    That sucks...I only need one more mild/moderate event to move up in the snowfall forecast competition. Edit: I just need one more 4-6" region-wide event. I'm now back to tracking.
  2. 87storms
    Yes, but only until there’s another system to track.
  3. 87storms
    Yea, but 2 months until spring > 4 months until spring

    I think November is my least favorite weather month. It starts to get chilly with shorter days, but it's not quite snow season. I factor in psychology into how I grade months and I honestly think January might be one of my favorites simply because it can and does snow, but I also know that spring isn't too far off.

    I had a pretty diesel microburst roll through my spot in Bethesda a week prior to that, too.

    FWIW, I don't think winter is over yet. Still time (albeit not a lot of time) for one more...or at least more to track. We've weaseled into a few events this year, so no reason to think it can't happen again.

    Yea, that should probably be KMLWX. He'll know when it's time. It's probably a little early. Edit: He did create it in December of 2022 for '23, though. Shows what kind of winter we had last year lol.

    Yea, we've had some light mosquito seasons recently, at least around here. I was getting tore up during our rainy years. Not really looking forward to that, but it's the price you pay to play.

    It's been an hour since the last post in this region. Can we fire up the severe weather thread? I'm getting hyped about that.
  10. 87storms
    I'm looking forward to the spring in part because we did pretty well with bringing up the water table this winter. Could be a nice looking spring as a result.
  11. 87storms
    I've got one more storm left in me, but otherwise...yea, I'm ready for Spring.

    March 17, 2014 was legit...we had about 6-8" in Bethesda. March 2018 was about half that, but still a decent event...and was also a reminder that you really need rates during the day to keep up with the sun angle. Once the rates lightened up, it was a wrap.
  13. 87storms
    I haven’t lol. But there’s still a month for a system to show up in the mid-range.
  14. 87storms
    It’s always interesting to see “winter’s over” comments the same day that it snows.
  15. 87storms
    I’ve had a couple strolls this winter through and around Baker. Good stuff. I’m craving a hike through Gambrill (did it post-storm in winter ‘22). The problem is I have no interest driving up Hamburg Rd when it’s slick out.
  16. 87storms
    See you at the 1pm Euro run.

    I've just been too busy the last couple weeks to track this system closely, but models definitely showed upwards of 0.4-0.5" of precip even down to DC. However, I wonder if some of the north trend had to do with temps/boundary setting up further north as opposed to "well, the storm just went further north". I mean, it did, but I get the vibe that it was at least partly due to it "just not being cold enough" here. Chicken vs egg situation, I guess.
  18. 87storms
    That was our seasonal bust, but it does look kinda cool out. May have weaseled into an official 2” here.
  19. 87storms
    This type of system has caused forecast problems since forever lol. Models have improved, but they still struggle at times with the mountains. No complaints, though…it snowed.
  20. 87storms
    Roads have caved. Snowing healthily.
  21. 87storms
    I think I remember that one. It snowed for like 15 minutes and then stopped lol.
  22. 87storms
    And just like that, there’s a coating on cars here. Snowing steadily.
  23. 87storms
    I don’t hate how the radar looks for Frederick right now.
  24. 87storms
    Looks like either flurries or sprinkles here, per my window. Can’t see any snow yet.
  25. 87storms
    I’m pretty sure the HRRR incorporates radar trends into its forecast. It’ll prob tick up again once the radar fills in east of the mountains. It does this sometimes.
