Looks like there’s not even a coating here lol. I’m starting to think Frederick might actually be worse at precip/snow than some of the spots to the south and East due to the rain shadow/valley effect.

Some of the mesoscale modeling yesterday was showing something of a snow hole here and they were right.  Flakes began to mix with the rain not long after midnight but it didn't fully change over until close to 3 AM, by which time the best banding had moved past.  This place is kinda weird like that--I moved here four years ago from a much higher elevation in MoCo and still haven't figured it out.  Not to worry--we'll get ours eventually.

What a beautiful morning here in Damascus. It definitely dipped below freezing here. It looks like about two inches on my yard (800’). There is also quite a bit of snow on the road as well. I might have to shovel my driveway (it’s steep) so I can get to work.

Yea, we’re in a little valley here...kinda like Hagerstown. I remember seeing an average snowfall map years ago showing some parts of upper Moco averaging more than downtown Frederick, which makes some sense. My elevation is only 300’, but within 10-15 minutes I’m at 1500’. Meanwhile, Damascus approaches 800’. The little snow maxes that show up in Frederick are typically over Catoctin.

Seeing all these photos of snow to my North, East, West and South. My area here in SW Fred County has absolutely nothing. 

I'm feeling your pain as well.  Nothing here in the I-81 corridor.  Hopefully there will be some up on South Mountain for the drive into work.
