Update 11:52: THUNDERSNOW HAS BEEN REPORTED AT QUANTICO! You hear me?? THUNDERSNOW I SAY!

Update 11:38AM: (From NWS Senior Meteorologist Logan Johnson): This will now easily be the biggest December snowstorm on record in DC. It is very important that people stay OFF the roads and also that people report their snow totals to the National Weather Service at lwx-report@noaa.gov. Heaviest bands of snow arriving right now in Arlington/DC area so snowfall totals will pick up quickly.

On a side note, DCA is closed until at least 1pm.

UPDATE 9:25AM: We are now in a blizzard warning until 6pm this evening! This means winds over 35mph in addition to our substantial snowfall (up to 22″), as well as very reduced visibility.

Quick snow recap of the latest:

We could see 9″ by morning and UP TO 2 feet of snow by Sunday morning. That is kah-ray-zee.

Blizzard warnings have been issued for areas east of the city, including La Plata and Annapolis, MD.

We are all in a winter storm warning through Sunday morning. 30 HOURS LEFT!

There is no milk left in the DC metro area. At all. Like for real.

DC has issued a snow emergency starting at 7am, so MOVE YOUR CARS.

Nancy Pelosi had to leave Copenhagen early to make sure she could get back to the Hill before DC is swallowed up by fluffy white stuff.

It’s very possible that Metro may be an underground ONLY system starting tomorrow. Map and details here.

Virginia is already in a state of emergency.

DC area news stations will have up to the minute coverage starting at 2am and will give you updated reports every minute on the minute. Team coverage expected at every area grocery store and intersection.
