Annual tradition of imagining @stormtracker play by play delivered in Dr. King's voice eta - well posts, bc I guess annual is a stretch for pbp being needed don't come at me stats weenies

1/16 - 0.25" which is an estimate. I had too much going on to measure but had a coating in the afternoon then another more substantial coating in the eve, had to clear the car

Only amounted to a dusting here...but nice to see snow falling for several hours.

This. Hours of light snow/intermittent flizzards.

Flurries

Low of 15.

sunset alert

12/24 - T 1/3 - T 1/6 - 4.75" 1/11 - 1.25" Total - 6"

Relatable. 18z GFS - take and run.

My post above (in response to a...what are north crew thoughts/stages of grief lol) worked out pretty well in the end. Finished with 4.75", slightly higher than other sparse reports, but not inflated, one decent evening band was a help. Going to enjoy the snowcover and hope for a refresher

Same

I cracked 4" earlier, just. Measured 4pm-ish, overall depth still 3.5" but addl random 0.5" where I'd cleared.

there it is, the Westminster Deathband

I wish I'd managed to get another photo from my walk to post....this dude rode by on an electric motorbike in a FULL SANTA SUIT. Knew it had to be a snow weenie. Exchanged the snow weenie wave.

3.5" last I checked.

All of "northern MD" is mountainous. A mini Switzerland. "Northern MD" extends eastward to just past 1-83 beyond which you are in some other state. DE I assume. (sarcasm..view from the south) enjoy the snow everyone. Heading out for a stroll!

Measured 3" after ~6 hours and cleared. Beautiful out! not stressing about totals.

2.5" so far

Started around 3:30 here. Instant powder sugar coating.

NE MD PUMMELED

Oh man. You should try to get into reading AFDs, they are so educational, and can be such fun reading. My OG gateway drug to more serious weenie-dom. I scroll past many things, worse things, but as an AFD aficionado, I cannot let that stand!
