If I could just get a taste of that deathband down here in Colesville for even just 15 minutes I'd call it a storm and move on to tracking the mid/long range again.
Definitely seems like north of the Potomac and then north of US50 might be your best shot at seeing more wintry weather today. And ideally the further NE the better (of course).
Surprisingly lost only a few of my parent's bamboo stalks (big swath of it between the neighbors and their house). Still no sign on the snow here - light freezing rain persisting. No pingers that I can hear either.
Makes sense - I am getting a couple drops of rain still - so either freezing drizzle or light freezing rain. Hope to switch soon since Gaithersburg has flipped.
Radar showing some very light (but noticeable) enhancement over the bay as well as in the area down near ADW. Seems a decent chunk of the area may be moistening back up.
CC shows mix line pretty much right along I-95 up to near Laurel/Bowie and other than that mainly south of BWI to Rock Hall. Pretty standard line for climo purposes.
Was just outside doing another shoveling of the walk and driveway. Sounded like sleet and it was definitely snowing a little harder. Perhaps it was graupel. Not quite as pingy as I'd expect sleet to be.
The activity near Springfield and Alexandra has blossomed a bit northward the last few scans of the radar. And that linear thing to the west is still persisting/heading east.
I have the snow bible book set...and I just cannot sit myself down to learn the nuances. That's why I'm mostly absent in the mid/long range threads and pattern threads until it turns into obs.
Maybe the mods can just make a whole new category of account type just for you. "THE LEGEND" sort of like a red tagger without being degreed in meteorology.
