*Time Sensitive* Rt. 30 @ MD line in NE Carroll County has steady snow: https://chart.maryland.gov/video/video.php?feed=a5ffabd8008200d30050fa36c4235c0a

As soon as the heavier echoes shifted west, it went right to RA-

Mixed rain and snow in Reisterstown!

Possible debris ball on the Delmarva storm observed by DOX just now. New TOR from PHL is observed.

New TOR coming for Cecil shortly.

IMO, the two areas worth watching for Delmarva are the cell just north of Patuxent NAS and the other near Annapolis.

M 0.66" Reisterstown.

Yup. You can see the Pac puke lining up just in time for Christmas. After that it's probably lights out for the rest of the winter.

Feels like late September outside.

Ever so slightly optimistic about December. This time last year it was looking like lights out through January. Even seasonable conditions would be an improvement.

If the investigation proves this to be true, fire his ass and blackball him from the NFL. This is inexcusable.

Saving this one for posterity.

00z op EURO appears to have a couple hours of back end snow west of US 15 on Dec 5th.

They can't even spell ransomware properly. RIP to the poor tech that has to fix this.

Snow days for the marginal events are likely gone, but the events where power or Internet outages are possible are still going to be there.

Essentially HM is saying the perturbation of the jet stream is going to put us in a more favorable for high latitude blocking in the North Atlantic as we enter December. It's not set in stone, but it's better than what the past 2 winters have shown.

If the GFS/GGEM and Euro are to be believed. I think some folks in this subforum are going to see their first legit accumulating snow in the next 10 to 17 days. I would put money on it being N&W of I-81 for now.

Wonder what the resulting winters were in DCA/BWI/PHL when there was measurable snow in the first 10 calendar days of December.

GFS/GGEM and a couple of the 00z EPS have the first accumulating snow for you next week. Would be no more than an advisory level event, but it's snow.

Compared to this time last year, we're looking better. What I'm looking for from this upcoming event are a couple of thins: 1.) What model(s) handle this best. It could give us an idea as to what guidance can be trusted more this winter. 2.) Is this going to be a model fantasy, where nothing really happens. 3.) Is this going to be a kick-the-can event where it winds up being delayed, etc. 4.) Will a fluke pattern at the start of the season be enough to actually get a workable storm for some folks.

Screams inland.

I need my snow fix. Let's go with 6" to 10" cold powder that starts just before sunrise Christmas and ends right at sun down with a nice sunset.
