North Balti Zen

In other contexts, that would be a congrats moment, assuming consent.

If we could get it to snow, it would be snow on snow in my neighborhood as we've held snow cover in the shady spots thanks to the freezing rain glaze over the snowpack from Monday AM.

He did not great, as most of us in Baltimore did not great. But he's also too damn negative too often. I blame him for our misses in Balt City. Bad juju.

As it turns out, I hate the HRRR so symbiosis is achieved.

Um. The council has met and it was a quick...GTFO of the realm. Unanimous vote.

I vote casual, but only if mofos give correct PBP and stop effin' guessing...

Fringed.

For you Millersville folks, this is a fun pic that Peter Mullinax just put up on his twitter feed: https://twitter.com/wxmvpete/status/1357845895165980672?s=20

The council already banished one person from the realm. Don't make me re-convene the council.

Capital Weather PoPo?

That layer of freezing rain from Monday that crusted over the snow here in Balt has had the benefit of really helping the snowpack hang on - at least in my part of the city. We may actually get enough to remain to call it snow on snow for Sunday...

The council has met. You are summarily banished from the realm.

Crippling. If temps are in the mid-20s and we get steady light rain, it would be crippling. God forbid it would be even a little windy to boot. True ice storms are very rare. The Nashville one mentioned in 1994 was one such - that stretched all the way back along I-40 to Oklahoma if memory serves. Anyone who cares at all about trees, power, and the like should not want to see a true ice storm.

Just a grammy short of an EGOT in his case. And he was grammy nominated a few times. Cicely Tyson and Cloris Leachman this week too. Just absolute giants.

RIP to Christopher Plummer. Absolute legend, all the way to the end. He was fantastic in Knives Out just last year.

"Outside the band" is on the Baltimore City coat of arms...

We appreciate your sacrifice.

My more serious answer about why people care is that is what makes it feel "real" to them, as opposed to a weather model fantasy.

Um, watches and warnings make it snow. You know that.

Seriously.

Not even close.

You think ICON has a COLD bias? Seriously?

New thread, DD!

Tell you what, I am gonna urge the ice encrusted snow cover to battle as hard as it can to hang on enough to help a little with temps for the Sunday dealie.

The council nods. Then it nods again.
