mdsnowlover Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Well my main job is in leesburg so I had to come here anyways. Why do we even look at models anyways? lol I usually only come looking close to the event, saves a lot or aggravation, you maybe different you have to plan for certain events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 1.15 rain, heavy sleet and a few flakes now! 32.5* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needbiggerboat Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Everyone needs to have patients. Once that first inch of warmed ground cools down, the second cold inch and under will shoot off enough coldness to change the falling unfrozen rain to something else. Now I can't promise what it will be, but you can expect some type of sleet or snow after the cold ground underneath teh warm ground works it's magic.

baltimoreguy Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Hoping someone can help me with an office-type question, since people here look to me for weather advice. We're all in the office now (in Lutherville) and it's still just rain, though I know it will switch to frozen at some point. When is it supposed to end? I'm thinking about suggesting we just stay open all day, because the snow/rain/sleet will be over by afternoon commute time - but I know there will be pressure from some people to shut down as soon as it starts snowing.
