Weather, yes, but precipitation?

After last weekend's predictions of a coastal low and snow for Maryland didn't verify too well (the ground was just too warm, although we did get 3"+ of precipitation!), is it sad that you have to look allll the way out to the 384-hr forecast time to see any hint at frozen precip for Maryland? (As an aside, the 384-hr forecast would be for Christmas eve/day!) The next 10+ days look mostly dry and seasonable. Temperatures in the 20s/30s in the morning and in the 40s/50s during the afternoon. Weather? Yes. But no precipitation. Will be following it.
