Good along the I-70 corridor and north... not so much from MD 200 or MD 32 and south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I'm watching Albert Lea Minnesota they are slated to get 2-4" if they get that or more then I think we can get an inch at leastWhat ratios are they looking at up there? 75:1 type stuff?

osfan24 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Ha, if the NAM was right, that would be approaching warning criteria for Baltimore considering ratios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically it's not a clipper but who really cares at this point. I'll take my half inch of crunchy dust that evaporates instead of melts and be happy.

BWI area seems best in line to cash in on that idea. but it all could still shift south, north or lose steam entirely so everyone gets a dusting. just not much to work with and from what I am reading might be the only meal we will eat for days after..so enjoy and fill up if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 P&C here is 1-3” tonight and 2-4” tomorrow. Hopefully we do well tonight as that would probably mean further east back at home/Balt/DC/etc would score well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
