Mitchnick approves of this! He was always in favor of the "reshuffle" if I remember correctly. It does seem that we get snow more when things are not "just right". Maybe something will pop up in the short range and surprise us!
"volatile", "complicated" Aren't those adjectives that tend to not work out so well for Mid-atlantic area? Or is it more of the situation where if we keep getting lots of chances, one of them is bound to work out?

I always need to look at this to figure out what time the maps are referring to.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but experience tells me that sometimes right where the transition line of snow/no snow is there is a relative burst of energy that creates higher snowfall amounts on the winning side of that battle. Could this be the case in today's scenario? Or will it be simply snow to ice for those in the battle zone?
I appreciate your observations and insight during this event! You have been very positive/optimistic, yet reasonable and realistic about expectations. Keep it coming:)
It was my first year teaching in Baltimore County Schools. We missed so many days due to ice that that tacked on 30 minutes to each day for the last month of school. Also had to teach on Memorial Day. But the amount of ice was incredible! Loved it!!
