  1. That was a great storm. I was at Millersville Univ at the time working 2nd shift IT. We were really sweating the northern edge leading up to the event. A lot of the model guidance was giving the Mason-Dixon Line about 8"-12", but Harrisburg less than 5". You could tell CTP was really sweating it because their AFD was very conservative. The Thursday night before the storm, the 12z guidance came in much snowier across the board and the watches went up almost as soon as the Euro OP finished. The 00z guidance came in and boom warnings. I wound up driving back to Philly early for the holiday and my graduation was canceled.
  2. As others have said several times, namely @WxUSAF, do not look at OP models past D10. This is especially true with potentially volatile pattern changes.
  3. Nice to see the ridge over Idaho remain and even sharpen up a bit on the EPS. That's always a good sign for east cost snow.
  4. Sunset tonight should be amazing.
  5. I'm at the Greenbriar Resort from Jan 5 - 8. Hoping to see some snow in the mountains.
  6. Makes for the best sun rises and sun sets.
  7. Hopefully the reload is short lived and we can maintain something good through Jan 10 - 15.
  8. Kind of makes you wonder if things are behaving like an El Nino base state (preview of next winter?).
  9. About 5:45 pm. It's PEPCO turf, but the line service some BGE territory in Howard and Baltimore Counties. It's entirely possible the flickering was the smart grid technology struggling to adjust to power demands so rapidly.
  10. Approximately 90k w/o power. Expect protracted restoration. Get the candles out.
  11. Tucker now has a better 3-point percentage than LaBron.
  12. Seems like a possible.high wind threat Wed into Thusday, no? We do seem to do that well.
  13. Those 400 ft will make a huge difference during snow events.
