I don't know if you work there or what (I'm not into the whole forum clique that knows everyone in-person) so maybe your response was some kind of inside joke?

CAPE Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 9 minutes ago, Mdecoy said: I actually think lack of precip here and not temperatures will be what keeps totals lower. Looks to shut off out to the west long before temps are an issue. Guidance generally all had less precip for eastern areas during the cold part of the event. Another reason I was not at all enthused about this. And ofc the model snowfall maps were completely awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm perfectly fine with three 4-6 inch events during winter. Of course, a 12-inch storm/blizzard is icing on the cake. This winter has been okay when not bogged down in model forecasting. Not the best, but okay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Ripping fatties here in severna park. Looks like 4+ inches on the ground. Surprised it turned back to all snow. Hearing a ping or 2 as I type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErinInTheSky Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 This has been a great winter for me. Prior to this I never experienced a WSW level snow. This winter I got two of them and beat climo! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 10 inch plus storm with no mixing immediately got me to B-. The couple of other little events, arctic air, and this get me to B maybe even a B+ the more I think about it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowCane Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Snow is finally mixing with sleet in Gaithersburg. It's been a fun event, glad I walked around while it was ripping fat flakes.
