Looks like Chuck posted the image above. No way I'd buy that. It would be a colossal forecasting bust from Baltimore to Philly if it was somehow right.
-
Latest RAP is loltastic...runs warning criteria snow right up to Trenton, NJ. DC gets closed to a foot of snow. No way that happens.
-
Definitely fighting some dry air here in Baltimore County...radar would make you think it's coming down at a good clip but it's just very light off and on powdered sugar. Seems like folks in Arlington and southern Fairfax County at the lower elevations in DC are encountering the same thing. Really hope we can moisten the column sooner rather than later.

00z IAD RAOB should be interesting. I'm thinking there a small pocket or two of dry air lingering.
-
Quick dusting on everything. It's like powdered sugar.

In the last 2 frames of the 0.5° base reflectivity, you can see a band setting up over the beltway in Montgomery/PG county.

SN- at my home in Reisterstown. Very small flakes.
-
Regional radar over West Virginia is showing the precip filling in quickly.
-
Based off DOT cams, it's a steady snow west of I-270.
-
Thicker low deck of clouds moving in now in Reisterstown. Looks almost like a proper winter day.

3:00 pm AFD from LWX:

Looks like your first legit warning criteria event since you moved to Maryland.

JYO reporting SN-

Good to see stuff is making it to the ground quickly...even with the lighter returns. 12z RAOB from IAD only had a thin area of really dry air just below 850 mb so it shouldn't take too long to get rid of that.
-
For the northern folks, the LWX 1.5° base reflectivity scan seems to show some echoes increasing to your west from Cascade MD through Taneytown...looks like the northern jackpot zone is beginning to take shape.
-
Based off DOT cams, it appears as though some steady but very light snow has started in Glen Echo, Cabin John and Potomac.
-
Remember to report your first flakes using mPING app on your smart phone. The data help radar meteorologists and operational staff understand where precipitation is making it to the ground!

Thicker mid level cloud deck moving in up here in Reisterstown. 32/19

Thicker cloud deck about to move in....bye sun!

Best Mid-Atlantic winter storm of the last 40 years
Eskimo Joe replied to PrinceFrederickWx's topic in Mid Atlantic
So many great stories ITT...absolutely love it. Helps us get through these dark times. -
Link to the tamdar soundings? Need to update my spreadsheet.

Wonder if southern PG and Fairfax get an advisory later this evening.
-
Wonder if US 50 is going to be the cutoff. Glad our southern friends are getting some love. They miss out so many times.

He's an idiot.
