  1. Best snow of the winter in Reisterstown. Looks like a legitimate snow event. M1.0"
  2. If you look at PBZ radar, there is some semblance of a meso-low crossing western PA/far northern WV. Might be the reason why we're seeing a bump up in the snow.
  3. My three favorite sites are: Seed Savers Exchange, Baker Creek, and Territorial. All three sites have a great virtual presence and you can get their free catalogs in the mail. If you sign up for their mailing list, the catalog will come sometime in mid-January which really spurs the itch for spring.
  4. You can get a good sense of the 1,000ft. + areas by using Google maps and turning on terrain LINK One last band coming your way. CTP put an SPS on it.
  5. Really good call by LWX to up southern Maryland to a winter storm warning yesterday. It's unfortunately verified very well with all the ice...as of 8:30 am, ~12% of St. Mary's County is w/o power. https://mema.maryland.gov/Pages/Power-Outages-Data.aspx
  6. Sustained fine mist with occasional snowflake or IP falling in Reisterstown. 26/26
  7. Total skating rink in Reisterstown. 26/26.
  8. Freezing drizzle in Reisterstown at 27 degrees. Everything is quickly getting encased.
  9. Watch the activity on the back end turn everything into an ice palace tonight and we somehow trip into an ice storm.
  10. Time sensitive, but check out the Base Velocity on LWX radar. Near the radar site, you have inbound returns to the north of the site, indicating N/NE flow. But if you look at the returns over Hagerstown, it's outbound, indicating southerly flow aloft. Not something you see every day in these parts.
  11. Checking out my obs on the home weather station online, winds flipped to NE and temp dropped to 26. Looks like something trying to blossom on radar to our west?
  12. Welcome! How's the ice accretion down there?
  13. Ji melting down contributed to the expansive warm layer.
  14. Well this winter was fun. Time to dust off the ole' fishing rods and get ready for bass season.
  15. Amazing content on a free site.
  16. Yea the 5a - 7am timeframe in New Windsor was amazing. Big fluffy snow that just piled up.
  17. Correct METAR code would be IP+
  18. Meso'd: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/2021/md0119.html
  19. It's all about the upper levels with this one. SPC meso analysis show 700mb temps are +1 to +2 so everything is melting. I'll still take this over the 50 and rain the GFS had for us early on Sunday.
  20. The sleet is bonding to the road surface more efficiently than snow. The ICC is having similar problems, especially on the bridges.
