Officially 1.5 inches 

this why I don’t care if I am under a WSW. I was supposed to get over 5 according to the warning. I basically got what I thought I would. 

Yeah same, got exactly the same total. And ditto on the WSW. Doesn’t mean much if this is the end result. We definitely got shafted and once again fell short.

Hopefully we truly score at some point this season.

Do you think one led to the other?

In other words, did that delay of cold air directly cause the frontogenesis bands to develop well NW of where most models had them?

I’m certain, yes. If the cold air boundary was faster and further south, the fgen band would also have been south. DC would have gotten what it was forecast for, and Harrisburg would have gotten much less. 

[ThePhotoGuy]

Probably 0.50-0.75 accumulation. Actually higher than what I thought it would be after first looking outside at 9 am. 

[WEATHER53]

The one outlier was  right 

Heres something very hard to say around here-

On Monday (afternoon ) highs 18-22 and turning COLDER .

Sorry this one didn’t pan out as well for folks South and East of me. Thought I helped bring some juju for a nice event, but the last minute game time shift cost a lot of folks and models didn’t do well with it.

I think you maintain your thread rights. This one wasn’t on you.

The dynamics and rates were definitely there. The damn cold being a little slow lesson prevailed for sure.

Feeling better and better about convincing my fiance to honeymoon in Massachusetts. Can't wait to escape this shallow-snow hellscape

I wanted to report earlier but didn't get a chance. I am just north of Frederick/south of Walkersville. It started out around 9AM(35.5degrees) as a fair amount of white rain, probably lost about close to a half in or more to that.  Thought for sure it was going to dud. But kicked in turned into snow by about 11am(32.4degrees) with accumulation. Then went to alternating heavy bands until about 12-5.  Ended up with about 4.2in. Definitely ended up with a few good bands over me.  Here are some of the pics toward the end.

You bastard. Every time you post shit like this it makes me want to make a bad financial decision and plunk down on a house at the top of the mountain out there.

[Eskimo Joe]

M3.0" storm total Reisterstown

[osfan24]

What a garbage weekend all around. Mark Andrews can walk home from Buffalo in the snow.

I swear I’m not from the deep creek business association.

Definitely fair to say anyone southeast of Fredrick County busted pretty badly even by the more conservative morning NWS predictions. 

 

[WEATHER53]

[winter_warlock]

Apparently that 2.0” report in Ashburn wasn’t actually from me, it was from a NWS employee. I just so happened to report that same exact amount. 

[mdhokie]

Its been a snowy January in western md. Skied early this morning before the crowds got crazy and got back home before the roads went to crap. Haven't seen roads this bad in a couple years up here. Not looking forward to the artic cold this week though.

I would've gone to the mountains this weekend if it weren't for family commitments yesterday and some extreme cold tomorrow. Looks like it was an incredible day today.

Yeah skiing when it's below zero actually isn't very much fun.  I once was in Killington when it was -20F to -25F and it was awful.  Like - we did a few runs and were like, OK, that's enough.

[Brianonymous]

My car turned white. That's about all I have to contribute.

[The Dude]

Ended up with .5" in N. Bethesda.  On to the artic cold!

[nj2va]

Down to 12, SN (borderline SN+ at times). Tonight’s been the best rates besides the 2 hour band earlier this afternoon that was legit SN+++. Should finish around 10-11” which is on the higher end of LWX forecast. 

[mikeg0305]

Hey experts. So in the end, which model did better and from what time frame? Just curious if anyone keeps track of the batting averages. I’m on the baseball analogies since the Ravens layed yet another egg in the playoffs. Enjoyed following the banter. Onto the next one.
