The Capital Weather Gang provides background and context for this weekend's ridiculously massive winter storm in the DC area, explaining their forecast, their method, and the outcome. Plus, the obligatory satellite photo of the damage.
Quote: Like most big storms around here, Snowmageddon arrived with only a brief period of lighter snows before it quickly started piling up. Unlike many storms in these parts, it began producing multi-hour snowfall rates of up to 2-3" per hour prior to midnight on the 5th. These continual super bands ejecting north around the strengthening low pressure off the coast contained whiteout conditions and instances of thundersnow, both typically associated with the most powerful winter storms on the East Coast.
