Its funny how we on this board rightfullyly point out that the exact R/S line and precip type isn't worth being scrutinized this far out, yet I see tweets from prominent meteorologists doing just that. Wouldn't it be more helpful to tweet "GFS still shows possibly major storm for our area next Friday" rather than "GFS great for mountains, mixing for I-95"? Considering that any mixing or things like that is only a possibility this far out.

Serious question..

 

If you had a gun to my head right now and was forced to pick a location I'd pick somewhere in N VA high elevations of C MD...

 

I would literally rtoad trip if a 30" type storm is on the table 2 days out.

 

Would any of you guys in the NW suburbs of DC be willing to host me for 1-2 nights so I can storm chase? 

Not sure why you keep saying only C MD is gonna get hit, but ok

I literally just wet my pants. If these runs keep coming in like this I'm going to have to wear adult diapers to sleep.

I'm worried I'm not gonna sleep. I have a feeling I might look like a crack head at work this week. I'll be all strung out on weenie map porn lol.

Well...Im just saying as we get closer, I would storm chase the most likely location for a 30+" event...

 

It's hard to determine exactly where such amounts will show up especially since they depend on mesoscale features whose locations can't really be predicted in advance. If I had to put a gun to my head, I'd recommend the Blue Ridge mountains between Frederick and Hagerstown, or northern Carroll county. I think climo generally favors those spots, and that includes big storms.

The liquor store is going to be a zoo this week. Get there early.

I haven't been drinking at all lately. But a historic storm requires a top shelf bottle of bourbon. If I start making off the rails posts at night later this week then you know I've already been to the store and half a bottle deep
