I'm surprised there isn't a watch for the periphery counties along the warned counties. If the thermals are right on the globals, it would be a low end warning event.
I guess it's not a big deal, but it just seems to me that having the watch and then issuing an advisory if the warning criteria is not going to verify has been the norm for years.
You had the same issue when I was a guest there way, way back! I can't recall what winter it was, but I think you walked me back there to see it.
That's the same house you both operated as a B & B, right?
I’m sorry for your loss. It was a long time ago and I was just a kid, but my grandfather’s funeral was during a typical 2-4” DC snow and there were a lot of old folks there too. We all got through it and the snow made for a special day that my family still talks about fondly.
