    I would like to see the airshow in Baltimore on Sunday and go to the National Zoo on Saturday. I vote for delaying it two days!

    Just a general thanks to all the red tagged and experienced members analysis of yesterday's storms. Lots of great information and education on severe storms for our area. It is a fun read.

    Okay, glad I wasn't the only one as well thinking this. I was racing it home from Frederick and when I was coming over South Mountain you could see the storms pretty well, but getting close it was much less impressive looking. I think the storms took offense to that though, because they knocked out power for the second time in a week. Luckily this time only took the power company 3.5hrs to restore. Good winds, not too bad lightning, and some nice rain. I also am annoyed that due to the power outage I lost the data from my weather station for the storm. I guess I need to upgrade my station.

    Curious as to why, meteorologically, they would not survive? From my very very novice observations, the ingredients seem to be present to keep fueling them. I would love to know what the pros and the models are seeing that could cause them to die out. Thanks for broadening my knowledge.

    Currently at work in Frederick, yeah that was a nice big thunder.

    If my weather station is accurate, we picked up about a quarter of an inch in the line. Not too bad I guess.

    Sigh….I’m not sure for how long, but it is snowing here southwest of Hagerstown.

    Pretty big difference in the big models (NAM, Euro) and the HRRR. HRRR has it much earlier in the afternoon for the main line of storms. 2 - 5pm for most of the area.

    Wish I had some free time to go get some photos all through the "valley" there. I bet Catoctin looks just as good as well. Perfect postcard snow while still be relatively clear for travel.

    I really think the ground temps hurt a lot of us. I noticed there was a day last week when all the snow-crete melted away and I think right around then is when we finally lost that cold ground temps we had for Jan and early Feb. I think I looked at the MD Mesonet and ground temps were in the high 30's maybe touching 40. If we still had the really cold ground temps we probably would have done better with the marginal temps.

    Made the drive into the office from Hagerstown area to Frederick. Snow amounts definitely picked up around MD65 (the outlets) and increased as you got closer to South Mountain on I70. Surprised there wasn't more of a noticeable increase on South Mountain as it seemed like there was a band that was sitting over it all night, but it was gorgeous looking. Middletown / Myersville valley looks like it had a nice amount on the ground, maybe 6in at least, but hard to tell from the highway. Hit that remaining snow band there, coming down rather nicely still. Maybe that is the *REDACTED* that everyone has been excitedly speaking about. Braddock Heights had some good-looking amounts on the ground as well, but once you were down off there the snow totals fall back down relatively quickly for Frederick city, at least on the south side. Overall highways were fine, and the scenery is amazing.

    The higher elevation for the win on this one.

    We've dropped to very very light snow now here, almost seems like drizzle. We'll see if we get it to pick back up again later.

    I'd much rather they get it than places like NC, or like last year, New Orleans and we get nothing. That hurts on a whole different level.
