36/21

Might see one mangled flake and a few sleet pellets before the steady rain gets going with rising temps. We do this so well.

Ahhh.. life in the lowlands. I don't miss it. It's been hovering at 33 here on the Carroll County highlands lol. I'm expecting my location to do well with this one. We'll hang on to ice longer then 2 miles down the hill will.

The brine fleet out in force already 

Here as well. I'm already loving my new climo. Annopoils looks like the typical non event while here is looking like a legit ice storm.

Lowlands ftw.

It was really wild driving around this morning. I had to run and get some last minute ingredients this morning. I left the house at 7:45am and it was 41. I drop about 400' into a lower area down near 70. It was 33 with heavy frost. Pretty interesting living up here. Last week it was raining until a half mile from my house. I came up one last hill and boom. Suddenly it was all snow.

28 here too

Looks like a good chance of hitting 60+ today. High yesterday was 58.

Wtf lol. 10 degrees warmer up here again. 

I was wondering why people in the swamps were reporting mid 20's this morning when it was 35 here. As I dropped down into a little valley this morning it was coved in thick frost. High spot where I am felt almost warm.

28 here this morning

That's odd. Temp dropped here to 33 last night then rose to 35 this morning. Guessing the high moving east is the reason. 

Just fell to 17. Wasn't expecting mid teens tonight. 

Woodstove burns 24/7 here. Just with different intensity depending on temps.

It's still November though, and its way too warm for frozen on those maps you posted. It has looked that way for many runs. I guess "cold around" is subjective. It has looked like a possibility of at least some snow for the western highlands on the backside for awhile now, but it's a different world out there.  

When you say "Western Highlands". Do you mean far Western MD or the Highlands out here in Carroll County? I'm pretty high here lol

Some places got a legit dusting overnight 

 

Same here. Woke up this morning and the deck looked white. It was! Legit trashcan topper. 

26 at 5:30. Up to 29 now.

Good practice for winter.

Chilly this morning up here. 33 at 7:00am.

Perfect track right over Carroll County. Hopefully the beginning of  exciting weather for my second season living on the highlands.

$5.77/gal for heating oil???!

It can stay in the mid 50s all winter long as far as I'm concerned!

Times like now I'm really happy I'm sitting on 8 cords of dry oak. 

Down to 34.2 here for probably the low. Really dry air out here. Hardly any frost or dew this morning. 

Where's the Oct long range thread? Looks cold next week. Not much mention here.

Was wondering if any higher elevations saw any flakes thus morning

I'm thinking the peaks over 3500' on Skyline Drive probably did or are seeing some.

We're getting water-boarded out here.  Where is this easterly flow during winter?  The actual rain is far more impressive than the radar returns.  Upslope FTW.

I feel like the same is going on here on Parrs Ridge. Weak echoes but heavy rain. Chilly out too.

Chimney fire season is upon us. Please check your equipment before firing up for the autumn.

I was inspecting mine a few days ago. I'm planning on 90+% wood usage this season. I've got about 8 cords of seasoned oak ready to torch.

About an inch here. Wind was pretty gusty last night. I've got knocked over sunflowers and small branches and leaves around too. 

This is my first tropical system in Carroll County with elevation. I'm guessing gust should be higher here at 930 feet.

I always knew a lot of you were weird.  Carrot cake is the Superman 4 of cakes

Carrot cake with a fluffy cream cheese icing is some dank s*it. 

No much mention here surprisingly about the storm just sitting over bath water again. Radar just off shore of looks rather ominous imo.

a low of 40 and the house is cold this morning.

40 here but 75 inside. First night with woodstove burning.
