margusity says the models are continuing to intensify the storm and move it east.  CWG as of this morning said there's a 15" chance of 4" of snow inside the beltway.

Loudoun and Fredrick are now under winter storm watches.

latest GFS model just echoed the NAM, this is going to be a big mid-atlantic storm, like last year Philly will be the center.
But don't they have a World Series parade this weekend?  4 aces RUKiddingme?

Well, it's spitting the rain down here in Fairfax County.  Hell of a nice day to move everything we own.  :(

It's snowing pretty good here... We have probably an inch or so. I went to a HS football game in Frostburg last night, snowed the whole game. It was pretty awesome.

The line must be near Dulles somewhere.   We keep going between snow, a sleet looking thing and rain.

Yep. off and on sleet.  Looked out a half an hour ago and thought that was going to keep going, but it stopped and just started as I'm typing.  Just not quite cold enough for steady stuff.
