So the high at BWI was supposed to be 52 and its already 58 out? Gotta love this winter. Reminds me of 97/98 (not the analog, but the end result). And you all thought last year was bad- I told you all it wasn't. THIS is what you call a bad winter around here. Maybe some of those thunderstorms can make it over the mountains. :rolleyes:

Sky looks rather dark to the NW of Westminster. Always cool to have that deceptive back light cell.

You might get lucky.

I was just out getting milk and to the NW it was very dark but you could see the snow bands in the valley off of the Catoctins. My guess is that I-70/ Rt. 40 was getting a decent flizzard. Had I had my camera in the car I would have taken a shot. Really neat to see!

I know there is someone on here that lives North of me in Frederick near Ft. Detrick. Don't know if he can confirm this or not.
