We (North Felton DE) actually got a light dusting this morning,  which was not expected.

For tonight into early tomorrow (outside the WSW/WWA areas) afternoon disco from LWX 

Most hi-res guidance continues to hint at the potential for snow
showers or squalls with some impacts north of I-66/US-50.
Greatest potential in true snow squall warning criteria (winds >
25 mph, VSBY < 1/4 mile, and road temps below freezing) are
favored in the Cumberland to Frederick, MD area. Will continue
to monitor. Further south, a dry boundary layer is in place that
gets drier overnight with FROPA. This is partially observed in
the difference between the composite reflectivity in hi-res
model guidance and the 1km AGL reflectivity. SFC Td depressions
in most hi-res guidance >10F pre-frontal, and in the 15-20F
range with FROPA. What this is getting at is it likely snows
east of the mountains, but may not be true snow squall criteria.
The confidence for accumulation east of the mountains still
remains in question.

Should be a decent cycle for the spine. And good timing in relation to the holiday for the ski areas.

 

8-12”, gimme gimme.
SN- and freezing drizzle here — got a glaze of ice.

I can't believe I missed it by a couple days.  There better still be some snow at the end of January.

I'm jealous. Part of me wanted to head out there for this, especially with the wife and kids out of town. I'm riding solo for a few days.

Snowshoe gonna get pummeled. I really need to start chasing soon if nothing happens.

Latest HRRR is rather emphatic for a decent snow squall tomorrow regionwide.

Snow has started 

[wxdude64]

Currently 34.8/21.4 at 7 pm after a 35.5 high. Not expecting much here, but getting the ground white is the goal, anything measurable is a win.

31.3/18 If anything can make it down to the ground here it will be beautiful. 

Always amazed at the lack of radar while Snowshoe gets bashed:
