North Balti Zen

Every time - "where in the hell did that piece of energy come from? Ah well, nevertheless..."

The real ones know, there is ALWAYS a hidden kicker lurking to pop up on the modeling about this time. At least, when it affects the warning-level snow-hole zone currently in effect for six years and counting between my area and Havre de Grace...

Miss?? Cause of 1 gfs run??

Relax you. @T. August knows we got this. Dodging warning levels snow events like Neo dodging bullets.

Don’t look at the individual members 

Look at us reeling in another potential miss! Hot streak, baby!

That’s rich coming from you.

Right??? Growth!!!!

Even the Canadian is still an area wide warning snowfall, fucking put on your big person pants people. Jesus.

Snowing pretty good in hunt valley

It will be ironic if the Canadian and EURO go south at 12Z...

Shut your mouth

I mean there is a difference between getting 8” and being upset someone else got 12” and getting 3” when others got 8-12”.  I’m fine with not being the jack so long as I get into the “meat” of the storm and not another fringe 

I think people are COMPLETELY missing that point - thanks for making it again.  It's not being out of the jack, it is missing the good stuff entirely.  24 hours of snow that accumulates 3 inches kinda stuff. That has been that way for years and years for many of us up this way.

@Ralph Wiggum, cut that shit out.

I am not really getting involved in the 20th until Monday at the earliest.  I mean missing to the East, would sum up my winter of getting missed by every direction.

Oh, I think we can book that from here...

Hi Everyone!  Longtime reader here for many years, and have been following the models for this storm.  I have seen a couple of people note timing for next week's storm.  I have a critical appointment next wed afternoon and am hoping someone may be able to provide some insight into a likely start time (I know we are still aways away) so I can plan accordingly.  Thank you for all of the great posts- always an interesting read.  Cheers!

Welcome - genuinely too early to guess at that. Might not even be a storm to time out.

Pann also infamously went too low in Snowmageddon part 1, though not nearly as bad as 2016.

He got off for years on being contrarian - he would literally forecast the opposite of the modeling.  When modeling showed a no snow or small snow event, he would grab the outlier snowiest model and push that. And, yes, he totally underforecast a few of the biggest area storms, again, I think because it was his shtik.

No way. Tony pann calls for snow during the summer.

He was in a full blown contrarian phase. It was bizarre. Then I no longer had to read his shit because I got the block hammer...

He was doubling down on 3-6 for balt city in real time on twitter even as it was already vomiting snow - I wore him out for a bit on that and then he sent me to the shadow zone…

No regrets!

This made me laugh out loud. I remember those posts. 

Ancient history. Only posts like that now come from Calvert County on the regular...

I’m now getting to the stage where I’ll do 5-2” shovel jobs instead of one shovel after it’s done to not destroy my janky back. 

That too. 100%.

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”

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