The 10th-12th period is still out next hope IMO. CMC does not have a well-placed high here, but the EC and CMC continue to have a low moving around the Southeast with some marginal cold not too far away.
Here is some data from Don S for DCA. The season length is the one that seems the most obvious the last few years. Despite the ups and downs in the short terms, the long-term view is a negative slope.
The records books also do not care how much snow you got when MDT gets less than you want them to record. But it is still relevant to the actual weather that happened over a period.
I was disappointed we did not get enough to push us into the 39.8 tie (at MDT). FWIW, a non-scientific comment that CXY is surely way above 40 for their average.
HRRR says MDT will be 33 or 34 at midnight. Combined with their 47 high for today, is that enough to avoid infamy and the #2 all time warm January? LOL I do not feel like doing the math.
MDT has also already surpassed 19/20 but many of its sub towns are still well below their 19/20 totals. Lanco is an obvious one but over here I am less that 4" total right now at 800'. MDT is almost 6". Paltry but better than 19-20 full season total.
No way to know exactly what is reaching the ground but radar as of now looks snowier than just about any model I saw for this time period. 3K was the closest of what I remember.
