  1. Hmmm... I was going by the nearest station on Wunderground. Sometimes its precip totals seem low, so maybe it was more than that in reality. Another nearby station has almost 0.7".
  2. 64/63 with 0.34" so far. Feels like a fall day today. Amazing for late July.
  3. Got up to around 97 here. I just hope we don't hit triple digits either here or at BWI. 2010 to 2012 gave us more than enough of that.
  4. Looks like they could beat that total today. Who would've thought they'd get a 1 in 1000 year flood twice in less than two years?
  5. The sky looks exactly like that down here. Storm is about to hit any minute.
  6. My area has had some of the lowest precip totals of the subforum in the last 2 weeks. But it looks like this one isn't going to be another shaft, so it means a lot to me.
  7. Even here the skies are getting dark to the north.
  8. If I were you then I’d drive into that storm. Doesn’t look far from you.
  9. Still seeing constant lightning to the east. That's probably MiddleRvr's storm.
  10. Same here. If you look at radar estimates of precip totals, you'll see a little hole just north of the Balt beltway and west of 83. That's where I am.
  11. Wow nice. My area was basically caught between two cells. Another storm just passed to my north just now. They’ve been cleaning up in the past week. I’m not a whiner but I’m starting to feel a bit like EastCoastNPZ
  12. Nice storm will pass just to my north and maybe skirt my area. Just like last week.
  13. I wouldn't call it a mini-version since it was a whole year, but yeah 2003 was similar in that it was very wet (one of the wettest years on record in Baltimore) and was a very cold, snowy winter.
  14. December 2013 to November 2014 was an amazing 12 month period. I don't know when we'll see anything like it again.
  15. Probably Sandy. The derecho wasn't as impressive here as it was to my south.
  16. I'm starting to wonder whether this March will end up colder than not only February, but also January and December. Some of the guidance is predicting some scary cold for the next few weeks, and since the actual met winter months have been so mild, I think we have a shot at March being colder than any of them, not just relative to normal but also in an absolute sense. I wonder how many times that has happened. Probably in 1960, but that sure isn't easy to achieve.
  17. I think we just need to remind ourselves (even though most of us already know it) that winters that are this bad, aren't the norm at all. Winters where the Carolinas to SE VA, as well as the cities north of 40N get big storms, while we get almost nothing, are NOT NORMAL. Otherwise, the whole "DC sucks" narrative gets out of control like it just before the last 3 good winters.
  18. 2/10/10 Jan 2016 PDII December 2009 2/6/10
  19. From what I remember, the blizzard didn't really get going until mid-late morning, and I remember waking up surprised to see blizzard warnings in the area. From late-morning through until sundown, it was just an amazing day for those who were in the favored spots.
  20. My personal ranking: Feb 10, 2010 January 2016 PDII December 2009 Feb 6, 2010 I was too young in 1996, otherwise it would've certainly been up there. I still consider Feb 10 my favorite because the winds were incredible... much more impressive compared to the storm on Saturday, though the totals were slightly lower. I think most people from Baltimore north are going to rank that one very high. January 2016 is a close second.
