Blizzard warning posted for the MD/WV mountains.  Upslope conditions look really good for Davis and McHenry.

Too busy at work to chase... but next time there is a Blizzard Warning I'll need to figure something out lol

View from my hubbys “office” today at the top of Wisp. Let’s see what it looks like tomorrow.

Yeah, I don't telework as my clients are always in the office so unfortunately can't chase tomorrow either.

31.5 for a high after a 14 low, both if which are seasonal cold records.

If BWI for the High stays at 32, it will be 2nd coldest high for 12/09 on record.

Edit: Also 2nd Coldest Min Temperature with 14 this AM

Good work

January and Feb 61 and 62 were cold. Probably gotta add +3/4 to equate to now but still below average. Muddled models  be damned, observations and analogs Continue  to show real cold for Jan and definitely not mild for Feb

Yes, but 89 shows up too and illustrates another possible outcome, that the best the season has to offer is actually happening right now and once the pattern inevitably relaxes it either never comes back (1990) or once it does it's only after taking an extended break (2005-06). 

2005 is referenced because it had a similar gangbusters start and then abruptly collapsed on 12.23, not coincidentally exactly what the GFS was depicting today (so, its not without precedent by a longshot in the...pattern analogs).
