…it’d be 15-20″. But hey, we can fantasize about being in DC where they’ll get 2-2.5 feet or in western Maryland where it might be closer to 3 feet. My 2-year old’s head wouldn’t be visible in snows that deep. Ah, sweet dreams for tonight.
About next week…I think the evolution of the mid-week storm will mean that we miss it again with a forerunning low heading up the Ohio Valley and secondary low development off our coast while we’re too warm. Could be another significant storm for the East Coast, but probably only adding several inches rather than more feet in the snowpacalypse Mid-Atlantic…perhaps better totals a little farther north this time around.
Then a nice shot of cold air is pulled down in this storm’s wake for the eastern Conus. But, the push looks to be so strong that it suppresses the southern jet stream so far south that the storm track for the next Fri/Sat storm will miss us out to sea. That’s what the ‘snowglobe’ says now, but there’s plenty of time for things to change. Longer term indications are that we can expect this wet, colder than normal pattern to continue all the way thru the end of the month! Plenty of chances for more cold rain, I guess…but hopefully warm snow!
