great livers think a like


btw the new gfs prints just came out and show 20-24" for dc....20" is probably a mean to use.....the track of both the coastal low and the ull low are basically as good as it gets for a historic storm....it shows a 984mb low off the delmarva....which is strong as farg

this could now be a top 10 all time storm

Greatest storm of the decade, IGY?

IGY is 1000% right about this. Bars during snow storms are the farging tits. Everyone is giddy to get farged up and in good spirits. It's always a blast.

College dorms are defintely 2nd to that, had some great snow'd in times.  I love driving in snow, that shtein is fun.

Greatest storm of the decade, IGY?

the millers crossing of storms

[PhillyGirl]

Mid-Atlantic As disruptive as the storm will be in the Midwest and Plains, plan on "no travel" in the Virginias, central and southern Pennsylvania, the Delmarva and much of New Jersey Friday night into Saturday.

Much of this same area will get a foot or more of snow. Accumulations have the potential to reach 2 feet in some areas, matching or exceeding snowfall from the December blizzard.

Since this storm's duration will be less than 24 hours, snowfall rates may reach 3 inches per hour. Storm crews may not be able to keep up.

If you travel during the storm, you will run the risk of getting stuck on the road or waiting for your flight at an airport.

The intense snowfall combined with plunging temperatures and increasing wind are going to result in an all-out blizzard in northern and coastal areas with blowing and drifting snow.

Roads may go from wet to snow covered with near-zero visibility in a matter of minutes.

the millers crossing of storms

That would be awesome if true. I'd love to be able to turn off a storm after five minutes of not liking it.

people who hate millers crossing or the wire are either horrible americans or great middle americans

[rjs246]

What's the wire?

[General_Failure]

I disliked both, so I must be the awesomest American ever.

At H Street bars, the more it snows, the more you save

Are you praying for snow? Join the club. If you're able to venture out to H Street NE this weekend despite the coming Snowpocalypse, five bars are banding together to offer a wintry happy hour on Friday and Saturday nights. For every six inches of snow dumped on D.C., you can take a dollar off any drink at Little Miss Whiskey's, Jimmy Valentine's Lonely Hearts Club, the Palace of Wonders, the Pug or Sticky Rice. This means that if the Capitol Weather Gang is right and we get 20 inches of snow, you can subtract $3 from each beer on your tab.
