09-10 analogy Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I like living in a city — although Tenleytown is not exactly an urban environment— so my pissandmoan meter is keyed to other big cities. Westminster gets 20” and I get 2” doesn’t bother me in the least. Hell, in Feb 06 when I got 12” and Columbia MD — which is as I-95 corridor as it gets— got 20”, more power to ‘em. But let Philly proper gets 10” and I get 2”— which seems a reasonably possible scenario with this one — and that sticks in my craw. Yeah, NYC gets more snow than DC, but when CP gets 20” in Jan 2011 and I get 6” of slop .... ugh. And I guarantee the UHI effect is greater at Columbus Circle than Tenley Circle. Totally irrational, but there it is. That’s why December 2000 will always have a special exhibit in my personal Hall of Infamy, SJECS (Screwjob ECS) room. We all have our idiosyncrasies with regard to a hobby that some people probably consider a bit ... whimsical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Booked a hotel for Emmitsburg, that’s just south of Gettysburg but still in Maryland. Dog friendly, so hoping for snow walks. hopefully can hit 6-10 up there without stressing over mix. Fingers crossed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until this gets locked in as long as the solution falls within my range I don't get too worked up. Now if a total rainer rears its head today I'll probably be disappointed and if all models settle on a bomb then i'll raise my expectations. For now my low is 3" with lots of sleet/rain my high is 8" mostly snow. ETA: yes I slumped my shoulders when I read the Euro pbp...I don't care how objective or reasonable you are if you love snow that was a burning hemmeroid run. Sticking to this plus the call of low of 3" high of 8" looking decent at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll just bow out now and let y'all enjoy the snow. Sorry to have made things crappy for everyone. Looks like things are doing ok for those hoping for lots of snow.

Somewhere on the east side of the Susquehanna river say? Lancaster, Ephrata, Marietta, those areas look prime to miss the walking the line issues down along the fall line? 1 hour ago, Fozz said: I think @MillvilleWx would have the best answer on that, especially since his mesoscale analysis is always top notch. Hey NBZ. Just woke up a little bit ago and haven't looked too closely at things yet at 12z, but I have been barking at the US15 to I-81 corridor for a while on the max potential for the storm. I love the area from Front Royal to Hagerstown to Emittsburg and connect the triangle. I think, for the sub-forum, that's the best area for heavy snowfall. I've been thinking 12-18" for that corridor for a while. Pending the mesoscale aspects and whether the tongue of 7H frontogen can wrap back into the area prior to pull away, there's an outside shot at 2' along the MD line. If you wanted to trek outside the sub-forum, the best place imo is up near HBG over the northern hills of York Co. That's got elevation and likely nestled into the heart of the 7H frontgenic forcing with a small shot at some TROWAL development (Although I haven't seen anything yet today, so it's possible the TROWAL doesn't fully materialize). Good luck with chasing and stay safe! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanTheMan Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Not really sure what to expect Wednesday, sitting at 319 feet in Centreville (Thanks again to whoever posted that elevation map yesterday!).
