    Wow, this might have been the snowiest GFS run of them all right at game time. Both that and the 3k NAM have 3' at IPT (via Kuchera). Huge difference in the York/LNS realm though. That's going to be something to watch today which model wins with the thermals. Heck the 3k NAM got sleet all the way to KAOO on a huge surge of >0ºC 850mb temps, that's probably not going to happen. York and Lancaster probably aren't quite going to get to 20+ either as there should be some mixing. Given already solid establishment of cold air at 925mb and below via the Canadian high, I still feel most mixing is going to be in the form of sleet north of the mason-dixon. 

    @Eskimo Joe mentioned that temps in Baltimore County are lower than forecast, so that's gotta be a good sign for those of us closer to the Mason/Dixon since Baltimore is generally "upstream" of the expected warm air.

     

    Wonder if that temp delta is true for Port Deposit and Wilmington, too.

    Years ago (as in at least 20-25) a recently retired met from MU made a call for like 0"-24" for Lanco. People thought he was a coward for putting out a range that incredulous...it ended up being almost spot on. Our proximity to the ocean and not having a chain of mountains surrounding us can break hearts all too often. That same proximity to the big pond can pay huge dividends though, too. 

     

    late 90's, I believe. Went to bed sure school would be closed. Woke up to brown grass. Still haven't gotten over my distrust of snow forecasts.

    Lancaster show 2 inches to the south and almost 30 at the NW tip. Some gradient on the nam 3k....geez. 30 mile shift and it’s boom or bust for my county if this verified.  

    Isn't that true (in some form: n/s, e/w) for almost all major Lancaster area snowfalls?

     

    Mixing and dryslots (or fear of), and large gradients are pretty much the norm.
