Is there a site that has nice radar, including the dual pol products, other than nws? Since they updated their radar a few years ago it loads so slowly as to be unusable.

 

4:06 am On the northern edge of the Baltimore city / county line, south of Towson

34º with moderate snow / sleet mix.

Grass is mostly covered and It looks like it might start sticking to the paved surfaces soon.

Some said it last night but that’s why I called for 4-8”. Tons of QPF being wasted. No way we get those insane modeled amounts. It’s not even snowing at 35. 

just hoping for something after a string of non snow winters. 

edit: in Chevy Chase in case my mobile doesn’t say. 

Also meant to frame this in the context of WPC forecasting the changeover to take place rapidly, between 1:00-2:00 AM. We’ve already seen hours of moderate/heavy rain here. 

Climo wins every time if you’re looking at the right context.

As far as wasted QPF before the changeover is concerned…. We actually did alright in that department. Saw very minimal qpf in central md and the all snow line is knocking on our door step. Radar is insanely juicy to the S/SW. The issue for us is the speed of the storm. It’ll be a very quick hitter
