  1. Decent little temp disparity to our west. 34° in Cumberland, 19° in Oakland with the colder air pressing in.
  2. We can take the deeper discussion to the banter thread, but the fall line in DC only scrapes the far northwest part. Once you get pass east from the Nebraska - Colorado Ave corridor you're on the coastal plain.
  3. Looks like the rain/snow line is collapsing southeast in the past couple of frames. Right now is appears to be along Nebraska Ave.
  4. You can really see the mix line on the 0.5° CC scan on LWX radar...almost literally hugging I-95.
  5. The wet bulb temp is 30° in Gaithersburg according to the wx station at work. The RWIS site on I-495 at the American Legion bridge has a wet bulb of 31°.
  6. $20 says you'll get deathbanded in an hour. It's like clockwork up there...almost like you have some kinda of mini-HAARP off Rt. 30.
  7. Reminds me of the sneaky Wednesday evening event in 2016 that iced things up before the weekend snowstorm. Everyone was focused on the impending big snow and the roads were an ice rink from a coating of snow.
  8. Seems as though there has been an uptick in lighter returns on the radar over the past 30 min or so. Even a fewer heavier echoes showing up across northern Carroll, Baltimore and Harford counties.
  9. Looks like the front is through Cumberland...wind shift to the NW.
  10. Wonder if it's the southeast wind hitting Parrs Ridge. Seems like once the precip moves into Howard or Baltimore it fades out.
  11. Montgomery County schools dismissing 2.5 hours early today.
  12. Literal Carroll County jackpot right now. It's amazing how you always win.
  13. I like how the Maryland DOTs are wasting taxpayer money with bringing when it's going to start as a mix or rain (I-95 east) for a time.
  14. Notice how I didn't use concrete language. That was my feeling based off the marginal setup and how dry things were on the 12z run.
  15. Got a feeling the mason-dixon counties get an advisory this afternoon. Maybe northern howard and montgomery get one, but that's stretching it.
  16. That really isn't cold for what is supposed to be the coldest time of the year.
  17. If we somehow manage a solid event Tuesday then temps could be interesting post front. Fresh snowpack and air mass can yield interesting temperature departures.
