About 4 inches in Silver Spring. It's not so much the the snow, the freezing rain and sleet made it worse.

Cold I don't mind so much, but think snow is a pain in the ass, so this has been a great winter for me.

After a week of hype


I like his page, it's informative, but he keeps running into the issue of hyping a storm 10 days out and getting everyone's hopes up. Then as you can see, the closer it got, the less likely it was happening but was still clinging to the 1% chance that it would.

It's that same kind of hope that exists in being Wizards fan.

Snowstorm update. This is potentially a 2 wave event. 1st wave gives us rain changing to a fairly healthy dumping of snow Monday Night and Tuesday. The biggest question is...what happens to the leftover energy(wave 2). Does it consolidate enough to crank up another coastal for us or does it take it out to sea. If it heads towards us, that could potentially give us a blockbuster. Most models had it going out to sea yesterday but our trying to bring it back a bit. The 18z NAM is very aggressive as you can see in the loop. The NAM at 84 hours isnt really a useful model but sometimes it picks up on trends. Lots to watch this week.

Last nights European run was historical. Could be nasty commute this afternoon rush hour as rain changes to sleet then snow. Then overnight into Wednesday and Wednesday night is a slow moving crush job. Still going 5-10 but upside is very much in play and I would say likely . I think Loudoun and most other schools in the burbs close till Thursday. For Loudoun county, ive been telling my friends privately since last week this storm could produce double digits...so well see :)

So Ji has over 31K people following his FB page. There's a large audience of poor schlubs who sit around all winter wishing for snow. We'll see if this storm amounts to something.

What does dont @ me even mean? Dont laugh at me? Dont hit me up on social media? seriously dont know. Im just an old guy. :lol: :lol:

but anyway....you haters!!....You jealous haters!!! Hands prolly has more followers than you guys as well.


Here's a hint folks. Put some damn content together. Stop quoting twitter and other people's content and create your own!! Put it out there!! Its ok to be wrong and its OK to put your foot in your mouth. And its ok to be right and brag about it. humble brag? whatever do whatever you need to do for yourself to convince yourself that whatever your style, its ok to put it out there.


FTR, i got over 40K on just one business instagram. 30K on another. and over 3K on FB. <--without trying!! Ive got another 2-3 K on my personal gram. :lol: :lol:

twitter is the only one where i barely have any because I just joined last year and dont try at all to get followers.<--twitter is not really a way to get business for me. So i just talk crap to politicians. I Didn't really try on IG either but i ran some promos on my business side and people follow to get the deals.


Seriously, tho. stop hatin' and try participatin'!
like i said, its a full rebuild.

Jeebus. Yesterday was such a beautiful day; an almost incredible difference in just a half a day. It's coming down hard in my route - Gaithersburg to Bethesda. It's after 9 AM, and I'm the only 1 in an office that usually has about 25 (100 in pre-COVID daze). Ji/Jay nailed it, per usual.

Yeah, finally a cold day down here in Houston. That after...

Speaking of winter heat, how warm has this December been? By the month’s end it will rank not just as Houston’s warmest December in more than 120 years of records, but also among the top 10 warmest Novembers.
