All Activity

I was in northern Calvert for the absurd 1994 ice storms. We had three inches of solid glaze ice and the damage was terrible. Whole trees collapsed and some people had no elec or water for days. My parents' tree line took years to look normal again

P-type nail biter.

One of the nicest snows in a long long time. Just a beautiful snow, and an all-snow event to boot! 12 hours straight and still going! None of that snow to sleet to rain crap lol. Measured 5” here in Bon Air.

Very nice ! Is that two 5” snowfalls for you in the past week ? In early December ? Awesome. I’ve had two 5”+ storms total in the past 4 winters on this end of I-81.

Backside . Temp dropped to 34 . More of a very light mix but flakes is a win I guess. lol .

-8F at PWS and MVL before 8pm. Good grief, fukking ice box outside. Normal is 34/17. Today is 12/-8 and falling. -11 departure on the month and growing.

Getting a dusting here now

It’s mostly voodoo in this day and age. Of course that was 12z too and 18z came in flatter.

Early morning high of 35 then down to 32/33 for rest of day . Coldest high of year and my midnight low of 28 likely gets beaten.

From the Ms back home , about 3.75 to 4 ...

That looks wet?

I moved here in 2006 and it’s only snowed once on 12/24 or 12/25 iirc. We had friends from Australia here then and that Christmas Eve is still there favorite day ever.

Looks good here for wednesday

Fake cold warnings tonight . Fakes will be below zero . Reals single digits above 5 to 12 or so

The one on my 2023 GMC i find about 3-4°F to high.

Finally getting the high ratios some models advertised. Returns have been pretty light, but could have easily picked up an extra half inch or a bit more in the past two hours. It's very pretty, fluffy light snow. It has been snowing, albeit fairly lightly at times, for almost 14 hours now.

Car thermometers are always funky, but was showing -1 to -3F once I got 20 miles north of I-95 on the way home, but I we have 2.3F at the house currently which I trust way more.

Grass is coated. That was my baseline expectation for this storm. Accumulating snow before Christmas with the lights out great start

I lived in the CO rockies from 92-99 so I missed that year but I feel like I missed out lol. I was jealous of the Jan 96 storm and we got 150" that month lol. I have problems. I'd be happy to go over the entire list with you sometime. Next time you have a full week off we can meet up and get started and cover at least half of the issues.

Both GEFS runs and the GEPS today seemed to get cold feet on the warmup after 300 hours, the EPS not as much

Wet flakes are a falling. .

Still coming down a little.

13-14 and 14-15 are probably the closest we're going to get to a wall-to-wall cold winter in this climate. Both years had 4 out of 5 months well below average (November and January-March).
