Saturday March 2 2019

The third winter weather event in as many days is on the way and the should be the strongest of the bunch. This will be a classic winter storm with a tight line between snow and slicing right through our area. This will be a heavy wet snow in the colder zone, and a chilly rain to the south. There could be 40 miles separating places that get over 4 inches of snow on the north end to nothing on the south end.

Scroll below to see the snow timelines and multiple computer model forecasts below.

I am in the middle of an important family weekend of events. I will try to get some time to post my call for snowfall tonight. If not, I will first thing in the morning. All I can do now is show you what information I see is important to share. Thank you for your understanding and trust in my forecasting.

Storm Animation

All models agree on the set up for this storm. The only question really is where the snow line will set up. At this point I must rely on the models that have been most accurate this winter. See the European and NAM 3 Km Model Simulation Timelines below.

The snow line wonders around Baltimore. If you can see the purple line… the freezing line will be inland. Some areas will get heavy wet snow with temps above 32ºF, cutting down on road stickage.
