Yeah a bit disappointed but not too surprised...may have 1.5" or so...warning criteria once again won't be met this time, but this is a nina after all. I can't remember the last time I saw good rates here for an extended period of time. Cut off is indeed brutal...but at least we got something nice to look at!

Where in Baltimore are you? I am in Dundalk and have to be at about 4" now

Where in the city are you? I'm in Canton not too far from the waterfront and have 3.5" or so and it's stacking up quicker now.

Been snowing heavy here for the past 2 hours I'd say and hasn't really stopped. I am in the SE part of the City/County though.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC
1039 AM EST Mon Jan 3 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will continue to track northeastward along a cold 
front this afternoon. High pressure returns for Tuesday before 
a weak cold front crosses the area on Wednesday. Another low 
pressure system is slated to cross the region late in the week. 
Drier weather returns over the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
A surface low pressure system currently over the Carolinas will
track northeastward. The heaviest of snowfall is between Orange
County in Virginia to Anne Arundel County in Maryland and about
20 miles on both sides of this line. Snow amounts have reached
the 10-inch mark in parts of Stafford, VA within the past 
couple minutes. This tops the list so far with this winter storm
event. The back edge of the snowfall is from northwest 
Albemarle County in Virginia to central Loudoun County in 
Virginia to northern Harford County in Maryland. Temperatures 
are in the lower to middle 30s across the region. Some low 40s 
closer to the metro areas and southern MD.

We have increased snow amounts for central and eastern Virginia,
and for parts of Maryland near and southeast of Washington D.C.
In contrast, we have decreased snow amounts along the Mason-
Dixon region and parts of eastern West Virginia since most of
these locations have received very little to zero snowfall.

Snow rates will be 1 to as much as 3 inches per hour where it is
snowing heavily at this time and areas due east of there through
mid afternoon.

Snow will taper off then end from SW to NE through the 
afternoon hours as the low departs the area. Do expect the 
entire system to be offshore by early this evening. Cold air 
will remain in place overnight lows dropping down into the teens
to low 20s for most.
