I want to add that I think this COULD impact part of the subforum in some way. By no means am I writing it off and will follow intently leading into anything down the road.

I mentioned a few days ago how that SS wave was juiced and just needed some interaction with the NS vorticity maxima rotating into the CONUS. Timing of these is everything. It’s very hard to get these right for our prospects. You need the stars to align enough to get some impacts and perfectly to get the upper echelon results. I still feel in the margins this misses, but it’ll be tight in the end. I do like seeing the guidance ease its way back into a favorable pattern in February. This is Niño climo, so hopefully it’s a sign of things to come. I certainly haven’t thrown in the towel.

Thoughts on the Ravens game… Ravens game plan heading into the game was incorrect and definitely got this team off to a sluggish start. They played a mix of man and intermediate zone and allowed the Chiefs to find soft spots in the middle of the field, as well as allowing distance off coverage so short 4-5 yard gains were easy to come by. Good adjustment by them at halftime where they disguised blitzes and played strict man to prevent soft spots from being exposed. Problem was their first half was terrible and they caused their own issue of being on the field for way too long. That was killer, but self inflicted. Offense was a different story and one that has rang true for too many seasons, even going all the way back to the mid-2000s…cost us the game the entire time. Play calling was bad. They were bringing blitzes from multiple packages and played two deep safety for a good chunk of the game. This SHOULD be a chance to emphasize crossing patterns, screens, and slant routes…but they just hardly ever did that. They kept running intermediate and deep and it was like the Texans first half all over again. Don’t get me started on rushing the ball 8 times with RBs. That’s coaching and it’s one of the things I hate about Harbaugh and why I think we need a change. It’s inexcusable. Lamar I thought played an okay game. Made some huge throws and if it wasn’t for his playmaking ability, we wouldn’t have scored anything. The offensive line was battered at times by Chris Jones, and off the edge early on until the DE went out and that gave Lamar some more breathing room. Zay taunt and fumble is full on rookie coming out at the very worst time. Biggest question marks will be McDonald coming back and signing Queen or Matabeuke. This is a team game. They lost this as a team, but a lot of the blame goes to coaching and horrible pre-game planning and terrible offensive playcalling for 2/3 of the game. We can certainly make it back. Lamar will be fine and hungry as ever. Yes, he made some mistakes, but he was the main reason we had ANY chance in this game. If Zay scores a TD, I guarentee you this conversation isn’t happening. Chiefs have been here before and it showed. They know how to handle the pressure and they have the best playcallers and game planners in history (Reid and Spags).

Defense needs MAJOR adjustments as well. The zone coverage game plan is one of the worst things we could've ever done. Not be out-done by the worst thing in letting Kelce go one on one with people. You have to bracket him. That's how New England beat them multiple times in the past. It was truly a horrible game plan out the gate and we lost our composure. KC knows how to win and they get under teams skin. You just have to let it go.

If this O-line keeps playing like it is, Clorox

That's Andy Reid for you

1.35" for the storm total Nice soaker to keep the wet conditions rolling.

That southern stream wave is juiced. Any appreciable phasing would make this a significant event somewhere east of the Appalachian front. Going to be a tight case, but the bigger events are always about timing. CMC shows a path to victory. GFS still disconnected, but that southern wave is a beast.

It's disgusting out. I woke up in Biloxi, MD

40F at my place, 56F near Mt Airy, 45-50F along 32, and a general upper 40s in the beltway. That higher elevation stretch on 70 was wild

40° at my place this morning. Let’s see how high we can climb on my commute out of the valley. Stay tuned.

It's very worth adding to your arsenal. It's one of my main tabs even while I'm on shift. A great tool

Low of 25 this morning. Snowpack holding tough around 4-5", but expecting that to take a beating the next few days. There will not be much left after Friday.

High hit 37° after a low of 12°. I think the craziest thing is the microclimate effect of the neighborhoods across from me on Monocacy in a bowl/valley. Readings ranged from 4° to 6° but as soon as you go up the hill to my place, it “only” got down to 12°. My high was 2-3° cooler however, so welcome to science 101: Density is Cool

I know people that work at LWX and I’m going to make sure they see this response. It is very important we gain the most accurate information possible, and I have reason to believe that some of these measurements are from snow depth and not storm total based on what is shown on this map. In Texas, we used TXDot for measurements away from populated areas because we didn’t have much of a choice. With such a density of reports available in areas around Central MD, this shouldn’t be the primary method of measurement and should very well be a secondary need if no data is available. That’s my 2 cents on the matter.

Has to be. Otherwise, very off. Sabillasville is gorgeous btw.

Hold up. That map has FDK at over 6” with that storm. What the hell am I missing? There is no damn way I got that much snow. The radar even indicated we missed the best banding. I call significant BS on that. Unless this is both storms combined…then it would be low-balling. I’m beyond confused right now

Finally recovered from that Ravens W. What a second half performance and the defense was lights out the entire game. I’m so stoked for next week.

Beautiful winter day. 6” of snow otg and temp only got to 25°. Currently 19°. Just amazing

That checks out. Thanks for the info. I’ll see if I can get an estimate for that date at some point. I’ll just add a note that it was estimate by someone else and not by me. Puts me closer to that 10” reading for FDK. Thanks!

Considering the map @Terpeastjust shared, that’s probably where my difference is. I only have 9.2” but the NOHRSC has 10” over Frederick. I’m going to keep my total, but I do wonder what fell that day lol

I was at my folks on the shore, so I don’t have any record of it and can’t verify. I’d imagine we got something, but I don’t think it was much.

Low of 14 in my neck of the woods

12/19 - T 1/6 - 0.75" 1/15-16 - 4.7” 1/19 - 3.75” Total - 9.2” 5N Frederick, MD

Technically yes, but the very northern edge before you exit. Wormans Mill area off Monocacy. It’s beautiful in this area.
