Right now I’m just steamed some town 8 miles northeast of me reported 5 and I only have 4.5! I think I’m gonna stew over that all day!!!! seriously though I don’t dislike these minor events. Even up here they make up the majority of my snowfalls. But it’s not what I like to track. Like @Bob Chill said, the payoff on tracking some meso scale 50 mile wide band of snow from long range is awful. You can’t pin these small scale local events down at any range. It was pure luck it ended up over me. What wasn’t pure luck was that I got 4-5” instead of 1-3” because of my elevation. I can max out these little things. But Imo it’s a waste of time to track them from distance. I start paying attention when they get inside 24 hours. Big synoptic events I’ll track at range. Both because you have a slightly better chance of pinning them down at range and the payoff is bigger. But even up here I know on average I only get a couple 8”+ storms a year. I don’t get mad when they don’t happen. I’m not complaining over small snows. Just not interested in spending hours a day tracking them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormfly Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I know not everyone wins with these but this is just about right! Not enough to be an annoyance with travel and it just looks stunning out! Yesterday's mid 50s working the (tree) line and still having doubts after dinner when it was in the upper 40s! It's like a winter wonderland up here. 2", still snowing lightly. 29/27 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T. August Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Wow….. honestly thought around 2” was a lock, and no guidance showed less than that and temps weren’t as bad as I thought. .6” in Havre de Grace. Grand total of 8”. This winter can screw right off. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Some of the high res guidance develops a snow squall as the NS shortwave passes through later tonight. Looks like psu land maybe down towards Baltimore could see a burst of snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltosquid Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Snow's picked up a bit in Canton. Still no accumulation on pavement/sidewalks, just cars and grassy surfaces. But I get to do a couple errands in the snow at least, so that's a nice treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 An inch here and still dust falling. It must be getting close to spring because my backyard tree was covered with red berries yesterday, but a gang of robins picked it clean this morning.

This snow puts mby season total to around 16.5" - 17". Classic La Nina...Nicole and dime your way to climo. Not the greatest winter, but this definitely isn't a dumpster fire. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevWarReenactor Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Coming down now. But it’s white rain. I do see why the models printed out the 2-4 inches; it’s what it would have been say 4 degrees colder. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that area of strong lift had been over your area, temps would have fallen to freezing and snow would have accumulated. Maybe not the 4-5" that the Parrs folks got, but 2-3" would have been doable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Damn. Some spots in PA pushing 8”! Meso models definitely keyed in on a fairly narrow but potent jackpot zone, but it was farther NW in reality than any of the guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
