From the Mid Altantic forum. This bodes even better for folks in this subforum. -
Alert MCPS MCPS, including the Virtual Academy, will open two hours late Thursday, Dec. 15, due to anticipated emergency weather conditions. More information at www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org

This is classic @psuhoffman how we win. As @WxUSAF said, 3" - 6" in December is climo and then some.

Take a look at the hole in blizzard conditions in SW South Dakota. Imagine if that occurred here. Ji would have the meltdown to crash the board.

Ice map seems reasonable. Last updated 9:44 am this morning.

@MillvilleWx excellent write up as always. Your thoughts mirror mine as well. My only two questions are: 1.) Does cloud cover minimize our high temps and we bust low. 2.) With this starting overnight, does the lack of insolation mean ice accretes more effectively?

Looks like LWX extending the WWA for the Mason-Dixon counties until 4pm tomorrow. Makes sense, dews seem a bit lower than forecast, it's cloudy today and surfaces are chilled.

Icing is inherently tricky for forecast. This link was posted a few pages ago, but am posting again. Would encourage members to book mark this: https://training.weather.gov/wdtd/courses/woc/winter/fcst-hzds/ice-storm-accum/presentation_html5.html It's only 20 - 25 min and well worth your time.

Both are bad for aquifers and watersheds. We over brine and over salt too much. In Maryland, SHA has been reducing their usage of these products, but a major problem in Maryland (which is the authority having jurisdiction for the Potomac River, not Virginia) is nonpoint pollution from private companies over treating parking lots.

All it takes is 2 degrees colder to cause a problem and a wail of people to say "there was no warning".

Thank you for the excellent write-up @brooklynwx99. Really appreciate your contributions.

NAM would imply advisory level event for everyone N&W of I-95 for IP/ZR.

My K-8 was #253, high school was #322.

Schools in Philly are had a number and would call into a KYW 1060 AM in the morning with their posture (2hr delay, modified Kindergarten, etc.). As a kid, you'd be up at 6am waiting on your number to be called. It was like winning the lottery:

Blocking is great, but you need an antecedent high pressure over Quebec to force northeast flow and the low and mid levels to lock in the cold. We don't have that so it let's the coastal rush south/southeast winds in and flip us to liquid. -
Watch this be an event where we clear out after dusk Wednesday for a few hours and then wet bulb like 2 or 3 degrees colder and jackpot. We're good for one of those a year.
