  1. 2.2 near Germantown and having it fall over all those hours makes it a perfect soaker
  2. Just noticed that the Miami Hurricanes are in Yankee Stadium for their bowl game against Rutgers on Dec. 28 -- can we get the coldest possible arctic airmass for that day please? Snow would be fantastic
  3. I know we all wish this was snow but I am pretty happy for the rainfall amounts from that last storm and now this one looking like a good 2-3" or more to put another dent in these departures. I feel like even without ideal set-ups, getting regular storms like this we are going to hit on one or two of them for some good snow
  4. More important that any indices or teleconnections. We're good!
  5. 2018/19 was a nice winter with close to 30" total for me. Sign me up!
  6. I was wondering about that too with much smaller amounts nearby, but maybe a lucky heavy burst? It's just curious though right on the water. Some good measurements in southern MD though, for example a couple inches in LaPlata (hi diatae!) Got 1.5 in Germantown which triples last winter's total MoCo schools delayed so my wife's preschool is closed. That's a gift since she's dealing with a bad cold and does not get paid on sick days
  7. Yeah just a light rain event, never had more than brief moderate rain although the thunder this morning was nice. Rainfall east of the bay looks impressive
  8. A number of years ago I drove to South Mountain Park in a similar setup and went from wet ground to 5" of snow and big cottonball flakes coming down. It was just 33 miles from my house. I was struck by how little snow was OTG close by near Frederick in the snow shadow Rain and 56
  9. Thunder in Germantown! It's a treat for us because thunderstorms are so rare here in summer due to rain shadow -- I might get two or three over a whole season if I'm lucky
  10. We had a nice snow shower at 10:20 am yesterday near Germantown. For a few seconds it was moderate snow
  11. Some light flurries near Germantown
  12. SNOW GAME! Iowa State at Kansas State, 8 PM tonight (Fox). This should be fun to check out: Today: Snow, mainly after 11am. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 30. Total daytime snow accumulation of 3 to 5 inches possible. Tonight: Snow, mainly before midnight. Low around 18. New snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible.
  13. What a shock going from near 80 yesterday to low 40s now. Glad we're getting some rain though
  14. I'd love that! I enjoy the occasional winter storm but do not like the six months of depressing bare trees and dreariness at all Sunny and still 80 at 5 pm
  15. 37 here and frost on some roofs but not on grass. It's funny seeing temps in the low to mid 50s in Garrett County as the heat wave starts to roll in
  16. Yeah that better not happen this winter! Just over 0.5 here
  17. Drippy droppy day as we get ready to get the crockpot going, the beers chilled and an all-day football marathon I found a monarch chrysalis on hanging from our fence and it's hatching this morning. With periods of rain and highs only in the 50s, it's going to be a guest for a few days!
  18. I believe that's right -- October 10, 1979. I was in middle school in Calvert County and everyone was stunned seeing 2-3" of snow on the ground and still-green trees. Can't believe it's been 44 years!
  19. Cloudy and 69 as our mini heat wave comes to an end. We got a surprise light shower last night. Yesterday evening my wife asks should we cover the deck chairs and I'm like nah. Oops
  20. What a gorgeous day and looking forward to a couple more. I'm trying to take in as much as I can of the green trees and flowered gardens knowing that months of dead-looking landscape lurks around the corner My 25-year old board name doesn't match me any more LOL. Give me nine months of summer
  21. Nice sunny morning with a couple hummingbirds still zipping around. The next few days look glorious
  22. I just read their forecast disco -- talked about of 5-7" in some areas with up to 10" possible. Yeesh! Cloud cover looks thin here so hoping for some sun today
  23. I thought this was an interesting blurb at the bottom of this article from a few days ago:
  24. Sunshine in downtown DC! First sun in 5 days and it's my in-office day
  25. About 30 so far with about 10 to go. My wife took a few into her pre-school class for the kiddos to watch them hatch and release them So now my zone has partly sunny tomorrow and Thursday -- yes please! I'm really looking forward to that nice stretch starting Saturday. We need to cram the good weather in before deep fall arrives
