Canaan Mountain Summit - the reporting station for data.canaanmtnsnow.com, hit 96 inches on 01/20/24, which is the most snow to date since 2011.  Pretty impressive, the slopes must be mint out there.

Currently there is 98.3 inches of snow for the 23-24 winter there.  Not bad.

and people's wells! I can attest that the salt on the roads have contaminated my well at my house. 

That too...  didn't realize it went that far.  That's definitely awful, sorry to hear that.

100%.  Terrible for the creeks and ultimately the Chesapeake Bay i would imagine.

Honestly we need a bunch of rain to wash all the salt off the roads.  It is mind blowing how much they dumped with the last couple storms.  Very bad for our vehicles.

Definitely once in a lifetime here swamplands. February was insanity. The blizzard that followed the GOAT storm was epic that morning. I felt like I was in Lake Placid, NY. That was a beautiful and powerful display of winter power. 

Those were epic storms.  My buddy and i drove to Whitetail after the second Feb storm and it was closed.  We then drove the back way to Liberty and got some good runs in.  The way home was wild, crazy west winds and insane drifting and blowing snow on 15 south.

Proof it's over. For the past three years in a row I've found caterpillars of Manduca Rustica in the chaste bush over my driveway. Rustica is a southern species (Gulf Coast) that is known to stray north sometimes in late summer. But they have clearly established a breeding population in Calvert County if I'm finding the caterpillars this regularly. Prior to the past three years I never saw a single individual for the 20yes I've been here.

7.5" here! I had the same totals as my friends in Gaithersburg & Clarksburg before hand, but we really lucked out with the squalls here. Picked up like 1.5" with the squalls, we really lucked out here lmfao

Yeah... seemed like I measured way too late.  Must have been lots of compaction with a 30 degree temp around 2pm.

I didn't clear a spot to measure proper but I am in Rockville and it sure seems like more than 6" but I hadn't seen anyone else report over 6" until your post.  I am going 6.4" but think its still snowing here.

6.5" in G Burg south of 270.  Awesome storm.  Healthy snowpack.

I saw it was snowing there this AM, must have turned to rain for a while, and once it switched back it started to accumulate pretty good.

Beach cams look great.  Seems like its coming down pretty good over there.

All this wet pavement this storm is already a bust

36 hours ago models were showing an inch or two.  Still a bust?

Looks like NW flow has begun over SW Va and the NC and TN Smoky Mtns..

0.5 degree correlation coefficient cleary shows more snow just streaming out of west virginia.

That N-S band from Hagerstown to east of Charlottesville looks money.

There is a big band coming off the Mtns from like Hagerstown/Martinsburg south to Harrisonburg that seems to be building and heading due east..  Very nice.

If we can't get it done this year, then all of the forcing mechanisms and associated indices we've come to trust over the last 30 years will need to be normalized to whatever this new normal is.

There were a lot of people in here seemingly convinced the conditions of this week we've been in would never happen again.  Here we are.

That radar gap is starting to close near Cumberland. Looks good.

Looks stupid good.

Snowing at Indian River Inlet... should be switching over in Bethany soon.

3.8" in Gaithersburg, it slowed up to pixie dust for a bit but now it seems to be ramping back up.

just checked the beach cams, Rehoboth is snowing but nothing sticking yet.  OC and Bethany look like rain rn.

it is - that map jumped the gun

mmm....  Looking great.

Might not want to taint the track record of the second thread.  This one may be a goner.

The last storm ended up running so dry everyone bailed pretty much.  Then it came back.  Still time.
