This. It has been an absolute squeeze job, and I'm trying to figure out why. It's like the climo has shifted or something so that we just don't do well enough in these west-east slider like systems...it's like it always favored south of me, and I don't ever remember another time where even I, not being as far north as you, got fringed this much. Ordinarily it's DC with temp/mixing issues...but since 2019 they haven't had that with these types of sytems. I will never trust a system like this again unless it shows mixing south of me. Heavy rates just don't get up here that way lately...smh

The timeframes people are talking about are so small in the overall scale of things that you can't put it down to climate shifting. Sometimes places have shit luck for a period or there's some sort of cycle we're going through. No way to know for sure.

You said it well, the corridor along 70 east of the Catoctins up through Westminster proper and across to say Hunt Valley and north have been the worst off relative to their averages. Even in my area, the November storm was rain/snow mix 3 miles from me, 1" a couple streets down, but 2.5" up here at 900ft. 

I’ve lucked out in the last 3 big ones. I think I jacked 2019.  But overall I’m at 50% of climo over the 2016-17 to 2023-24 period. It all evens out. But when you get fringed I know it’s painful.

Not terrible at face value, nice scene of snow falling and over 3" OTG here. Not 6+ but maybe I grab 1-3" this afternoon/evening.

Not here in Dundalk. It’s interesting, I’ve been lulled basically since 930. I don’t see anything falling now. So maybe some sketchy things going on with radar truth 

Don't know what he is talking about. I don't see any bands on radar, either.

Agree. i mean Richmond just broke a snow drought of 1 plus inch snowfall that lasted over 1000 days yesterday. No one up here can come close to claiming anything like that.

Very fine snow falling currently just to your south over the Patapsco River even though radar isn’t showing anything.
