Baltimorewx Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Obviously Im not invested because it wont happen in my area, nor is it a big deal for any area outside of the mountains but for sake of fun (or argument) looks like 12z GFS backing off some on changeover to snow chances outside of the high terrain. Still a slight chance I guess for fellas like losetoa6 but meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I was a little skeptical of the amount of rain the mesoscale models were putting down, but it looks like they are right. Already about a half inch and moderate to heavy rain currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to take the dog to the vet in Vienna around lunch and the drive back on 66/Beltway was dicey between construction on 66, traffic, and pouring rain.

coolio Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 The reason it's raining today is because March was underperforming by .48 Mother nature got the memo this am. Can't be slacking On a discobs note, I picked up .42 since noon or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks ! When you are driving around look at your lawns and and woods and see the new establishment of evasive weeds and rough house blue grass, taking over golf courses and manicured lawns. Very interesting. Onion grass also making a comeback as top soils erode and the moisture and feedback cycle supports these new weeds and grasses. I def noticed bunch of garbage around recently.

high risk Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 One potential bit of sneakiness for tomorrow: while most guidance seems to have backed off on the chances of the early morning precip ending as a period of wet snow (although it still seems like a few mangled flakes are possible north and northwest of DC), they are more bullish on the idea of some showers in the afternoon as the upper trough axis swings through, especially on the west side of DC. If you squint at the P-type maps, you can see a little blue in the heavier cores, and the forecast soundings have very low freezing levels and a little bit of instability. I would not be surprised to see some heavier graupel (or even briefly wet snow) showers around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 0.82" so far. Looks like the first round should be ending shortly. Hopefully the next batch later tonight wont be as heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just a chance of some wet snow and probably the last of the season. If you are not interested then move on . I did cancel it and it was a hell of a good call. Most of this forum hasn’t seen any winter precip or any kind of extended winter cold since that date. I still post cuz it’s weather and it’s discussion. Maybe you can admit my call was actually a good one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we could have lucked into something with our March history but it seemed fairly clear that the first couple weeks of March would feature above normal temps and below normal precip. Not good for snow. And after mid March snow chances decrease dramatically so that’s why I made the call, but of course I got criticized for it in here and still do but whatevs. People can live in fairytale land if they want to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
