January 11 Preliminary Snow Report As It Ended And Ravens Game Weather

January 11 2025

Saturday Morning Report

The snow that arrived overnight performed in the timeline as expected, even the adjustment to end before morning. This did overachieve a little. I made one final call last night before the first flakes to go back to a 1 to 2 inch expectation for most of our region. That worked out well but there may have been some overshooting.

Preliminary Snow Spotter Map

This is the first look. There will be a final update later this morning…

• BWI reported 0.5” at 1 AM. This was not the final total.
• The Highway Department measured 1.5” just outside the airport.
• 3” Bentley Springs in Northern Baltimore County
• 2” across most of Howard County

Note: NWS Did Expand the Winter Weather Advisory at 2:08 AM to account for the snow surpassing 1”…. This was in my final forecast last night.

Here are some additional snow reports from my Facebook Post.

The timing will be mostly overnight. For most areas, the first flakes will move in by midnight and end by sunrise. The timeline may be longer in the Lower Eastern Shore.

Behind this storm, colder winds will settle in, making for a very chilly Ravens Game Saturday night in downtown Baltimore.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky.  There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
