We have a WWA overnight up here, will see what comes of it. Leaving back for Calvert tomorrow, traffic is gonna suck. 28F and overcast right now.
-
Moderate to occasionally heavy upslope here for the past few hours. I think we've gotten 2" or so but it's hard to tell because the wind is so strong it just blows it around. 19F right now.
-
About an inch overnight. Wind is relentless, 21F with wind-chill of 5F.
-
I believe it. I'm glad there aren't any leaves on the trees anymore.
-
Ah geez power going in and out now. I'm glad I had all the lines on my property run underground so it's not my fault.
-
Gale like winds on top of meadow mountain. 30F with occasional light snow right now. Wood stove going on blast.
-
We made the drive out to the cabin in Swanton this afternoon. Drove through heavy rain for several hours, it was a mess. 50F here now with misty rain but we're supposed to get well into the teens with snow showers by the end of the week. Hopefully my first flakes of the season in person.

When I was a sophomore (2000 I think) at college in Flint,MI the night before my Digitals 2 and Calculus 4 final exams we got 16" of snow. Whole college shut down and all the finals were canceled! I can't remember how they ultimately calculated our grades but we were all pretty stoked about it.
-
SoMD would be sweating the rain/snow line for the whole event. That's what I want to see, the big ones are always a stressful event down here.
-
That's clearly some sort of anomalous error and not representative of normal. Most people I know IRL just use their apple weather app when they check the weather, they're not going to AccuWeather.com much less listening to the local news or looking at models. I can't think of the last time any person has ever talked to me about the weather forecast they saw on TV.
-
I'll take my chances straddling the warm/cold boundary, that's where the action can be. 60F/sunny and 20F/sunny look the exact same through my window on Christmas day.
-
Live weathercasters are pretty much obsolete at this point outside of extreme events which the news stations just cover anyway. Everybody can look at their phone for decent real-time forecasts whenever and wherever they want nowadays.
-
Probably that and some confirmation bias on my part after reading that previous post.
-
What happened? We went from December-to-remember to canceling winter in 12hrs, best I can tell. This is JB level capitulation.
-
Somebody mentioned this earlier... Was driving home from Annapolis this afternoon and noticed a Japanese cherry that was about half in bloom. Wonder why, not like it's been warm out or anything this fall. Weird.
-
That low for 12/5 needs to be in the Florida Keys at this point for me to take it serious at this range on the GFS.
-
Winter forecast on the rocks? Ain't no surprise. I'm sure last fall there are those who doubted my patented Wayne Dyer Spiritual Forecasting Principles(tm). But we all saw how central Calvert was jackpot for the big storm and got several snows afterwards. If you employ these principles you might manifest the northward shift in the snows.
-
We all know March is gonna be cold, windy and cloudy. It's the surest call of them all.
-
It's just like last winter already. Don't get too down, they'll let up. In May.
-
I've noted that trend too. Especially with the euro.
-
We're going full pleistocene baby! Apologies to northern Michigan though.
-
When I look at last year's snowfall it seems pretty normal outside of the anomalous Gulf Coast snow. Sure we got more snow in Calvert county than Baltimore but that was really just luck from one storm and it due to climate shift. At least that's my take.
-
So are we gonna have an epic winter with big snows or is it gonna be cold, dry and windy? That's the question.
-
Baltimore got almost 3ft of snow from the 2016 blizzard where SoMD got just over a foot. You had to know there'd be payback for that.
-
15F and it looks kike about 2" of snow in Garrett. 32F here in Calvert. My sister in Charlotte, SC sent us a video of a show shower yesterday afternoon so yeah it was snowing there.
