Paging WxKevin: Friday/Saturday snowstorm

[Beerracuda]

Hey Kevin, how bout some insight on what's coming Friday and Saturday. So far, I've been hearing about the potential of over 20 inches of snow, with a storm very similar to the December 19th storm.

The guy on 11 says it could be snow, then mixed sleet and rain, then back to snow, which would cut down on totals but be miserable anyway. I hope he is wrong. I'd rather just the snow if it will make Saturday and sunday a shut in period.

I think 20+ inches are the outside models, and apply more to our west from Frederickish to Cumberland. I think most models indicate that Baltimore is slightly east of the projected heaviest bands and we should be looking at about a foot of snow.

Weather forecast for this weekend for the Baltimore area:
Snow beginning late Friday morning, increasing in intensity as the day wears on. Snow heavy Friday night (1 inch per hour) and into Saturday morning. Storm will exit Saturday evening. On Saturday temperatures will fall and winds will increase. Snow accumulations in the Baltimore area will range from 24-30 inches. Some models predict record snowfall for the area.

Another major storm will hit the Mid-Atlantic next Tuesday into Wednesday.

Okay, I just read an updated national weather update that said 16 to 24 inches. Who is predicting 24 to 30?
