Not much here at all on the east side of Baltimore County...under a half inch. If you werent up between 4am-6am you didnt see any snow anyway, it was sleet/rain by 7am.  A lot left to be desired here in my book. Schools closed though which I think is pretty funny but hey we know how they operate in this sue happy world

I would imagine the Leesburg number would be adjusted, when I woke up at 5am it was really just starting to snow moderately and did so until about 6am ish. I would guess 1 to 1.5" would be more accurate after that burst.

BWI and IAD numbers seem paltry.  They both adjusted up last week, so maybe they will again.

Does seem a tad low but for here a 5:15am measurement definitely missed a good bit of accumulating snow before the sleet/rain hit. All good though it's pretty out

BWI is probably a tad low but I'm in Elkridge and not far from the airport and was disappointed. Probably only had .3 or .4 or something like that. I don't know where those spotters are in Elkridge, but the one spotter always seems really high on all of his/her snow amounts. Saw they reported an inch this morning. Would love to know what part of Elkridge that spotter is in. Maybe just a super slant-sticker.  :lol:

You mean 2 W Elkridge?? That’s me...:whistle:

At least sometimes, my neighbor also gets reported as 2 W Elkridge.  Definitely looks like the fall line was a drop off as usual. I’m about to drive to BWI, so will be interesting to see the falloff.

Pileated Woodpecker.  Closest thing IMO to the extinct Ivory-Billed Woodpecker.  Image doesn't show just how large this bird is.

Nice.

We have quite a few of them in my neighborhood - they really are huge. I love watching them go from tree to tree and bang the hell out of them. Loud buggers, too.

You're not gonna see anything at BWI...i bet it has since sublimated/melted like here in east Balt County

@WxUSAF @osfan24 It was decent earlier. Maybe close to inch if I super slant stick it? ;)

Definitely more than I got. You and WxUSAF must live really far north and west in Elkridge or something. I'm on the eastern side and maybe even a bit south. I thought from WxUSAF's avatar that he was in Columbia.
