The nation's capital is now under a blizzard watch, the first watch of its kind issued in advance of Winter Storm Jonas. Now is the time to prepare for Winter Storm Jonas, which is expected to kick into high gear Friday and pummel parts of the East through the weekend with heavy accumulations of snow and ice. Strong winds will likely add to the threat of power outages and may also bring serious coastal flooding along parts of the Atlantic coast.
The National Weather Service issued the blizzard watch late Wednesday morning for Washington, D.C., and nearby Baltimore. The watch is valid Friday afternoon through late Saturday night.
Earlier Wednesday, the first winter storm watches were posted in parts of Kentucky, West Virginia and adjacent states. Most of those are valid Thursday night through Saturday.

Yep. It’s obviously warming catastrophically because it is so cold and snowy from coast to coast in the US.

I can remember when The Weather Channel actually gave the weather forecast.

They're naming winter storms now? The Weather Channel is, much to the consternation of the National Weather Bureaucracy. I love it. Too funny.
Maybe Obama will issue a decree banning storm-naming.

Be aware of the storm track. Plan on being early in the day. A few miles one way, or another will make all the difference in timing and impact.
So far the various models are very consistent, which is very unusual. The weather gang’s much better than Accuweather, or the Weather Channel.

Nowadays, it sometimes seems to be The Anything But The Weather Channel.

We’re watching closely. Campout go/no-go is Friday night.
We’re taking 20 boys so I don’t want a 2 hour drive to turn into 6 hours.
