If in a couple Hours it’s pouring rain and still 36 degrees then it’s time to panic. I guess it depends on where you are but I am in Ellicott City and its already snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted Sunday at 03:35 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:35 PM Snow has picked up in intensity finally. Looks like the surface freezing line is along the Frederick/Washington County line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldie 22 Posted Sunday at 03:36 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:36 PM Biggest issue i see in my yard is there's simply no precip and frankly current radar isn't inspiring. Patiently waiting for the afternoon band to swing through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess something like this only comes to the forefront this time since we just so happened to be getting snow right in front of a cold front! When was the last time those two things happened together? I don't recall having that (I guess because typically we don't do cold chasing precip very often). Interesting I can't think of a snow situation but I remember it happening several times in previous winters when people would get crazy before cold fronts. Especially midnight daily high temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband and I commented on it being a wet snow vs drier. It is snowing pretty good but no sticking to grass or pavement. Kind of like a March snow. Still pretty to watch.

But as it was just explained, my temp will likely rise more as the cold air causes my warm air to burst into flame, turn the ground to lava and cause the snow to dry upon contact. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
