One of my all-time favorite storms. I was in third grade at school. I was in Crownsville. I still remember the building shaking thunder and ripping snow. I got stuck at school most of the night. We had 13" in the lowlands. PG/AA County's jacked.

This time of year is a bonus imo. I drive out to South Mountain or the Catoctins for the day. I like hiking around in the snow all day. Then I drive 1.5 hours back to the lowlands where it's 47 and rainy lol. It makes winter seem longer. I get it though. 3-4" during January followed by 60 degree weather is lame. I'll still take it though lol

The Catoctins look good. LFG!

I've learned to add 12-24 hours to a forecast if it calls for clearing, dryer air to move in, colder air to move in. This rule of thumb definitely includes cold air chasing moisture. That one never ever works out in my area. I just ignore those forecast.

This little taste of exciting weather just makes me want more. That little burst of heavier rain and gusty winds got me into mood for a strong storm. Hopefully we can get a few ripping Nor'easters this late fall and winter. I big white Nor'easter would of course be epic.

Naaa.. this would be the drizzle and light rain it is today but 38 degrees lol

Hopefully we get better color here. Very disappointing to the west. It does seem a little slower this year as well. No rain at all today back here in the lowlands. Roads are dry and it's cloudy and breezy. Edit: Some heavy drizzle and light rain are blowing in from the NE.

Is it me or is the fall color late and daul this year? There's not much difference in color from here in the lowlands and the local Blue Ridge mountains. The tulip trees never got any color here nor there. The leaves just kinda fell off without turning yellow. The trees on top of South Mountain were just kinda brownish yellow. No color at all yet in the valley. Just half bare trees and green. I'm sure it has to do with the ongoing drought out there. The fall color was super disappointing this year out there.

Not mine. Mine is dry for the next 15 days lol

It's clearing up out here alone the Blue Ridge. It might be a nice day out this way. Good job NAM lol

I'm in an Airbnb at 1000' elevation on the western side of South Mountain. It's been pretty rainy here since last evening around 11 when the rain ran us inside and put out our fire. Rainy dreary morning here. It looks pretty dry everywhere else.

Yeah. It crushed your area. Pretty solid here too. 1-2" east of 95 to the bay. Flat lands 2-3".

I'm hugging the NAM 3k. It looks pretty rainy east of 95 starting tonight.

Looks like "bust". Shocker lol

You and a million others. I live right down the road from there. The traffic on our little back roads is crazy. If we're not getting a fun storm hopefully we can salvage the weekend. I'm hiking to Annopoils Rocks and Black Rock tomorrow. Looks good as of now.
