WWA's hoisted for all along the PA border counties . But nothing in Md east of Cumberland...as if anything frozen will stop dead in its tracks at the M/D line lol. Definitely a close call tonight with lows around freezing or just above many spots .

Your only hope is that clouds stay thick today and then thin out for a few hours this evening.

Yea....pretty unanimous on guidance many will see snow showers from the ull Monday.  Convective rates should get some  areas a coating to an inch . I'd be good with a moderate to heavy snow shower that coated the grass and car tops to start the season.  And I agree with PSU that qpf for the ull pass is probably underdone.  Could easily see someone n+w that gets the most intense convective bands getting an inch or more. 

Euro temps are colder than GFS for Monday. Has our area in the mid 30's at its warmest and throws out about  .15 liquid. Somehow double that output which isn't impossible and it could get fun for a while.

Martinsburg finished November 3.3 degrees below normal with 0.66" of precip.  There have only been 5 Novembers since 1926 with less precip than that.  Very wide range in snowfall for the winters that followed.  But only 1976 from this list was BN in temperature.

1981   0.63"  (46.1")

1931   0.62"   (1.4")

1960   0.41"  (83.4")

1976   0.37"  (20.4")

1998   0.31"  (34.7")
