I'd be ecstatic if we got 3 inches here in Bmore, let alone 6.

The city is going to suffer from UHI.  I am sitting at 36 and the Inner Harbor is at 41

I am going to be flirting with the R/S line 

36/25

CWG lowered totals for all by an inch. Its honestly like reading two different conversations from this board vs them. They're trending to this being a complete non event unless you get pretty far north. They seem to be relying on the nams for their analysis 

Or past experiences in March with the lack of cold air. 

Everyone will be watching the temps today to see they get over what LWX predicts. 

So the northern crew is hoping that we get this storm cranking. If it does get going on time. Many northern folk are going to be disappointed too.

I'd give up my entire tax refund to see the RGEM verify.

So you are paying the IRS huh

Take it in a heartbeat 

My biggest storm has been 5 inches. But there has been 5 of them. So I am happy. This is just icing on the cake now.

Yeah it's a slight shift but a welcome one for me since it makes a huge difference up my way. The 12z run made me nervous, but this one looks pretty good for just about everyone north of 70.

This is going to be crazy fun watching. It is going to give us ulcers tomorrow. We are going to be watching the temps like a hawk. We are either going to win/lose big. 

UHI is going to be a factor with this storm. I know it was today. But I left Baltimore and 5PM and it was 45 dregees. When I got home it was 39.

I think the Euro has a lot more realistic algorithm in calculating on the snow maps than the other models especially the GEM. But yeah it’s still really close but you would think this is classic elevation dependent for the higher totals 

Up until last night the Euro snow map was blank

Prepare yourself for some painful obs tomorrow.  Whatever medication you take double it.  I assume almost everyone here is on some mood stabilizer or they are raging alcoholics.  Tomorrow is not the day to get clean.  

Doubles as my measuring stick. 

1 or 2 degrees are going to make all the difference.  Will need to watch tomorrow’s high temp.

They will have to adjust their forecast. No way around that.   

Yep. But a lot of boom/bust potential here with this one. One degree will make all the difference.  

LWX is going to be put into a hard situation. That is a razor thin line.

 Agree ...and I'm pulling for Euro . It's the only model getting good qpf up this way. 

Careful what you wish for... that might be what wrecks Sunday-Monday

I know you guys are going to hate me, but I'm actually rooting for the cold rain in Baltimore City tonight. I have plans that I really don't want to get cancelled.  Snow/ice would seriously screw it up, rain would be okay. All in on the Sunday potential lol. 

Thanks for the update

Since @WxUSAF killed our Monday threat with a new thread, maybe this is the one we root to bomb out now. 

But we said the same thing when WXUSAF created this thread and it came back to life... Way too early to give up.

If the ICON is even close to having it right, I don't think @psuhoffman will have any laments about the second wave having its energy robbed from Monday's storm.

But it would most likely be very painful for you and me. I am not worried 5 days out though 

ICON is very close to something nice on the 5th too

Wow it is a very similar outcome on both the GFS and ICON for this far out.

They don't call it the Gofus for nothing

Or maybe it is right... I mean we are still 5-6 days out.

the story of this every winter has been delay. The epic Feb period that we were suppose to have is now delayed to early March.

 

As a guitar player...i love delay. As a weather hobby guy..Naso much
