Whenever I see your location, it makes me think more Greensboro VT rather than Greensboro MD. Only thing lacking is the snow! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 A heads up for the DC crew and anyone traveling on I70 today, but that truck convoy in Hagerstown is heading to the dc beltway and doing a couple of laps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t really distinguish them from normal traffic on the cams, but they sure are honking a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think it was $5.31 in Breezewood yesterday when we passed by. Amazing how we finally get through COVID and things are healing, and then Russia.

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 So yesterday I saw some crazy pickle flowers blooming...first ones of the season! (That's perhaps a bad subtle pun...daffodils --> daffy dills --> crazy pickles!) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it stays dry for the next month. The water table has just broken the surface in my seasonal wetland- just a couple random shallow puddles. Easier to larvicide if it doesn't get too expansive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol....noooo. That means 0 snow . Rooting for lots of qpf through April 10th imby . Dry isn't drought. Its relative. I don't want 4" of rain in March, and there are considerations other than snow. I had a great January here, so while I wont complain about some wet snow in the next couple weeks, it's not like something I live for. Rooting for big qpf going forward is rooting for rain, even in your yard. It's Spring dude. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 lol some of these Carroll county folks talk like they live in Maine. I lived there for 10 years plus and I remember one or 2 decent snow events in late March, and nothing significant comes to mind for April. Its a decent place for snow locally, but it ain't all that. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would I think I live in Maine ? You were talking like you get snow in your yard on the reg into the second week in April. The years I spent up there late March and early April were not at all memorable for winter weather. Ofc you might be the only one here who cares about a random wet snow shower at that point lol. I am sure the GFS will be there to tease you with the possibilities, maybe into May! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not interested in the spring thread on March 7th March is a winter month imo.. Early to mid March I would agree, at least in recent years. The end of March and into the second week of April.. maybe head to Canaan, or Maine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several April snows. Why would I think I live in Maine ? Seriously, 30 or 40+ snows in March and several in April, even up your way in north-central/northeast MD? Suppose it depends upon what one considers an actual snow event. I am a native of northeast Ohio, the climate is far more wintry there in March and even April. I can recall many events through March (average in KCLE is like 10") and in April (average there is like 2-3"). Including lake effect snows. Even considering all the somewhat more minor events in March in the time I lived there and beyond, it probably wasn't 30-40 total. And that's in an area where March can actually be considered a winter month most years. Maybe if one includes white rain and cartoppers but otherwise no. And I remember some big March snows to be sure... as well as in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care for drought either but can do without 4"+ rain in March in the hope of seeing a few wet flakes a time or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Speaking of March, its championship week for the conference tournaments. And next Thursday/Friday are hands down the two greatest sports days of the year. I'll be out of the office next Friday afternoon so a few friends/I can just hang out on a local bar and watch the games. Can't wait! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Recently started reading the off topic sub on here. That was a questionable decision, but is everything free game over there? The way some interact with others in there is embarrassing. Trixie and others come off as truly nasty people. Baffling to me why it’s allowed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not feeling great about Purdue in the Big 10 tournament (my alma mater). They had a good season and a 25-6 record but really stumbled at the end of the regular season in the kinds of games they'll need to win. I don't expect them to go far in that tourney but hopefully enough to land a 3-4 seed in the NCAAs. Then of course, who knows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
