This post made me look closely out the window here in Hagerstown. I've seen a few mangled flakes, but this air is super dry this morning so it looks like mostly virga. Maybe those slightly better returns out west of me are doing a little better?
Measured 6.5 inches here but we are starting to hear pingers with rates dropping. Would be nice to get back to snow, so we’ll see. Anything less than 8 inches is a bust at this point. Still only 14.4F.
My bar on this thing has always been 10 inches of snow in our neck of the woods. If the NAM is right, this has been quite a bust given what we’ve tracked all week.
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.
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.”
