That's what I was thinking, but spotter reports ended up a tick more than that.  Wish I got my butt out of bed at 1130pm last night to measure.

I measured .7 last night and closest spotter is .8. Not an exciting event for my yard but a very nice dogwalk with snow falling last night and I still get to add to my seasonal totals.

Interesting storm. You have to be far enough north for the cold, but far enough south for the precip and there is very little margin of error. I just happen to be in the swwet spot.

About 5 inches here, been snowing all day. But its all on grassy surfaces. Streets starting to recave as the sun goes down though.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC
516 PM EST Mon Feb 11 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will pass to the northwest tonight and Tuesday.
High pressure will return for the middle portion of the week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
515 PM update: Added the central Virginia Blue Ridge to the
Winter Storm Warning. Also expanded the advisory through the
Baltimore area and into the northwest suburbs of Washington DC.
This is all due to expected freezing rain. In addition, a small
area of 5 to 8 inches of snow and sleet is likely north of
Interstate 70 in northern Maryland (mainly right along the
Pennsylvania border), when including snow from last night and
this morning.

So if you're not bashing them with this post or the other dozen earlier.... what do you call it? Harsh and mean but friendly criticism? Angry but appreciative insults? I'm struggling here...
