***Official 2012/2013 Winter Weather Thread***

Gripe, gripe, gripe, at least y'all SAW snow, not a single flake fell here

[Buford]

people aren't ripping the predictions because some towns 30-40 miles west of D.C. got hit. The maps they focused on were D.C. and the North/West. Rockville, Gaithersburg....and then North up to Bmore. That's where they kept doubling down through the midday.

Look who hasn't tweeted in over 12 hours.

Is it safe to assume the chances for any winter weather are dead until next year?

Pretty safe until Nuclear Winter sets in.

Probably. That Winter Storm Nemo would've been a helluva one, but NY and Boston got all of its punch. I think this was winter's last hurrah and it's good that the DC area got in on it.

Sigh I despise Weather Channel.

Long Island is getting 2-4 inches tonight and than I think that will be it for winter. Any snow that falls will completely disappear this weekend and it will be wait til next winter after that.

ahahahaah that is pretty accurate. i can not count how many times in my life Fairfax County has canceled school because of a rumored snowstorm, and then it just rains that day.

To be fair, even at 11am and possibly later, forecasters were still saying that we'd get 8-12 inches in Germantown. We ended up with maybe 1-2 inches of snow on the grass, and none on the road.

Yea it was barely sticking to the grass in Arlington. Oh well, weather.com says a high of 57 on Saturday which will be nice for the tailgate

What we just missed... Pic taken at intersection of rt 664 and Blue Ridge Parkway, near Wintergreen VA. Wintergreen got 28" of snow yesterday.

66 degrees here in Denver today. people are out and about in shorts and t-shirts.

Tomorrow night were supposed to get 14 inches of snow and a low of 18. Gonna be a 58 degree temperature drop over the course of the next 30 hours

Do the schools ever get canceled there with 14 inches of snow? or is it just what denver is used to?

14 inches would definitely do it, but it usually takes 7-8 inches or more to shut things down. Dept of Transportation out here is built to handle a lot of snow. They don't even salt the roads out here, plow trucks dump magnesium chloride on the streets.

We got 6 inches of snow last week, right in the middle of the morning rush hour commute. Federal/local gov't offices and most school schools didn't even get a delay
