Nikolai Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Are the Philly weenies gloating over their comparably good winter. I really have not been looking at that forum. They are having two decent winters in a row. The only big east coast city that can claim that. Noone is gloating, and NYC's winter last year was also very good (50", as well as snowiest month on record). I think patience will prove that DC will still see significant snow this winter, just give it another week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Might finally get the 3-5 inch storm I have been looking for. Is it just me or was the WSW criteria lower in the past? I think that it used to be for four or more until last year. It was also when they added that dreaded "rush hour WWA" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I would feel better about the LWX 2 to 4 and 3 to 5 forecasts if they didn't just predict 2 to 4 on Saturday for areas of Maryland that ended up with a trace. Still, like how they included the entire region in at least 2 to 4, meaning they don't see much of a snowhole anywhere. I still think this is going to be close between minimal and o.k. snow, but not ready to bet we don't approach the upper limits of the forecast amounts in a few heavier bursts of snow tomorrow evening as storm starts cranking up.

We're gonna rally this storm to its optimum!! There's still time for improvements in the models! Mid Atlantic'ers NEVER give up!! We're even hardier than New Englanders like Weathafella!! Weathafella would keel over dead in a snowstorm that I could jebwalk 50 miles in easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
