  1. If we get the thermal boundary a bit to our south and this active pattern that seems imminent, definitely can imagine snow threats popping up at and inside of D5 range.
  2. GGEM and RGEM have an inch of snow for folks above the fall line Friday am
  3. 1/31-2/2: 6.2" Total: 10.3" Have moved well beyond "epic fail" winter, so that's always nice.
  4. I’ve had hours and hours of non accumulating snow in the air. After like 54 hours of extra light accumulating snow.
  5. Certainly some older spotter reports mixed in. Most of Carroll county under 6” is surprising to me. I’d guess that the whole area from northern MoCo east to me, up around Baltimore, and then up into harford county is probably over 6”.
  6. Subsidence from that band hitting @CAPE and @JakkelWx is eating into the band trying to rotate into HoCo and Bmore city.
  7. They had 2.5" as of midnight. They only added 0.7" today?? When several nearby spotters reported 2-3" new??
  8. Did nobody mention the 6z para has the weekend storm? More of a OH Valley runner, so thump to drizzle and dry slot.
  9. 6.2" total. Temp up to 35F, but looks like snow bands trying to move back over me.
  10. Didn't you guys get a good blast yesterday evening around 4pm with that band that came out of Harford/Cecil?
  11. @DCTeacherman...I have been looking at SPC mesoanalyis to see what might have caused this snow band. Best I can see, the 700mb low seemed to extend south and/or reform a bit over the southern tip of the Delmarva. Lift is usually maximized on the N/NW fringe of the 700mb low, which yesterday was over northern NJ/NYC/NE PA. Then there was also wind and moisture convergence around 850mb. Here's 700mb: I can't post the -2hr (2 hours ago) map it seems..., but here's the link to the 850mb plot and just click the -4 or -2 button at the top right (time sensitive obviously): https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/new/viewsector.php?sector=17#
  12. I haven't looked beyond today much yet, but seems like we're probably going to be busy for a couple weeks at least. Much of our snow often comes in bunches and relatively short periods, so it wouldn't be crazy.
  13. We've definitely had a little bad luck. Still have very slowly tacked up 6"+. I called 8-12" for us on Saturday and 6" was my bar for acceptable. So we got there, even if it was a struggle. What's for sure is that my Jebwalk timing has been terrible. Each time it's started snowing well and I've gotten outside for a walk, it's tapered off quickly lol.
  14. Need to look at some maps in more detail. Surely something like this has been off and on the guidance for days so it’s not a total surprise.
  15. DC bullseye today. I’m in a bit of a lull and can see a brighter part of the sky in the east. Waiting for the stuff over Baltimore county to rotate through. Winter wonderland outside!
  16. Apparently I can’t add any more reactions today but wanted to say that’s gorgeous! I’d buy a print of that!
