An hour doesn’t sound that bad actually. Seems common around the greater region. Thought about Winchester at one point. Hour and 15 without traffic. Still thinking that over a bit. Doesn’t snow there either anymore it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I left southern MD to be in the N&W burbs 30 years ago and it's paid off a number of times. Now nearing retirement we want a big yard (like yours) and my wife has been floating the idea of Calvert where much of my family is. Uh yikes? But snow is rare even here now so it might not really matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought about Winchester at one point. Hour and 15 without traffic. Still thinking that over a bit. Doesn’t snow there either anymore it seems. It's not awful IMO. Baltimore isn't typically as bad as DC area with rush hour. Plus I often can get in and out without hitting the worst of it if I plan my commute. But it's still an extra hour than if I lived where most who commute in and out of the city do. My point is anyone could do what I do, I don't have some special birth right. I made a choice to move to the snowiest spot within reasonable commuting distance to DC/Baltimore. It's not 100% the snow, I do love it up here all around. I could do with a few less confederate flags...ugh, but its not most people. And its beautiful, and in the summer its 85 instead of 93! And there are a lot of recreational outdoor activities. But the snow was a BIG part of it, I wont lie. This would be a bit further to DC...but you could easily commute to one of the ridges near Mt Airy from DC in about the same time as my commute to Baltimore...and they don't to quite as good as me but they do about as much better than DC than I do v Baltimore. I sympathize with the snow weenies still in DC or Baltimore. I really do. I lived in the DC area for a long time. And it wasn't enough snow to make me happy...so I moved! But you all could do that...no wait...then we would have an UHI up here too...dont do that. There are no places. It's awful up here. The wolves terrorize us daily. Stay away. Oh on topic...things are trending better to break the 1" streak. At this point the thing I would be most worried about in DC would be for the boundary to shift back north because that initial wave amplifies before it can clear the area. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being at 1030 at the summit of a ridge is way different than at 1030 in a valley. Not the same results... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I didn’t know what upslope meant until I had a place at 2800 feet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the number of times it does NOT predict what the other meso models are about to do, I kind of think its the last run of the previous data. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta think there’s another NAMing inbound since it’s the Nams ensemble. Most models are actually in pretty solid agreement about the local max area that expands from eastern hoco’ish to points NE hugging the bay. BWI may end up actually being a pretty decent spot for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
