Why shovel before rain? Not judging just curious.

In my case - cheap “old man” (mid-50s) cardio.

Check yo Bluesky for a pic. I would have been happy with 4”. I told friends and neighbors 5” was likely with max of 6-7”. I wasn’t that far off. I wish yall had better snows. Hopefully the next ones will do better there 

Just saw it on the Sky - yep - gorgeous . So fun. 

lol - here to help ! (Catastrophic development for @Fozz though…)

Total snow: 8.1”

was 6.1 at 10pm and looks like another 2” fell overnight. 

street plowed 2 times but it’s a mess. 

Woo! That’s a really great snowfall Andy - congrats - has to be gorgeous to wake up to. Enjoy!

@mappy

2.3”

Consistent across the screw zone - 

2.3 for your area , I am at 2.5 and t.august over in Havre is at 2.7.

modeling has been pretty great at sussing out the wall on these events in our area for a few years now…

it is pretty to wake up to in any event. Happy Wednesday to you!

I have a question. What is the deal about Short Pump? I hear it on here on the time, but then my daughter just went to the Short Pump mall last night! She's at school in Fredericksburg. 

 

Inside joke among longtimers - every so often a winter weather poster wanders into the site and only posts extreme IMBY questions and obs - the memorable ones to my aging memory in the last decade are the Short Pump person, Carbondale (who wasn’t even from our posting forum) , the “NE MD pummeled” poster (who is still around but karma has been making those obs irrelevant for six years now), and Ji.*

I’m only a few inches from climo imby and we may have another shot by next weekend. This winter has exceeded many expectations.

That’s true (but last sentence varies wildly by location lol)

8.2” here inf Fredericksburg.  Not bad. I expected 5” and happy for the extra. 

That’s a wonderful snow event - happy for your area, enjoy.

Just now, snowfan said:

Measured 5” on the mark. That makes for the second snowfall this season of 5” or more. Not bad for AA Co. Still need a few more inches to hit climo on the season. 

That’s excellent - and I really think you get there by mid-week next week.

Its pretty now. Lots of shoveling to do before it gets too wet and heavy. Not looking forward to the half inch of rain that will fall into it later. Then more rain this weekend. My driveway is going to become a mess.

Cleanup of heavy snow definitely less ideal, that is true. Got 2.5” and just cleared the driveway in about 10 minutes so score one for always being fringed lol…

At least 9" here. I will measure in a few spots. Obv there is compaction but I didn't do the snowboard thing so I will report what's otg.

Whoa - that’s excellent - glad for you - must be gorgeous 

I’m dog sitting tonight - so…two inches it is for my locale.

2 inches at my home in Monkton.

I'm really glad i didn't drive to northern Jersey today

It’s terrible on the roads even where it isn’t pouring snow.

Treachrous as hell leaving Roland park area at 6:30. Roads were hella icy. Three separate wrecks I passed on 83 from northern parkway to the beltway.

took an hour to get to monkton.

1” on the ground here so far when got to my home.

I’m not even in area that will see much snow so not a note about my frustration with the model and all but…

…can we all just agree not to ever ever ever use the hrrrrr during an unfolding winter event? Like, ever?

Flurries downtown baltimore looking out my window 20 floors up. No idea what it is like in Monkton.

someone else see Feb 25 on the GEFS...I don't want to be the one to say it...what that is way too close to in terms of a setup 

March 2001?

Boxing day 2010?

Don't even suggest to me it goes to our south, or else! Lol

My money is on miss East this time.

We keep missing all these baby storms to the south. That is okay, because the north will get the monster at the end of the month. 

North of us?

yes, that’s true.

29.8/23. Clouds held off long enough to cool almost 16° from my high yesterday. 
 

Now the waiting game begins. Good luck to everyone and I hope y’all see lots of snow

We won’t up here but enjoy this again - nice that you got good early help on the temps , should be a really good winter event.

Sticking with my 5.6" call from yesterday for mby with some amazing consistency with some of these models give or take some wobbles. Has Woodbridge to Fredericksburg ever NOT been in the bullseye with this thing? That type of long run hit is what we all wish for. Congrats guys enjoy the snow.

It has been super consistent for that group, yes. File it under “I definitely want to be in the bullseye on every run every time”…
