I don't know anything about DC TV Weathercasters, but how many are actually real meteorologists with a degree in Atmospheric Science or Meteorology? And no, an AMS seal means nothing.

Bob Ryan and Doug Hill both have masters in Atmospheric Science. Sue Palka (NWA). Topper Shutt, I dont know. Doug Kammerer (NWA).

Edit: Doug Hill (NWA)

Broadcasters are more about entertainment and personality than education.

Unfortunately he is right. Nobody cares about paying someone more for an education. The public doesn't care or notice the difference anyways--at least the general public. All about ratings--and typically personality is more important to joe blow.

21z SREF plume info:

Baltimore:

4 members stay rain the whole time. Mean rain .52", mean snow .29" (slightly less than all the others today, but not by a lot). Max snow, .78", Changeover definitely looks a bit earlier than 15z and much earlier than 9z SREFs. 19-20z on Wednesday or so on average.

DC and Sterling not available yet.

Sort of weird. It looked great on the maps. Are the SREFs really reliable for this sort of detail and scenario?
