I guess since LWX has WWA-criteria snow in the forecast for tomorrow they'll be issuing advisories to the Bay soon. I guess...

Not anymore. Now they have less than an inch for most of Montgomery County and to the south/east. I'm not sure what caused them to scale it back. 

 

A WWA means there has to be 2-4" of snow, which the NWS doesn't think will happen.

Yeah, they just changed it. Let's hope it is just another in a long line of LWX busts.

Only real change is start times?

 

yeah mostly. not sure any 6 hr period has the rates of last run. 6-12z definitely doesnt.

 

low is a bit weaker/east.. ne md/de/s nj might catch some of it but sfc is mild either way unless you get into that vv ball which seems to stay just offshore based on the maps.

Not exciting as in nothing falling or rain?

potomac and ne gets .1"+ from 12-18z. de/se pa/s nj gets .25"+ in that panel. 18-0z sucks for everyone unless maybe you're on a boat just offshore.

 

not sure on precip type.. only have a few types of maps. i'd guess mix or rain or non accum snow just about everywhere.

seems like 1-3" inside both beltways looks good and 2-4" w/elevation outside and a couple lolis of 6" in usual favored locations w/highest elevation and/or luck

 

we're going to need a great band to get anywhere near 3 inside the beltway

that's why they made range snow forecasting  ;)

 

1" is my current go big goal imby. outside chance of higher but i couldn't go there yet so i'd probably go with like .25-1.5" inside the beltway. ;)
