I literally have no idea how this even happens. The forecast (from pretty much every outlet I've seen) has been no big deal the entire time. Maybe, maybe there was messaging about flash flood risk early one, but that was pretty quickly changed to localized threat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious to see what the temp is when I'm up there tomorrow. Last week + rain dropped the temp on the small lake near me back into the mid- upper 70s.

Facebook. someone has a relative in the Delmarva who was forecast to get up to 4 inches or hears the Weather Channel say that some places may get up to 4 inches. They take it to mean that they to will get 4 inches and posts that as if it is expected. People then run with it without verifying. Same reason a forecast of 4 to 8 inches of snow with lollis to 10 inches turns into a mass believing they will be getting close to a foot then "we are supposed to get a foot".

I am terrible at measuring regular snow, and I will be very delinquent about measuring this daily fluff stuff. I am glad there is a legit coop site about 2 mins up the road. I will report obs such as "it is puking snow" and "it looks like about a foot." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can go to MD or Delaware and get that basically year-round. It’s been rare in recent times. I’m sure it happens from time to time but we are likely talking decades at this level. Some of the more rural ASOS records in the NNE stations go back to like the 80s/90s? Not *that* far in the grand scheme of things but enough to get a strong idea for baseline climate. Maybe something changes for the second half of the warm season... this has started like a winter that exceeds your average seasonal snowfall by a lot already, and it’s only halfway through the winter.
