  1. Weather forecasting predates models, IIRC.
  2. If he can make it over to Colesville, he can add us to his client list.
  3. I was 7 years old for the '66 blizzard and our Silver Spring neighborhood was buried. We had tons of fun tunneling through drifts. The biggest one I can recall was about 8-10 feet tall and completely blocked access to the front porch and door of a good friend's house. Another, in his backyard, was about 5 feet but was a consistent 5 feet all over his flat backyard, except the area right against the house which had so little snow you could see the grass.
  4. Worst of it looks headed straight to Baltimore.
  5. Exactly. Maybe they should spend less time giving stupid names to winter weather, more time vetting their data feeds.
  6. Yup, but not consistently. One screen says 2in. Drill down says 1 in.
  7. On wunderground.com the forecast for my closest weather station - Stonegate - said 2 inches for today, same underlying source, presumably.
  8. So, if we get rid of it altogether, we get more snow!
  9. 1966 there were drifts over 10' in my White Oak Maryland neighborhood. Endless fun for my seven year old self.
  10. March 13th, 1993, in DC area anyway. My daughter's second birthday.
  11. Okay, And if you get that Rockville-Columbia death band, please make sure it is wide enough to include Cloverly. And Colesville. That is all.
  12. Heading there in a couple of hours for the Caps-Jackets game. Wondering how bad the drive from Glenmont Metro back to Cloverly is will be afterward, around 10:30pm.
  13. Nice for weenies, but I hope that's not their primary way of alerting the public. Way too complicated.
  14. This plus a fabled 50-75 mile shift to the north.
  15. Okay, but Google agrees with my memory from when I worked in Chantilly 40 years ago.
  16. I thought 50 and 66 crossed each other.
  17. Where else should people comment from, under several feet of surge?
  18. Please, make this so. the humidity is starting to cause my hardwood floors to cup, despite keeping the AC on very cold. Probably should get a dehumidifier.
