I wish I could get excited and say we have a shot for a couple more inches.  Then i look at radar and go ehhhhhhhhh.  I'm a jaded man right now.  This storm was like speed dating with all the model snow maps.  And I bought them lots of drinks and it seemed like I was going home with lots of digits.  

And then at closing time ALL of them went with all the dudes from the Jersey Shore.

there needs to be a crying/laughing emoji. Like not tears from laughing, but real tears while laughing.

Perhaps this is in the small print: Realized snow = (ECMWF-3)*0.667 > 0

Lol. This is seriously getting on my nerves. I'm not getting another 5" in Germantown. I'm at 2".

 

I have no idea how the models can be so bad. This model told me 18 hours from the event that I'd be getting 11" of snow. Throughout the event, it has continued to say "Oh don't worry, you're still gonna get 8 more. 6 more. 5 more."

 

That it can be so wrong, even NOW, mid event, after all that's happened so far... it just blows my mind.

 

Give me 2". Let me beat my December snow. Let me meet my minimum threshold for Capital Weather Gang's "bust" range (which I still haven't met yet, I'm only at 2" and they said it would be a bust at 4").

2-4 inches would be hugely acceptable for my hood. Hoping for mappy and high stakes and psu to max with some of that making it down here.

I want to get 5 more.  We aren't along the M/D border, but we can do this.  Just need a band to set up for a couple of hours and it will pile up fast with good ratios.  Of course, as soon as the sun comes out tomorrow, it would deflate, but so what?!?

I am not sure how far your location is from Clarksburg heights.  We have flipped to moderate accumulating snow here. I hope folks in Germantown joins the party soon.

As the coastal finally strengthens it's grip and torques around, better snow rates should nudge south of I-70 in Maryland this afternoon. I know it's excruciating for a lot of folks, but patience is the only thing I can recommend.

Hopefully it finally starts ripping here as a result. I hate this effing storm.

DT has an Aleet on Facebook, declaring the wrap around has commenced and is going all the way down to Hampton Roads, looks like he is using the old intelicast weenie 5000 radar to illustrate...

Well ok!  Now we are talking!!  Because he’s been dead nuts accurate so far!!  Congrats Phoebus!!
