SOMDweather Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I say we lock up the latest Euro run and throw away the keys? Great for all of SO MD and lower E Shore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 I had a burst of heavy wet snow with big flakes. Too warm to accumulate on anything, but I took my son out in it and he liked running around. It looks like its ending now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I say we lock up the latest Euro run and throw away the keys? Great for all of SO MD and lower E Shore. And upper eastern shore Hope this works out...I know southern areas and esp the lower shore has been left out of the fun a lot in recent winters.

baldereagle Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The 273+- pity flakes I saw a short while ago qualify as a burst this winter I guess..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowershoresadness Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 well looks like we may have a shot at snow snow next week. I think it's way way way too soon to know any given particulars at this time. I want snow as bad as anyone but weather models are terrible at predicting the future in the time frame. snow maps are fun to look at and give you this giddy feeling but at the end of the day next week doesn't exist yet lol. what are your guys current thoughts?

PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 I like when the "S" word ("suppression", not "snow") is tossed around in the main thread. That usually has the north/west people going while we're Technically we're also getting screwed right now too, but I like where we sit as of now.

Lowershoresadness Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Looking pretty good. I like where we sit but lots of time to get screwed. I think you guys on the other side of the bay are in a much better position than me. I fear a change over to just plain rain for me. An on shore flow for me is the kiss of death for any snow. Ocean air sucks lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexD Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 You always say that Debbie.... My hope is for snow to mix and obviously rain is always possible over here but we are dealing with a strength and depth of cold dense Arctic air we don't often see....I mean I'm seeing comparisons to the outbreak of February 1996 being made by more than one major media outlet in the area. I remain hopeful and confident that this is out best shot at significant snow so far this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remain hopeful and confident that this is out best shot at significant snow so far this winter. I never knew that the February '96 storms had you guys in the bullseye. Both of those were just moderate events in the BWI area. This is from LWX's historic storms page: February 2-3 and February 16, 1996, storms: The Delmarva received 4 snowstorms in about 5 weeks from January 7 through February 16. The storm on February 2-3, dropped up to two feet of snow over Dorchester County. The entire Lower Eastern Shore was covered by another 1 to 2 feet of snow. On February 16, another storm struck dropping 5 to 8 inches over the Lower Eastern Shore and 8 to 12 inches on the Upper Eastern Shore. These storms combined to produce the snowiest season this century on the Delmarva! The Lower Shore (Wicomico, Worcester, and Somerset Counties) saw 28 to 35 inches of snow in those five weeks. Dorchester, Talbot, and Caroline Counties saw 45 to 59 inches of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexD Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I actually didn't know that either....I was just referencing the cold air severity..... But God wouldn't it be awesome to have a repeat performance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceFrederickWx Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Charles, Calvert and St. Mary's have high wind warnings and wind chill advisories, but I'm surprised winter weather advisories haven't been posted yet, especially since the actual forecasts are calling for 1-1.5 inches later today and tonight. I don't think I've ever had all three advisories at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowershoresadness Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 what worries me most about tue and wed is that there is no high to our north locking in the cold air. I know it's going to be cold but that damn east wind off the ocean seems to hate Salisbury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
