Steve25 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I apologize if I came across as whining. I'm just trying to keep a realistic view. I'll zip it for the rest of the day and just see how things play out. Didn't intend to frustrate anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laytonsville is in a good spot for this storm. 2-4" is a pretty solid bet for the area. Gburg and northern MoCo will be 2-4" in general. Potential max of 3-5" up near Damascus/Mount Airy line along 27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Wizard Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 40/33 here in Annapolis. If i get an inch out of this I'll be ecstatic but I suspect I'll be on the wrong side of the gradient. I think my only hope down here is to get in on the IVT action. I see widespread 1-4 inches along and north and west of 95 with an isolated 5 inch total possible somewhere from, say, Germantown to Westminster. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 1019 AM EST Tue Jan 7 2020 .SYNOPSIS... Low pressure will pass south of the area this afternoon. High pressure will build over the region Wednesday and hold through the end of the week. Another area of low pressure will pass northeast of the area late in the weekend. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Made a few minor tweaks to tighten the snowfall gradient along the I-95 corridor, speed up the onset timing by an hour or two, as well as nudge totals upward over higher terrain and northern Maryland per upstream obs/latest guidance. Knocked a couple degrees off the hourly temps as well. Otherwise, forecast remains on track. Impressive burst of snow upstream over West Virginia with visibility to 1/4 mile or less, and already reports of accumulations of an inch in under 30 minutes. It`s not the duration or total amounts expected, but the intensity and timing (with the evening commute for the I-95 corridor) that are expected to have a high impact. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, no snow obs in grass. Here's a reason to still be positive. This is the mesoanalysis from SPC at 10am. Closed low in SW VA and NW NC with pressure falls in VA/NC and a convergence line south of Richmond. Here is the 14z HRRR at noon. Is there any world in which you can look at the current analysis and think that the low is going to be on the central WV/VA border? 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
