  1. Whenever the rates quick up, we flip right to snow and it's quick. When they back off, it's sleet and a mangled occasional flake.
  2. 26/25 in Reisterstown with big flakes starting to mix in with the sleet again.
  3. Significant improvement on all of the NAMS for I-70 north.
  4. 850 low looks like it's trying to close off around the tidewater of Virginia.
  5. Per the SPC mesoanalysis, the 925 low has closed off over the SC/NC border. This should help lock in low level sub freezing air for places that are already below freezing.
  6. When I went to put the recycling out, I measured 3.8" It's actually a nice moderate snowfall now, but I'm not sure how long this is going to last. If it were to persist through even midnight I'd definitely clear 6".
  7. Actually moderate snow in Reisterstown. If this keeps up for a few hours, I might push low end warning criteria.
  8. Updated totals: IAD, 2.7" BWI, 2.3" Still haven't seen anything from DCA.
  9. Your temp drop is almost certainly from diurnal swing. The SPC meso analysis has the 925 and 850 temps well below freezing.
  10. M3.5" Reisterstown (I'm the report on the PNS). Grass starting to really get covered now. Happy I left my Christmas lights up. Going to turn them on tonight. Just 11 months until Santa time!
  11. Man, WBAL always hugs their IBM models. This morning they had 6" - 12" north of I-70.
  12. Per the SPC meso analysis, the coastal low looks pretty close to popping.
  13. Despite weak radar return in Reisterstown, we have steady SN-. 25/24
  14. Both of the 18z NAMS are encouraging for the Maryland side of the Potomac, and especially up through Frederick, Carroll, and Baltimore to the NE.
  15. Posting this for future reference. The latest update from SPC meso analysis page show the nasty dry slot at 700mb. If this low was over Kentucky, just about everyone would be in a better situation.
  16. From the warm air advection, probably. But everyone is still hoping on the coastal to deliver some love and it's still possible, especially up here in the Baltimore area.
  17. The latest HRRR has the DGZ high and ry through about 7 to 10 pm. After that things become more favorable for steadier precip. in Maryland.
