Yeah this one looks like a losing battle (particularly for the cities)...Figured we'd be trolled by finally getting a coastal track...but with not enough cold air around, lol So is this it, I'm guessing? If so...we certainly held true to the weak Niño average of 15"...lol (maybe 18" if we get 2-3 tomorrow morning!)
Yeah I mean this is probably the best we could've gotten out of this event (aside from the dryslot hours, lol). Will still have snowcover to enjoy for another, er...24-48 hours? Lol
(Suprised ya didn't mention 2009/10, 2003, etc, haha) Wouldn't say storms like this one are THE reality, but rather what's more common. A big storm can become the reality anytime of year...but the likelihood? Very inconsistent, lol
I had a personal forecast of 2-4 inches for Balt. City....and sure enough we got exactly 4"! Lol Of course there's a good dose of "what could have been"-itis here...but still not a bad event!
If this were going to be all snow this dry slot wouldn't be as much of an issue...but obviously, since this will eventually changeover to rain, we needed to squeeze as much out of this period of time as we could...because the mixing line marches, lol
Now I'm hoping our slow start here in Baltimore won't hurt us later with the totals! Probably got about 1.5 inches so far...can't see us getting 4-6 unless we're supposed to stay snow longer?
Yeah, I mean...the snow greed in me wants to be jealous, but...just being able to go outside and be surrounded by it...(and using my shovel for the first time since 2016)...nice start to our prime climo! Can't wait to see what's on tap in the coming weeks!
Amazing how the city has kinda been the dividing line (even since the deeper colors on would halt literally at the city...why is that? Just topography, or just where the entire storm happened to be positioned?)
Only measuring about 4 here in northeast Balt. City...but perhaps I may not be measuring correctly, lol Been in a lull the last couple hours, but some furries starting to move in again. I still want to hit the 5 inch mark!
Off to bed I go (although church service is cancelled tomorrow...always feels a bit odd when I don't have to play on a Sunday morning, lol) See, I don't need to stay up to watch every flake...I find it more enjoyable to fall asleep in anticipation and wakeup to see how things look!
