not to have fun today, as my wife just cleaned the kitchen floor Friday.

It's there already? I thought it wasn't supposed to start here (central Jersey) until tonight. That means it'll be coming up the turnpike. I thought I had a couple hours to get some errands done.

At 8:30 a.m. I went outside with a ruler and measured 6 - 7 inches of new snow since last night, and 10 - 11 inches of snow accumulation. It's about 12 degrees F., with a 10 mph N wind, making the chill factor around 0 F.
The heavy snow continues.
I was always told that it never snowed heavily when it was this cold, but I guess I was told wrong.

Thought I'd take Jimmy Valentine's sister-in-law's 4 wheeler to get the paper about 0730 EST. Forget about it!. Bumper was ploughing snow.
