Storm leaves plenty of water behind

The snow/sleet/freezing rain/rain storm is moving off the coast now. It turns out to have been quite a wet one. Here are some (unofficial) precipitation readings from around the region, as reported by CoCoRaHS. You can multiply each number by 10 to get a rough estimate of how much snow we would have received, had the atmosphere aloft been colder:

Cockeysville: 1.90 inches

Bel Air:  1.82 inches

Ellicott City:  1.77 inches

Columbia:  1.59 inches

Elkridge:  1.49 inches

Havre de Grace:  1.38 inches

Bowie:  1.25 inches

Pasadena:  1.14 inches

Taneytown:  1.06 inches

Frederick:  0.80 inch
