@robertmacIntos3 @capitalweather Recency bias? DC is known for years of storms that underperform. Happened to get two events in less than a week that overperformed. -Dan, CWG

@capitalweather I think you should do a study on how many times your forecast for snow is low and the BOOM scenario happens. I just take what you say and multiply by 2.

@DrShepherd2013 @DrShepherd2013 Wouldn’t a simple change to the cone of uncertainty for NHC to consider be to just not show a center track line until maybe ~48 hours before landfall?

Could you imagine with a hurricane approaching if we stopped collecting weather data or running forecast models because it was a holiday weekend? Our health system should be as automated as our weather forecasting system for 24/7/365 coverage. @DrShepherd2013 @DrLeanaWen

Incredible: Our US health system is so feeble there is no Covid reporting this weekend. Sometime around Tuesday morning they’ll turn the machines back on and look at the numbers? I predict further increases in hospitalization and HCW depletion, hope the system doesn’t collapse

NYC new hospitalizations for the past 8 days: 198 220 200 193 214 143 142 176 There's growth, but it's hardly a disaster (today only 12% higher than last Thursday) and hard to distinguish from modest growth that had already been occurring under Delta.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor

Here’s a look at Thursday’s #COVID19 indicators: • 13,037,797 vaccine doses administered • 198 new hospitalizations • 11,499 new cases  ➡️ nyc.gov/vaccinefinder  ➡️ nyc.gov/covidtest

Thoughtful perspective from @stillmand: How extreme weather & the pandemic have exposed fatal flaws in science communication The rub: We have great science but lives are being lost due to gaps in "last mile" of communication between messenger & end user: wapo.st/3AT2d5C

Bad news is, still much room for improvement in model forecasts of clouds, per horrible NAM hi-res and GFS forecasts for today (top two images on left). Good news is, recent upgrades to HRRR model might be paying dividends, per solid HRRR forecast (bottom left). @capitalweather

Side roads and sidewalks getting snow-covered in Rockville, but not too slippery, at least not enough to keep puppy from his first walk in the snow. @capitalweather

It’s so nice outside in the DMV right now. The brilliant blue skies and warm sunshine almost (*almost*) make you forget about all things #2020.

Looking to the west, these intense storms approaching DC, I-95 and Baltimore have storm tops over 30,000 feet, indicative of heavy rain, damaging winds and possibly hail. @capitalweather
