How much snow could the D.C. region get Friday night?

Presidents’ Day weekend is approaching, and historically the period around the holiday has been prime time for D.C. snowstorms, with double-digit accumulations in some years. A blockbuster storm isn’t likely this time around, but we do have the chance for a few inches of snow Friday evening into early Saturday morning.

There are some ingredients in place that would favor accumulating snow, including the anticipated storm track and overnight timing. But there are also a couple of reasons for caution still two days out, including whether temperatures will be cold enough to maximize an already somewhat limited potential for accumulation.

The electric co. tree contractor has been in these parts for 8 months. Every road imaginable. This week, 4" wet snow and multiple outages all over the place! What the Sam heck is the tree crew doing?

After 22 hours the electric company calls up and says it will be fixed in another 24 hours! Two hours later the electric comes back on. I don't think any of them know what they're doing!
