  1. Baltimore County contractors must be desperate for money. My cul de sac has been salted twice in the past hour.
  2. Couple of legit darker echoes showing up over SE Carroll and NW Baltimore County in the last few radar frames.
  3. Yup! Even if it's lightly precipitating, that's a good thing. The evaporational cooling keeps temps down.
  4. 18z GFS is nice. High end advisory event for everyone.
  5. Cold ground will do that 9.9/10 times. This isn't some event where it was 50 and sunny yesterday and we're waiting on rates to cool everything off.
  6. As of 3:00 pm on 1/15: BWI, M0.5" DCA, M0.7" IAD, M0.9"
  7. Clarksville mesonet site reporting a snow depth of M0.4".
  8. I prefer a model that is too slow on eroding cold air damming. For Example, if it shows you're above freezing by 12:00 pm and we know it has a cold bias, then it boosts confidence that things will clear up in the afternoon.
  9. Yup. We're playing with house money right now.
  10. Definitely a steady, light snow in Reisterstown. Temp 25 degrees.
  11. Used to live by the Rutters in New Salem. The old Colonial Gardens Apartments.
  12. First legit returns showing on LWX radar along the I-64 corridor.
  13. Only mesonet site in the state with ground temps above freezing is Clarksville, which is at 34 degrees. When the snow starts later today in earnest, it will stick quick.
  14. Knock off a few degrees for fresh snowpack.
  15. Exactly. No waiting on 3 hours of virga. Also, GFS looks better.
  16. Radar says no snow but I've had pixie dust since about 9am. Nice solid dusting on everything.
  17. No. I've just seen this before. Models juice up last minute and LWX has to play catch up for the northwest crew. We have a front, fresh air mass, and a low riding along it. Classic 4th quarter snow win.
  18. Getting ready for that late upgrade to a warning.
  19. It honestly wouldn't shock me to see a late upgrade to a Winter Storm Warning for the NW suburbs. I think everyone reels this in, with the usual suspects getting a late boom.
  20. Mesonet site in Clarksville shows 2 inch soil temps down to 34 degrees. Expect this to continue dropping today. Our Easton site shows a temp of 32 degrees at 2 inch soil depth. Expect the roads to get bad today.
  21. Dusting in Reisterstown from the overnight stuff.
