eastern hoco getting robbed by western hoco. got about an inch and mod snow falling. death band setup a little too far west. its sticking to everything so at least its pretty out.

Yeah, after the initial burst here in Columbia, it just hasn't really been accumulating. We're stuck at maybe an inch.

Ehh, it is what is is -- actually, I feel more for the Baltimore city/county crew, they've gotten screwed on snow more than most this year. You're only a few miles to the west, but glad to see you cash in more in situations like this.

Baltimore City used to do o.k. even when DC failed in marginal events. I wonder if the UHI effect, due to more growth in the corridor, is playing a role, or if climate warming is pushing the fail zone farther north.

Woke up to find last night's expectations fully realized -- a downgrade to WWA and forecast of 1-3" this morning. Not even buying that. Currently 34/32, mixed snow/rain.

It’s an absolute joke they left the cities and low elevation areas a warning as long as they did.

Just hit 5”. 3rd verified warning of the season.  Need one more inch to pass 30. Gonna pay for this in years to come lol. 

Wow,  had no idea it was that high out there in psu land.

Snowing pretty good here in Middletown,  much better rates than the last storm.  Very pretty out there.

Yup. I’m west of the fall line at 325’ or so, which definitely has made a difference in these kinds of events in the past. I’ve mentioned this in discussions on here with H20, with 12/5/09 being one event that really sticks out as one that produced here but not so much in your neck of the woods.

Something is off here. It’s probably bad luck, but if there’s a way to fail or come up short, we find it, every time. And I’ve got almost 400 feet of elevation in a wooded area. Doesn’t matter.

I am very pleased with my yard but kinda disappointed for everyone else. Was pulling for a more amplified coastal so we had a region wide celebration. This seems pretty elevation dependent. 

We’re doing pretty well in Westminster itself outside the west side of town. But big globs of snow are falling off things of course in the time of lighter rates.

Measured 0.5” at 830. Measured 0.5” at 940. 

Kinda rare for us not to get band'd at the same time. Not piling up hot and heavy but def approaching 2" here. Might be more. Still slackin and chillin in bed. Might all melt before I decide to take on the day and start moving

Both March 2013 events probably qualify.
