LOL Tony Pann. 2-6 is the shad of blue that runs just west of DC and through Baltimore. I think the next shade is 1-2 and the lightest shade is a dusting.

Baltimore County splits at the Hereford Zone line, so a little north of the actually fall line but close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great falls is a result of the falls, but it used to be a bit east of that It’s also the demarcation line from fresh water to sea water (at least partial) Coastal plain has tidal waters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesternFringe Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 55 minutes ago, PhineasC said: That may be true, but unless you are measuring every six hours and melting the snow to get liquid equivalent, you have no idea what ratios you usually get. That said, if you are that informed about local climo, then you don't even need a snow map. I don't look at snow maps for my place at 1600' in Northern NH. I have enough experience with snow growing up in New England and upstate NY to know the difference between 15:1 and 10:1 and 5:1 snow when I get it without melting it down. I get both above and below 10:1 here, but this storm's thermals from 850s to 925s to 2m here at 1540' appear to be the kind of setup where I tend to get 12:1 or more. We shall see.
