I'm curious how many of us have moved north to get more snow in years past...i'm one of those who did moving from Woodbridge to Leesburg back in 04

I grew up in northern Calvert and got shafted many times while occasionally getting the jackpot (for example Blizzard of '79).  Getting a few inches of slush then driving rain and spiking to 50 in the March '93 storm was the last straw.  When I got a fed gov job, I picked the N&W burbs and settled in Germantown in 1994

My fam are all still there and have fun with me when they win - like the 12 they just got.  They had a field day with me on Jan 25, 2000 when they got 20" and I got 7!

If you'd be willing to take one for the team and cancel today so the 00Z runs bring it back, that would be huge.

sorry - no dice. taking ya'll down with me on this one. Just to make sure this post isn't entirely banter, here are the 12z GEFS members. Still a bomb or three in the mix - but safe to say the median outcome is a more SE oriented light/mod snowstorm.

Ya just really hate to see that northern vort outrunning the southern one, which is doing...all in all, no doubt the height rise is better out front.  Keep expectations in check.  Still has that other SW to NE tail look.  Ugh

It really is so close to something much more substantial. The smallest differences have big time downstream implications.

If the NS SW isn’t going to dig in behind we would have been better if it just wasn’t there at all.

so precip is increasing from our SW and starts light snow around 12z Sat, and just flies through by like 17z or so.   Doesn't seem like much of anything at all.   I'd be surprised if it's more than 2"

In some ways it’s a better run with a worse result. Closer to giving us a coastal result but because of that kills the moderate idea from 6z as it dries up the n/s energy.
