RodneyS Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 RIC added 2.0 inches yesterday, IAD added 0.3, and DCA added 0.1. @Chris78needs just another 0.2 at DCA to take the lead; see below updated table. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyS Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 Yesterday IAD added another 0.1 inch of snow with just a trace of precipitation. The situation at BWI is murky because both February 6th and 7th also show a trace of precipitation there, but the snow totals for each day are listed as "MM" -- indicating that data are missing.

aldie 22 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 So if the PD storm only accumulates at IAD and skunks the rest I could potentially climb a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 The BWI snow is missing but somebody found it in Norfolk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 If the GFS is right, almost everyone now in contention for the best forecast will be in the lead for five minutes and hand off to the next person. Only the last two forecasts in the table would have anything left to use up by the end of the storm. If a more conservative outcome is in play, the lead will change to somewhere near my entry. So I feel like I can't lose, either my contest improves, or I get to see the excitement of a major storm unfolding. Win-win. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your moment may be at hand, Roger, because you are the closest entrant to the lead who still has all positive departures. However, you need to watch your back, with @mappyin position to pick up on you if BWI's total exceeds three inches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Dang, was banking on BWI getting into the Western edge of a late-developing storm like they did in March 2018. Yesterday was the chance, but the window just passed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodneyS Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago Snow totals for March 2nd were: BWI 1.0, DCA 0.8, and IAD 0.4. Those numbers eliminate several entrants from winning -- in fact only six (in black) of the top 18 remain in contention. @Chris78maintains a narrow lead over @Cobaltwith @Roger Smiththe highest ranking entrant with all positive departures at the four airports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
