Man if nothing else...I wanna get to 20.1" on the year. That is the normal (average) for BWI...and dang it we are so close. Only need 2.2 inches...so this map, verbatim, might be close to doing the trick, lol
Hey @North Balti Zen @nw baltimore wx @BaltimoreWxGuy Let's all meet in the northwest corner of the city, lololol How Baltimore gets the tiniest corner here is hilarious!
Yeah and yet if the storm tonight wasn't going to bomb out...the Monday storm would end up warmer anyway, right? So it's a bit of a trade...where only a weaker Monday storm can give us snow, lol
Then we know what to root for...lol Now was the last mod/strong modoki 2009-10? (I thought one of you had mentioned 2014 or 2015, but I could be mistaken). But if it was...c'mon we gotta be due soon, lolol
I guess you're right...I had assumed since we hadn't had any positive steps the last couple days that this one didn't have much of a chance... so what saves this threat?
(And you're right--I know bigger numbers can be a part of a lower average...although I would like to see just how many weak Niños actually produced above average!)
Yeah this one looks like a losing battle (particularly for the cities)...Figured we'd be trolled by finally getting a coastal track...but with not enough cold air around, lol So is this it, I'm guessing? If so...we certainly held true to the weak Niño average of 15"...lol (maybe 18" if we get 2-3 tomorrow morning!)
Yeah I mean this is probably the best we could've gotten out of this event (aside from the dryslot hours, lol). Will still have snowcover to enjoy for another, er...24-48 hours? Lol
(Suprised ya didn't mention 2009/10, 2003, etc, haha) Wouldn't say storms like this one are THE reality, but rather what's more common. A big storm can become the reality anytime of year...but the likelihood? Very inconsistent, lol
I had a personal forecast of 2-4 inches for Balt. City....and sure enough we got exactly 4"! Lol Of course there's a good dose of "what could have been"-itis here...but still not a bad event!
If this were going to be all snow this dry slot wouldn't be as much of an issue...but obviously, since this will eventually changeover to rain, we needed to squeeze as much out of this period of time as we could...because the mixing line marches, lol
Now I'm hoping our slow start here in Baltimore won't hurt us later with the totals! Probably got about 1.5 inches so far...can't see us getting 4-6 unless we're supposed to stay snow longer?
Yeah, I mean...the snow greed in me wants to be jealous, but...just being able to go outside and be surrounded by it...(and using my shovel for the first time since 2016)...nice start to our prime climo! Can't wait to see what's on tap in the coming weeks!
