  1. Can confirm. My southern MD family has been crushing my Germantown snowfall totals for a few years, including last year with about 10" for me and almost 25" for them. Now we just moved here and I've got around an inch today and snowing good.
  2. Moderate snow and starting to stick on grass a few miles south of Prince Frederick. Can't believe it was 85 yesterday!
  3. Lots of 60s but USNA in Annapolis at 46! Oooooh that Bay water this time of year Please let the forecast for Mon-Wed be right!
  4. 40s in the far southeast corner of MD and low 70s in far western Garrett County
  5. A couple days ago, it looked like tomorrow was gonna be low 70s. Now looking at 50 and dreary
  6. Moderate snow and 32 with a half inch on grass and decks near Germantown, streets just wet. I wish this came in at sunrise this morning when it was 29. We got up to 37 before the first flakes.
  7. I'd love for us to get lucky with this chance, then have a March at like 10F above normal.
  8. Agreed. If that Jan. 25 thing was half the QPF but all snow, it would have been 10 times better IMO
  9. Chunks of ice falling off trees is like a hailstorm out there!
  10. The last 10 years or so make you wonder if there's been a change where good snows are south and east from coastal scrapers or way north and west, leaving a hole in the central part of the region. When I grew up east of DC, the N&W burbs were king. I moved to Germantown in '94 and we cashed in a lot in the 90s and 2000s. A good example was Dec. 5, 2003, when we got 8" right at freezing and DC was all rain. That would be rain here now. The N&W burbs have lost their edge.
  11. I'm estimating about 5" near Germantown, which correlates with reports from around me. Decent storm with grass fully covered and trees coated. I wish so many others in the area didn't get left out
  12. Eyeballing 4" in Germantown with a light snowshower adding to how pretty it looks with the trees coated.
  13. We had an 8" snow in Germantown on Dec. 5, 2003 with temps right at freezing, and when I got off the MARC in DC it was all rain. That same storm today would be rain in Germantown. Anywho, mod snow with 2" just NE of Germantown and 32 degrees
  14. Finally looks wintry out with roofs and grass coated and mod snow. Enjoying a smoked whiskey while watching
  15. Mom has heavy snow with huge cotton balls a few miles south of Dunkirk. Still just a light rain/snow mix in Germantown, hoping to win the IVT lottery later
  16. That reminds me of (I think) 2006 where we had off and on snizzle all day and were thinking bust, then rates picked up right at sunset and we got heavy, wet snow for several hours. Hoping for that tonight!
  17. After a lull got a few flakes again that started falling right when that goal went through. Stuck at 37
  18. Snow mixing in near Germantown despite light precip intensity. Good sign? Temp 37
  19. I drove to the Catoctins once in a marginal event where Germantown only had a slushy coating and I saw 6" and cotton ball sized flakes there. I only drove 33 miles. Can't wait to hear your obs Light rain, 37
  20. It looks more like the traditional better N&W of the Fall Line due to quicker changeover. Light rain and 37
  21. LOL if I have to chase to Calvert for this before even moving into the new house. Man, the S/E suburbs lately!
  22. I was in DC and rode the MARC home at the start of that -- it was snow despite upper 30s at the surface. No rain even in DC because the upper levels were so good. It seemed to snow for hours before even starting to stick though, and the first 3-4 inches that did stick were mashed potatoes
  23. This winter reminds me of 1977 when I was an elementary school kid. Long stretch of deep cold and ice-encrusted snow cover, but rather poor on the total snowfall amount.
  24. I have to call it disappointing with only about 10 inches of snow total despite so much cold. It could have been so much better if not for that damn warm nose on Jan 25. Now on seven straight winters of way below normal snow and 11 years since a big (12-inch plus) storm. Terrible.
  25. My nephew lives in Roseville, to the NE of Sacramento. One time he and his wife drove a couple hours to Tahoe to see 4-5 feet of snow on the ground, then drove home to 50s and sun. Man, CA makes me jealous
