  1. Self quarantined for 2 weeks and a negative COVID test allowed us to see the in laws in Mt. Joy. We were rewarded with a dusting of snow last night.
  2. How nice of WPC to use Christmas colors. This makes the 50 and rain worth it.
  3. N. Georgia and E. Tennessee get.more snow than DC on the HRRR. This is absolutely believable and shows how bad our snow climo is.
  4. Meso's trying to hit the back end snow more HRRR has some little max near St. Mary's and Calvert counties, unless I'm missing something.
  5. You need to move somewhere else. You know the climo of this area and yet you still go berserk every year that isn't a 2009 - 2010.
  6. Isn't there a correlation of Mongolian highs and cold/wet conditions on the eastern CONUS?
  7. Over/under on a surprise watch box? I'm going 40%.
  8. I'm always conservative with mixed bag events and any snow map beyond D2.
  9. 18z GFS/GEFS showing some Christmas love for all of CTPs CWA. Solid advisory level event.
  10. 1" - 3" for everyone on Christmas Eve / early Christmas morning is money.
  11. This interface is very slow and seems to rely on third party data for the underlying base map. Given the antecedent challenges with NWS IT infrastructure their move to this product was, IMO, short sighted. I prefer the old radar because it was faster to load, easier to interpret, and still worked when you had limited data connection. I encourage anyone with a strong opinion, positive or negative, to email: [email protected]
  12. 19 for a low in Reisterstown. Coldest in 4 years.
  13. Yea I made the point to shovel out completely yesterday because I saw the MOS guidance was screaming OVC all day today and knew it whatever I didn't clear off wasn't melting today. My 4 year old single stage snow blower that's only been used once refuses to work now after starting up flawlessly in October, so I can only infer it sacrificed itself to the snow gods.
  14. 29/24 in Reisterstown with a steady NW wind of around 5 mph and dense overcast. I'm not going to hit freezing today and it's great.
  15. That was a good early season snow boom. 12z RAOB from IAD show the mid levels were about 2 or 3 degrees colder than even the meso guidance. Everyone wet bulbed right down towards freezing and held there and it was a clusterf*ck on the roads. We had like a 15 car accident on I-270 in Hyattstown that jacked everything up.
  16. On Sterling's radar it appears that we have a sustained streamer coming over the mountains and down in the NW suburbs of DC. Looking at the terminal radars (BWI, ADW, DCA), the precip might event be making it to the ground towards the bay.
  17. Leesburg (KJYO) is down to 7SM so they might be having TV Snow.
  18. M0.1" new snowfall on the snow board in Reisterstown. 26/23 With snow on snow that reinforces the snow we've now achieved Tier II of the Eskimo Joe Snowfall Pyramid of Success™.
  19. Temp falling like a rock. Was 32° at 4:00 pm. Now 26°.
