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.

At minimum, should at least be first flakes of the season for dc/annapolis. It would be pretty lame to go much longer not getting a trace in this pattern. We’re still at goose eggs at each airport. In Frederick, we already had a couple of coatings by mid-December…confirmed via camera roll.

They’re fun to bike and hike, though.

12k is noticeably drier this run for dc. This storm is fizzling on approach.

That’s the one that keeps me interested lol

UMD math grad here…some of those early courses were straight up weed out classes. I think I spent 20 hrs a week in cmsc106 lol. Kinda wish I kept all my textbooks to check out from time to time. Number theory was cool.

Didn’t have to take that in undergrad, but I did scrape by taking 3 semesters of physics. Those were not ones you want to fall behind on.
