Snowshoe = 19 and moderate rain....yes, rain.  Winds gusting in the 20's.  Never had rain with temps this low.

That's crazy.  I was in New Jersey in the great ice storm of 1994 and saw 18 degrees and mod frz rain.  Never had seen such a low temp before with liquid rain falling.

Yea...Nams bumbed north at h5 so "front end" will have to do lol 

The 500s haven't really looked good to me for the back-end for the last day of runs even though some models were spitting out a potential quick thump. Have been thinking it was pretty much fools gold (or would that be fool's snow?).

I was going to post about that before. I remember it somewhat well. In Allentown PA we were 14 degrees when it started to rain. The WAA was pretty strong at all levels though, and it didn't take but about a few hours to get above freezing at the surface.

Baltimore City just announced they are opening on time. Hope they made the right call, because it's a disaster in this city when they're wrong. 

It might be.

6 am update:

DCA 38

BWI 35

IAD 34 with ice pellets

I'm fairness, flooding is a concern.

NWS must've meant a FFW instead of a WSW.

I don’t doubt their reasons it is still surprising as FCPS has always done a wait and see approach. Usually a 2 hr delay with a re-evaualation. My HS kid just got up and I told her no school but to still feed the cats. My MS kid was like why no school, her sister told her snow. She replied what snow?

Yeah I don't necessarily think they're wrong. I was surprised so many systems canceled outright. 

 

The city is just so unable to handle winter weather that it's going to miserable for a lot of people if we do get real weather. 

 

The crowd of people replying to the BCPSS Twitter threatening lawsuits always amuses me.
