looks like the southern stream gets involved again by mid-month on both the gfs and canadian. guess we need to see how dominant the northern stream is during that timeframe.
5.5" confirmed for the average here. measured in about 10 different spots. it's also cold...damn near got frostbite in the process. might take a lunchtime trip to downtown frederick to see how things look.
snagged between 5.5-6" here (measured on my jeep's hood). after my meeting (man's gotta eat) i'll probably take a neighborhood stroll and take a few more measurements.
I’m eyeing it lol. Visibility has lowered to the west. Flake size is better than I expected…those who referenced the dendritic growth got that one right.
Barely staying in the light snow band here but looks like better reflectivity pushing east. Hoping it makes it over the ridges and then I think it’ll be game on.
still light here, but more of a steady light now and sticking to the grass. road is still wet, though. i think that changes once the rates pick up a bit.
Hagerstown is dominating so far. I did just drive through gambrill out of curiosity and saw some flakes near the top (1500’) before the band shifted further nw. Will check back in a few hrs. Expecting the bands to close in by then.
that one is still top 3 for me. i might have to put 2016 above it because it was pure snow start to finish, but those are top 2. 3rd might be feb '10 and 4th pd2. too young for '83, but i'm sure that would make top 5.
i may be wrong then. i thought this was a late evening arrival, though i know the waa is surging ahead to the west, so maybe that's the case for hagerstown/higher elevations.
