  1. If it was January or February, we’d be looking at 10s for highs and lows near 0 probably, even without snowcover. I’ll be quite impressed if we get a sub-freezing high out of the first week of December. Very impressed if DCA manages that, but I’d bet against it.
  2. Cold and dry is always a risk. But in early December we need some pretty anomalous cold to have a shot at widespread snow. Daily avg temp is still in the 40-43F range the first week of the month. If 1989 is a good analog to this upcoming period, there should be storms. Just hope we have better luck this time.
  3. All 3 ensembles keep the PNA/EPO/WPO ridging going strong at D15. Cross polar flow the whole time.
  4. 1989 is not remembered fondly around here because we missed some big storms north and south. But there was some snow and it was damn cold. Could have been pretty epic with subtle changes. Let’s just hope we don’t get January-February 1990…
  5. In my yard, all the accumulation was between 1030 and 1115. As soon as it lightened up after that, it melted immediately. The snow before 1030 helped cool the surface and the air temp enough. So I was down to 33-33.5 or so when it accumulated.
  6. Hope you northern folks can tack on some more as the sun sets! Our winter depends on it!
  7. GGEM has snow inbound at D10 with super-Barney (-30F and colder) moving into the northern Plains
  8. Glad I measured when I did. Heaviest precipitation now focused west of me it seems.
  9. Temp down to 33.4 and got a real dusting!! 0.1”+ on the snowboard!
  10. Spotter reports coming in. 0.5" in Ellicott City is an encouraging one for me...
  11. Fat thicc flakes. Temp down to 35.6. Need to get under 35 and near 34 to have a chance of something accumulating probably.
  12. Ravens training facility near Randallstown probably has something measurable if there was a prompt spotter measuring...
  13. Down to freezing, nice! Looks like you're already on the board for something measurable (although I know you only measure if it's more than like 4" or something...)
  14. Snow in Ellicott City along Rt 40 per Mrs. WxUSAF. Should be here soon.
  15. When it was more of a Black Friday threat, we had more time to get a cold airmass in place. Now it’s only like 24-36 hours behind the weak cold front next Tuesday.
