Wow you guys accumulate fast

When we get it haha.  Last storm we got like 3".  

1" so far here in Emmitsburg 

Snowing lightly but steady. Emmitsburg at M/D line

Pretty much back to light dust at M/D line Frederick county. Is it over for us? As much as I love this I do have to work tomorrow. .

Big fat flakes up near the M/D line now after a period of falling dust.

I honestly didn't even expect it to begin here at the M/D  line N.Central MD Frederick county by now but it started maybe an hour maybe hour and a half ago.... very fine but roads have caved.

Roads are covered now Emmitsburg at the base of the Catoctins!

Light flurries starting to fly in Emmitsburg at the M/D line NW Frederick county MD!

Hey guys. Here's my updated snowfall totals. After getting up at 315am this morning, I'm dog tired and will not be doing a long post this go around. We all know what's been transpiring in terms of model guidance. I think I'm still hedging conservative in spots, but this is my final call for the storm. Now, here's a great storm for everyone in here. Enjoy!! I'll be watching from the sidelines in the Lone Star state.

If you wind up being right N.Frederick Co at the Catoctins is in for a rude awakening. I'm in Emmitsburg and no one I've talked to is expecting more than an inch. Accufail is even saying maybe 1-2. 

Trained spotter says 7.5 for Thurmont, MD which is about 9 miles to my south on MD 15. Steady sleet now, very gray skies. Will be interesting to see what falls on top during the night/early am. Looks like another snow day for the kids tomorrow most likely in Frederick County. Roads here are a royal mess.

Coming down extremely hard again. 6.25" in Emmitsburg( by M/D line Frederick County).

5.5" and parachutes falling...

Giant snowflakes just started in Emmitsburg again..it's piling up!

Just remeasured we are actually at 4" near M/D line in Emmitsburg and it's snowing hard.

They JUST changed us to a WSW for 4-6. We are already at 4.

Came home to Emmitsburg (Frederick county) from Westminster (Carroll county). Roads are an absolute wreck. Heavy snow 3" so far

Ok so this is my very first post after reading for a bit so excuse me if I sound a bit uneducated(or completely)

I'm in Emmitsburg,MD. Extreme NW Frederick County, MD.. approx 10 miles from Gettysburg,PA if that helps. Our local forecast keeps saying rain/sleet/1-3 snow? Yet the maps here don't seem to jive with that. We're in Catoctin Mountain.

Anyways..I need to drive tomorrow at 7am from here to Westminster, MD. Can anyone give me an actual idea of what I can expect? Then I drive back at 4pm.

Thanks.
