Should have added memories of 50+ years are tough, but I remember my first year at Penn State (70-71) I was disappointed in the amount of snow until the late season snowstorm, no memories of 71-72, 72-73 being little snow but several ice storms and 73-74 being a decent snow year.

This is interesting. I went to Penn State before the graph starts (from 70 to 74) and can remember three major snowstorms, spring of 71, Thanksgiving 71 ( which was a cold rain in central NJ) , and a huge storm in Feb 74, (again not major in central Jersey as I was home for the weekend but to get back to school I had to drive south (Penn Turnpike to Harrisburg rather then I 80).

After flickering off and on a couple of times earlier, power now out since 6:47

What to me is amazing is that besides the last three entrants on the table, there are only six entrants left who still have positive departures at all four sites. The closest WXDUDE64 has an overall positive departure of 24.4

And I moved from N Virginia in Feb 2021 to what I thought would be a slightly snowier climate. I should have known in that the day of the walk thru in Jan 2021 ( a Sunday morning) the plows were out in my old neighborhood, and the folks up in Lutherville wondered why I was wondering if the walk through was still on.

Thanks to you and Mappy. The other day Mays Chapel did reflect the north rather then the south. Much easier when we lived down by Mclean and Wolf Trap and were part of Ffx County.

Thanks!

I have a question. How do I find the dividing line between LWX's Southern Baltimore and Northern Baltimore? My googling did not come up with anything. I feel that in Lutherville-Timonium I am right on the dividing line

Light rain started with freezing on the mail box.

Just started wet snow in Lutherville.

CBS Sportsline had a non-positive article about Franking this morning. One key point was the drop in recruiting since 2022. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/whats-next-for-penn-state-after-orange-bowl-loss-it-starts-with-james-franklin-whos-1-18-vs-top-5-teams/

Kind of agree with what is being said in that Franklin seems to be a guaranteed 10 wins but not the big one. Its been 50 years since I graduated from there, and losing due to a turn over and then a score has to be one of the cruelist defeats. Just thought OT was guaranteed and then it is a crap shoot.

As some one who moved to Lutherville in early 2021 (settlement in Feb, moving vans a month later in March) from the Wolf Trap area and expected slightly more snow, this is depressing. In fact, I think the 1/3/2022 storm was a bit less here as I remember driving on the Balt beltway the next day and seeing a good bit more snow in Catonsville. Growing up in Central NJ, I will admit I was spoiled young by big snowstorms like the three in the 60-61 winter, the first of which started on a Saturday in early-mid December and closed schools for the entire week.

Flurries in Lutherville

Just saw a few lonely snowflakes in Lutherville-Timonium

A lot of damage in the Roland Park area of Baltimore. Daughter reported both Cold Spring and Kitterey blocked by trees down and part of Roland Ave flooded. Loss of power in many places.

Currently at Wintergreen to golf a few days. The mountain course is in as bad a shape as I have ever seen it ( been coming here every few years for 30+ years). Fairways and greens have numerous brown spots. Tees were destroyed by something over the winter. As you said, they had no rain for a month and then a few sprinkles last week. And now the mountain is fogged in.

That seems awlfully close. Is Chestnut Ridge up a few miles on Falls Road or Greenspring from Greenspring Station?

Jebman - Not sure of the weather yesterday in Austin, but am visiting Dallas. Torrential rains for about 12 hours yesterday. Love Field in dallas reported 4.22 inches of rain. Radar estimates show that was pretty common across the City.

Here is an article from the Baltimore Sun on how long to replace the bridge: Two to 10+ years. https://www.baltimoresun.com/2024/03/27/how-long-to-rebuild-key-bridge/?lctg=5542341FC47274152512454414&utm_email=5542341FC47274152512454414&utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_term=https%3a%2f%2fwww.baltimoresun.com%2f2024%2f03%2f27%2fhow-long-to-rebuild-key-bridge%2f&utm_campaign=Breaking-News-Alerts&utm_content=alert

Have read time estimates of anything from a year (I do not believe) to at least four. It takes so long for anything to be built these days that to me the 4 years sound more believable. I wonder if they will have to do any enviroment studies and even enviroment lawsuits which slow down everything even more. Look how long it takes to build pipe lines or the Purple Line.

Was at Fort McHenry for the first time yesterday. Wife wanted to see the cherry blossoms. (We moved to Lutherville from Tysons/Vienna three years ago). As we walked around, my wife asked what bridge was in the distance. I said the Key Bridge. We used to go on it to go to NJ when the old Harbor Tunnel (I-895) was backed -up like on Thanksgiving ( before the I-95 tunnel opened) but its been years since we were on it. I thought it was an Onion headline when I first saw the headline. The collapsing video is unbelievaable.

Same thing and heavy rain for a brief time in Lutherville-Timonium.

As I walked around my neighborhood earlier today, I was shocked to see that some of the north facing roofs still had snow on them.

Interesting. I belong to Woodholme and find it very hilly whereas when I golfed at Suburban I have thought of it as flat.
