It's quite literally in the shape of a middle finger to my entire area, lol.

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse for the Hagerstown area, the ICON says "hold my beer...", lol.

Greencastle, PA, just north of Hagerstown on the Mason-Dixon.

Got a nice changeover back to snow about 2 hours ago up on the M/D. Ended up with 1.75 slushy inches. Not what I was hoping for but snow is snow, especially this early.

North Hagerstown and north/northwest pretty much missed all of the rain yesterday. This area just refuses to rain, lol. Hopefully better luck today and tomorrow, this place is a sandpit.

And it looks to screw the NW crew for the most part (possibly entirely). We could all use some rain drops.

Seeing some people in Hagerstown reporting green lightning this evening. Pretty crazy storm.

Does he have a weather page on there? I appreciated his weather thoughts, even our politics may not line up perfectly, lol.

As we wrap up another winter tracking season, a big thank you to the red taggers and other valued posters on this board. It's great to read and learn--and sometimes face palm--every day. This one was a lot of fun to track, even if the results were pretty subpar for my area. Cheers to a better winter next!

It’s times like these that I fall back on some words of wisdom stormtracker gave me a few years ago. “When in doubt, trust the 48-hour NAM. It’s like a Hanzo sword at that range. Also, bitcoin? Don’t waste your money, it’s a passing fad.”

Maybe “the storm” was the friends and lunatics you met along the way.

I remember when the ICON shifted 200 miles south on Saturday morning and I joked this might be an Atlanta/Savannah storm before it was over. Sometimes I hate myself.

I know we’ve had some very smart people say we all fell for the over-amped solutions in the midrange, but this is much more than that. It’s been a while since we’ve had this sort of fail in the 4-5 day range for the models. We went from a MECS at 5 days out to no storm two days later. This was an all-time fail.

You really can’t get this sort of scientific analysis anywhere else.

I’m just a M/D Guy living in a Southeastern Virginian Guy’s winter. Time to accept it.
