1000% agree with this post. Especially at these leads.

Sadly, what better do we have to do haha. Trust me, if the kids were home I'd rather that option. That being said, we'd like your prediction.

Any GFS predictions? Tempted to say it takes the low over HGR but the mid range old school SE bias on 18z could be in effect.

I suspect you wouldn't be laughing though. Nor would anyone north of VA.

What year was that? The first year we started looking at it?

I hope everyone who has been around these boards or the models for any decent amount of time knows even if this ends in triumph, there will almost certainly be drama and temporary heartbreak between now and that time.

Yea its crazy what a few hours can make you miss. I'd probably put my schedule as one of those bathroom breaks for a deuce = AmWx forums. You don't fit it into your day, but its one of those guarantees in life that makes visiting the forums a sure thing. Easy to pull up safari on the iPhone and go to the bookmarks. I actually think of this place as the opposite, which is what makes Vice's post/posts so annoying. If all of us have the time to get on here and enjoy our hobby, talk about the weather, obsess about the model runs, etc, then we probably have a pretty good life going for ourselves. It's never meant to be made personal, but some just do it. I for one know I'm doing just fine, whether I spend 2 or 4 hours on here in a day. If we got a big dog bearing down on us, this is where I am. Nothing like the excitement of sharing a good one come in with people we've talked with online for the last decade +

6 & 6.5" in Carroll Valley (wind is making any consistent # impossible)

Yea Chris over there has 3", and barely over 2" so far here in Carroll Valley.

Will try to post in both forums. I am a longtime (10+ year posted in the MidAtl threads), but will adjust this winter haha.

Probably going to be 4-8” for those folks HGR-Smithsburg-Gettysburg

Can confirm, almost 2” here in Carroll Valley.

Based on what I see from some of the radar obs, surface truth, and mesoanalysis, this one could actually give Some GFS totals once the banding gets going.

Can confirm pouring snow in Carroll Valley, definitely qualifies as S+. Visibility somewhere between 1/4 and 1/8th, closer to 1/8th.

It’s coming down hard near Carroll Valley now, borderline S+ driving up from Emmittsburg.

As do I, liking 3-5, but my orographics could put some 6” totals up here.

Nothing like that following up one of the famous pessimists EJ saying this thing is gonna boom.

Yeah I’m right off Jacks Mountain. I can’t imagine it’s pleasant to be honest… will be the first shovel-able we hope. But hoping the location will benefit us like it did for them last year (the storm where they got 17 and in Westminster I got 7)

I need to get it started.

Nothing like a battle down the very end between our models. I don’t hate the radar to our SW. Hoping to get the Carroll Valley/South Mountain enhancement going on this one, squeeze out optimal snow growth too.

What forum? Nice map!

Ahh, that looks good. Wish Liberty didn't get bought by Vail and have obscene COVID rules, their bar wouldn't be bad. Though the mountain opens 9am tomorrow again lol.

No Yoda, that just means they decided to use 11 7/8 I guess lol

True, I need to get one of those rulers that measures in tenths of an inch

Just not a huge fan of how they do their forecast maps. I like reading their discussions, I usually just skip over the map.
