CAPE Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Your 5" number on 1/28 is very impressive considering I only received 1" in Dundalk, and relatively speaking, I'm not THAT far from you Yup that was the southern slider that just grazed places west of the bay. Forecast here was for 1-3, but I got into a persistent heavy band. Still my favorite event this winter, due to the cold temps(12 degrees) and the insane ratios. 5 inches of light fluff and it fell heavily with large perfectly formed dendrites.

Hopefully we get more of these seasons to come, heck even next year has a better than average chance for another 50"+ total up your way Now that IAD has broken 50 inches for the year I am a little annoyed that BWI totals are not as representative for the area as they should be. Events like today killed them this year from producing big seasonal totals. If the official measurements for Baltimore were taken in some open park or area in North Baltimore totals would have been 50+. Think about it. BWI is located exactly 10 miles due south of Baltimore. That is the northern equivalent of using the totals of Owings Mills or Timonium for official measurements. One may say the UHI issue is not in play by using BWI so measurements even out, but that's not the case. Often the north/south gradient screws BWI especially in a year like this.

When I was in college at Western Maryland College there was a couple inches of slop in mid to late April 1993. Don't remember the exact day on that one either, but do remember that being the latest I have ever seen snow accumulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah BWI has definitely gotten screwed over this year compared even to parts of the city itself which have likely seen 45-50"+. Being on the opposite side of the gradient so many times made my total look like I lived in a Philly suburb, even though I'm less than 3 miles from the Baltimore beltway. There could be worst spots though, and at least BWI is located right along the fall line rather than a lower place near the bay which would simply make it another DCA . But still, if it were up to me, I'd have the snow measured around Pikesville or Woodlawn rather than the south side of Baltimore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
