I started several varieties of peppers at the beginning of this month. Like you, I'm thinking of keeping at least some of them in pots. Also started tomatoes, and some flowers from seed. Have herbs, lettuces and onions ready to go in the ground in a few weeks. Peas right behind those. Hope we get some rain this year for a change, and not all at once.

Berkeley County, WV schools just announced a two-hour delay for tomorrow. Not because of the half-inch of snow we got today that didn't stick to any pavement, but because of an 8:00 p.m. update they received from NWS suggesting the possibility of a "flash freeze."

Plant Maps has the average last frost date for your area between April 21-30. I never feel safe putting peppers in the ground before May 15.

Winds have picked up out of the northwest and some flurries have redeveloped. My son is at a friend's house 3 miles east of here and says he has heavy snow there. That's a pretty close miss.

Pretty sure after today, I will have the lowest total in our subforum. 12/2 - 0.7” 12/14- 0.4” 1/1 - 0.3” 1/18- 0.1” 1/25- 8.5" 2/6- 0.1" 2/7- 0.2" 2/22- 0.7" total- 11.0"

Snow has ended here, just as the WSW goes into effect.. barring any back building, will finish with less than an inch.

Just did a six-hour sweep of the board. 0.7" which matches my second largest snowfall of the season.

Surprised by the temps there. I've been under a persistent band all morning, and I guess that's how I've been able to stay at 33 degrees at 500'

Starting to see better pressure falls off of the coast.

10 hours ago, models had it parked over me. Now its over Frederick, 40 miles east. Lots of time to go to see how that feature comes together.

Steady snow all morning here. 0.4" from 0.14" of liquid. 33/32

After a brief lull, snow is picking up again. Measured 0.3" from that last band. 34/33

Rates are winning right now. All non-paved surfaces are covered. Down to 34°.

Pouring huge flakes now, but melting on contact at 35 degrees. Guess its gonna be that kind of day here.

Light rain has flipped to light snow now. Down a degree to 36.
