  1. Things definitely trending in the right direction for New England on the GFS and Euro. Heck, the 00z Euro and it's ENS appear ready to deliver a legit polar air mass late next week. Might crank up the lake effect machine.
  2. Yea I was surprised. The CC imagery suggested snow as far east as Sabilasville and Catoctin Mt, but only Garrett County appears to have picked up anything of consequence.
  3. I just checked the climate reports for both sites and did not see any snow recorded at either location.
  4. To my knowledge, that capability does not exist.
  5. The airport is getting developed and they started planting corn in the field nearby so the Td in the summer is getting weirder.
  6. What are those benchmarks? You can DM me if you don't want the peanut gallery giving you static.
  7. It's amazing how colder Westminster is compared to Reisterstown. Even colder is the Rt. 31 corridor to New Windsor and Union Bridge.
  8. Down to 28 in Reisterstown with a respectable frost.
  9. If the 850 low is over Hagerstown, I'd forecast a flip to rain. For DCA and IAD to max snowfall, we need the 850 low to run west to east along I-64. The December 2009 snowstorm is the best example of that: https://www.raymondcmartinjr.com/weather/2010/19-Dec-09-850MillibarMaps.html
  10. True, but as we've seen time and time again if we get a uncooperative Pacific, a la -PNA and/or -PDO, the NAO means squat.
  11. Let's see how we look in a month. Right now, I'm not so sure. This Nino isn't behaving like others and I'm worried we are going to be forever kicking the can this winter....again.
  12. -Warming climate -Persistent -PNA/+AO -East base El Nino -Persistent neutral to +NAO That plus we're staring down a dry November which historically does not bode well south of 40° North. I hope I'm wrong and I get bump trolled, but I don't see how BWI south get more than 50 to 75 percent of snow climo this year.
  13. I'm sorry about your dad. Mine passed in late September after a long illness. I hope your forecast is right, I'm extremely pessimistic about Mid Atlantic snowfall chances this year, moreso than usual.
  14. Yea there's nothing remarkable about that map to be honest.
  15. Ah there we go. There's our toaster in the bath tub look.
  16. I fully realize that things can and will change in the long term. That being said, I'm happy that we aren't seeing some extended awful Pacific puke zonal pattern with a southeast ridge.
  17. Got an image? Or is it the one referenced above?
  18. ^looks near normal with a bit of the polar vortex on our side of the globe?
  19. Could you imagine if this trended south and became a big wave along a front that gave us a cheap 5" of snow?
  20. That's some really nice high latitude blocking for late January and February. If we manage even a climo December temp and precip wise, I'll consider it a win.
  21. Philly can and has scored while Lancaster and Harrisburg are left dry. There is no better example of this than the Boxing Day 2010 event. Philly got over a foot of snow. Lancaster only got like 2".
