  1. Snowing in Columbia now enough that normies would notice. My PWS at 32.7.
  2. Starting to mist again in Columbia. Don’t hate the radar…just needs to get here.
  3. Temp down to 34. Tough call for schools. Dry slot going to mean the heaviest snow will be as busses start after the 2hr delay…
  4. Asked my parents in Bel Air if it’s snowing yet. They respond “not yet, dusting on the mulch and street covered”
  5. @wxmvpete already reporting 1” of snow northeast of Westminster
  6. Yeah I think it’s still coming. We’ll see how much accumulation happens.
  7. Been awhile since I’ve seen a pivot on radar like this #ifonlyitwascolder
  8. Would have guessed over 1” of rain with how loud it was overnight, but actually only about 0.65”. Temp is 35.6 here in the dryslot.
  9. Ok f it. Hugging the hrrr and going down with the ship. Gonna stop looking at guidance so I’m not disappointed until I wake up in the morning lol
  10. Temp plummeting. 43/41. At this rate should be in the low 20s by morning
  11. Weenies should drive in the westbound lanes on the north side of 495. All rain for eastbound losers.
  12. Putting aside my weenie bun, this is a very good point
  13. I think @mappy is in a real good spot for this a bit farther east
  14. Channeling @Deck Pic 48/43 excited for my snowstorm
  15. Mostly it seems we don’t have a huge 4SD retrograding -NAO anymore. The pattern this upcoming weekend and through the following week still looks “decent/workable/fine”. Some periodic +PNA, continuing -AO…it’s not a bad pattern by any means! Just doesn’t look epic anymore.
  16. Not sure what all your perspectives may be, but one of my takeaways for this entire winter has been that the northern stream has been way more involved than I expected. With a strong Nino I was figuring we’d have some number of big honking southern lows and the only question would be how cold it was and where. But for the most part the southern lows have gotten bullied around and that looks to continue the next 7-14 days with our previously classic Nino pattern.
  17. I think there’s been potential for phasing the entire time with this, but outside of a few random op runs, there hasn’t been much support for it. Mostly guidance has suggested that in some way the northern stream squashes the southern wave. For now seems our best chance for snow is with the northern shortwave alone. Honestly it’s not much different than the second storm of our January week of winter. Can we get another short range favorable trend??
  18. I said this a couple weeks ago I think, but in my experience you can accumulate with temps 33-34 certainly. 35 is possible but really needs to be thumping. 36 and higher is just white rain. Of course rates and temps are linked and higher rates will cool the surface down some.
