87storms

Warm/wet, cold/dry was definitely what occurred with the last two systems imby, that's for sure.

I tend to agree. The 12/2 system was another flag. It was literally in the 20s the evening that precip was set to arrive lol. I also think this area is more prone to drought now especially if northern stream systems are going to be further north. At a certain point, it becomes less of a trend and more of a question of whether this is the new base state. Time will tell. It's early in the season, but so far it's a lot of the same.

Nah, he would also have to shoot on a double rimmed hoop with no net. Might still make it, though.

One benefit to living in one of the worst snowfall areas in the region is that I was able to test my new bike (Trek FX2). Needed something different for pavement. Chilly out, but not that cold.

Looks like the southern stream is going dormant again this week. Maybe we can weasel our way into a clipper/screamer/mauler later in the week with that next shot of arctic air.

My cousin at WVU said they got 4", though he's also not the type that will be going out to measure it lol. Surprised at some of the totals south of DC...fruitful event, but thought Fredericksburg was gonna end up with 5-6" based on how well radar looked earlier.

So when is the next dusting for Frederick?

Looks like we’re gonna tap out at a coating here, which quite honestly is more than I expected given the dry air in place. Fairly productive week in the precip department.

Aggressive dusting here accumulating on every surface.

Light dusting has made its way to Frederick.

We will take our La Niña 0.01 precip in northern md and we will like it.

This one is a next’er up here. Radar looks good for RT 50 south.

One thing is for sure, it's going to snow...not rain or sleet...but snow. Because it's legitimately cold out. Mazel tov to those further south. I will enjoy my veiled sunshine here in Frederick while I count the crystals sporadically scattered across the hoods of cars. https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/conus_band.php?sat=G19&band=GEOCOLOR&length=24

The good stuff is so far south that I almost don’t even care lol. I think winter is showing hints that we’re gonna be dealing with another uphill battle to get a sizable snowstorm here.

Speaking of Denver, they did pretty well with the system that’s going to scrape us. Looks like 6” totals in the metro area.
