  1. Sure are, good catch. Fits with the radar filling in over MD
  2. I measured 3.4” at top of the hour. Decent quality flakes right now
  3. Better ratios than I thought. 3.4” now for me at the second snowboard cleaning. Biggest event of the winter
  4. GRAF is the IBM model. It was apparently a candidate for the GFS update a couple years ago but lost out to FV3. Yeah, 6-12” was their storm total for MoCo, HoCo, Bmore and points north. Still seems that the low end of that range could verify if we believe the guidance for the next 36-48 hours.
  5. Total wine had a $3 wine stand so of course I partook. Drinking it now and...yeah, it was priced right.
  6. I’d wager this has been like 6-8:1 ratios outside of brief interludes.
  7. Temp down to 27, coldest of the day. If we get some FZDZ, will certainly make things slick. Still teeny snowflakes for now.
  8. 3” of sand, I mean snow, has finally accumulated after 10 hours.
  9. I show up as “2 W Elkridge”, but yes Columbia. Another spotter is nearby with the same handle.
  10. Visibility down to 0.5”mi or so, so legit mod snow. Keep this up for a few more hours and 4-5” will be easy. Took a drive to get my daughter and side roads all covered. Even main roads a little slushy.
  11. 2.5”. 0.6” last hour so definitely picked up. First time the visibility has noticeable decreased. Wind picking up a little too.
  12. 1.9”, 0.2” the last hour. But flakes and rates increased in the last 20mins or so, so hopefully will pile up faster.
  13. Yeah, they just became non-microscopic. When the bigger flakes have happened today, it’s a respectable 0.5”/hr or so.
  14. Yummy, I might bail on this storm for next weekend. GGEM is very similar
  15. Ugh that better band is over me and still just teeny flakes
  16. It’s more of an inverted trough feature. The true CCB tomorrow doesn’t do much for us. Maybe another inch or two. IVTs can put down some snow but they are notoriously hard to predict far in advance.
