The above HPC graphic shows the 10% and 40% probability curves for at least 12 inches of snow for a wide swath of the eastern Mid-Atlantic. Suffice it to say that the probability curves for lesser amounts are almost off the chart. We haven't had a Major (for us, anyway) snowstorm for several winters, so we are due for one but I confess I'm not looking forward to it. Shoveling and the overall messy conditions that follow a snow rank among my least favorite things to do, exacerbated by the fact that today is the first day of meteorological spring. (That other spring date is an astronomical thingie....) I'm ready for thunderstorms, not Arctic blasts!

Mid-Atlantic whopper of a snowstorm?
