Maybe you had more ice to encapsulate it or the bands Tuesday and wed difference? I have selective 4-5" in shaded areas. 3-4" base with a couple grass spots . I did get about 4” more. It helps that I’m on the north slope of the ridge. Im also 400 feet higher up then Westminster. I know that I am always 3-4 degrees colder then the Westminster Airport which is only 7 miles away. That’s kinda crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the point of all of that calcus, physics and book learning when they could have just asked you? I'm pretty much calling for 2-4" with marginal surface temps like most other mets here? But apparently that makes me a know it all giving everyone the finger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why anyone would think that everyone would like a thump to freezing rain. I understand that some might like that, but I f’ing hate the flip to freezing rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amorphous Iodine Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 3 minutes ago, Bob Chill said: At this late stage in my weenieism, only 6-12" of ice will scratch the itch. Kinda like a cat 5 up the bay with a left turn at point lookout. I'm no spring chicken and time is running out on apocalyptic epicness to hit b4 I'm gone. I'd be honored at this point for winter wx to take me out. Heck, I had to come to grips with the same thing in the colorado backcountry and avalanches. You can mitigate but not remove the risk. So you either accept that every descent could be your last or dont make the first turn. I always said "this could be your final run of your life. Is it worth it?". The answer was always resounding F YEA! Ice greed you greed we all greed for ice greed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I won’t clutter the other thread with this whining. But it’s actually factual. You guys have heard me do this song and dance before, but damn why is it so hard to get meaningful precip? We are sitting at a whopping 1.77 inches since Jan 1. I’ll never abandon the “give me precip, I’ll worry about temps later”. But ... I did see mention of a precip into cad event coming so that’ll cheer me up. Those are usually precip producers. Thank you for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your time. It's all MBY perspective. If I had an inch of snow for every time I rained or slopped while you shoveled and posted green envy pics, I could open a ski area in my backyard. If I lived where you lived I would feel the same as you do. If you lived in my hood you would feel the same as me. But since far more people here live in temp worryland, you'll hear my perspective repeated constantly for MBY reasons alone and nothing else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years I think It’s been a few years. There was a noticeable difference once you get north of that first of the 3 ridges that make up Parrs Ridge in northern Carroll. The one that runs right through Manchester. There was much less south of that ridge. Once you get north of Manchester that high valley where Ebb Valley School is and north had a lot more snow. Still my yard being on the north slope of Dug Ridge helps too. Still full coverage here.

But since far more people here live in temp worryland, you'll hear my perspective repeated constantly for MBY reasons alone and nothing else True to an extent, but my temps aren’t that much colder than yours. My take on it is this. If there’s precip falling this time of year, there’s a chance it could be frozen in some form. A chance. Maybe not but a chance. With no precip there’s no chance regardless of temps, pattern, winds, etc LOL. Truth be told, I wish the sun wouldn’t shine 1 minute from Dec 1 to Mar 1. Not one second.
