Yep... here is the forecast for mid-day Saturday. Forecast Maps : Weather Underground

Sure enough, they are showing it more to the north. These weather guessers are all over the place. I just got an email from the Weather Channel saying 1-3' based on the Great Mills zopcode and the NWS is diiferent as well.

This is one of those cases when the southern part of St. Mary's County will get more than the northern part.

Sounds about right.

Either way, it's gonna be COLD!

Yes, I know that. I posted that because the person that posted that seemed to think (maybe) that that weather report was for most of St. Mary's County when, in fact, it really only addressed St. Mary's City and counties of Virginia. I know where St. Mary's City is located. Sheesh.

Actually the report is for MDZ017, which is the entire county as related to KNHK (Pax River).

Based on the latest models the range for snowfall totals in St Mary's county is 2 inches in Charlotte Hall up to 6 inches south of Lexington Park. That is based on the NGP model.... It is updating right now and this could change... Most of the Storm will move south of St, Mary's county...

No I want more then just 2 inches of snow, I want at least 7 inches of smow.

That's funny, because they have most of Calvert in the 4-8 inch band, yet their warnings don't even mention Calvert and Doug Hill lives in Calvert.
