Just curious. This was posted Jan 20. It’s now September 1. How did we do? Looks like we hit number 2 and number 3. Not number 1. Jury still out on 4? 2020 not done yet. .

I watched it. It was meh. The trees blew a bit. I'm sure there will be localized reports of damage. But the video was meh. Back to watching the tropics again, the lack of severe weather in Baltimore, and the early 'winter is over' discussion on the other threads.

This is exactly the cam I have been watching for 30 min. I have Radarscope dialed in too.

Given the fact it is 2020, the next region-wide event might just be a named storm. After the dust settles down in the tropics.

How’s today’s chances looking? Atmosphere was pretty worked over last evening. .

Don't forget the abysmal winter before that either!

And the no-go wins. Barely a shower.

Certainly no severe but some yellows and reds to the west and some rumbles of thunder in the distance. It’s go no-go time. Just enough time to fall apart before it hits or strengthen. We shall see. .

Pity storms. Almost adds insult to injury. It’s like getting a 2 run HR bottom of the 9th when your down 18-3. .

I am the probably the only forum member in Baltimore County that did not get a drop of rain or flash of lightning. Chestnut Ridge. This is day 2 of zip nada zilch zero. We did have a 6 mph gust so not all is lost. Talk about a snow hole jeez this is so much worse. Going to go for the hat trick tomorrow. .

Answer: For 1 to 13 odds for winning; Probability of: Winning = (0.0714) or 7.1429% Losing = (0.9286) or 92.8571% "Odds for" winning: 1:13 "Odds against" winning: 13:1 .

It's really gotten bad when the most we can hope for in the climatologically favored snowless February is a potential rumble of thunder and wind shift in the middle of the night with overcast skies and little surface instability. Maybe a special radio show is in order?

We only do that here. For every threat. :--)

I thought PD1 was in 2003 and PDII was in 2006. Am i wrong about that?

I have one but can't post till Sunday. Check back.

This was my favorite image from Snowmageddon. I had been hyping this storm to my Facebook Profile for 4 days prior to the storm. I was going BIG the whole way (thanks to this Board - well, I mean the predecessor Board, but same folks). 36 hours before Snowmageddon started, I posted "2.8 - 3.2 QPF !!!!!" on Facebook. Of course nobody knew what that meant, so my post read "If this storm verifies, it will be the largest storm in history to ever hit Baltimore (it wasn't - that was "officially" February 15-18, 2003) (see footnote 1 below). When people asked me what that meant, I said "28 to 32 inches". Many gave me a "like" button, some said "Bring it", etc., but all the other posters made comments such as "nobody else on tv is/are calling for that" (remember that was 36 hours prior to start). When it verified, I was a local hero to my Facebook friends. And when I hit again on last weeks storm when TV was at "low qpf and rain", I became their official winter met (again thanks to all you). Look at that thing (carefully) !!!! Do you see that? It is touching CANADA and COSTA RICA at the same time!!!! My comment when I posted to Facebook was simply "Here she comes!" And look behind that storm back in the Pac NW. You know what that was, right? That was Snowmageddon II. Such an AWESOME winter last year. Adam Footnote 1: First, it must be remembered that Snowmageddon was an event, not a storm. There were two storms within, more or less, 3 days. I will call them "Snowmageddon I" and "Snowmageddon II". But was "Snowmageddon I" the recordbreaker at BWI? You see, when it comes to measuring snow, the people at BWI, well, they "did it wrong". See http://baltimore.cbs...t-bwi-marshall/ Snowmageddon (the event) apparently also caused this controversy: http://weblogs.maryl..._all_ranke.html Unless I am mistaken, to-date we do not have an "official" calculation for Snowmageddon I at BWI.
