  1. While Skyline Drive unfortunately closed before I could reach it I instead explored the backcountry and foothills on my way to Whiteoak Canyon trailhead. Managed to get some beautiful sun as it set across the country which was an unexpected but welcome surprise.
  2. Agree with this take. Phasing both streams is how we get back to Jan 25th but now without the insane cold to keep us from raining. Instead, allowing the first NS to go by gives us 1. a chance for a light event 2. cold air. Then whatever happens out west happens.
  3. Heavy snow with fluffy dendrites outside cvill
  4. Man that is a sad amount of frozen frozen for mid February. Either way it does work out for us
  5. Checked the VDOT cams and its snowing lightly at the route 33 Shenandoah pass. Will be out there around 1:30
  6. Plan to hike Shenandoah on my way home to nova around midday. Hopefully have some luck at 3000 ft
  7. Yeah I didn’t see anything on my walk/run to class
  8. You should send him a strongly worded pm to let him know your thoughts
  9. We are gaining almost 20 minutes of daylight a week! Super exciting to see it still light out after 6pm. While I love the low sun angle within the 10 or 15 days of the solstice for the unique lighting beyond then I like it to be light outside.
  10. Anyone else got some argumentative opinions to voice? I'm down to start and say that this forum is way nicer in the spring and summer.
  11. This setup reminds me a good bit of our last storm (not the NC blizzard). While I've been very vocal about how that specific storm was extremely frustrating I'd take the setup time and time again as we had everything going for it on the large scale!
  12. The other 6-8 spot is right over Cranberry wilderness WV which is home to one of the nicest hikes I’ve been on. Highly recommended a trip out there
  13. What has impressed me about this recent cold/storm combination is how long one storm's snowfall has remained on the ground. Can't remember the last time one storm with no help lasted over a week. Even last year we had a couple events that built up the snow pack to last long.
  14. Switched to light snow as I went from the JPJ lowlands to my dorm back at 600ft plus. Super elevation dependent or just convenient timing who knows.
  15. Game ended and walked out into (would you believe it) more light rain. I think it’s snowing up on Shenandoah though!
  16. Imagine the shellacking we’d be in for if I started this thread like our other weak storms in December.
  17. Am now inside for the basketball game hopefully by the time it ends it’ll be snowing
  18. WRONG it is a BOOM in Charlottesville. Storm of the winter!!! (It started raining lightly)
  19. As we all know the NAM is infallible and so I am looking forward to my four inches of coastal low induced snowfall.
  20. Returns already overhead and the temperature is still over 45 degrees out. Might be a bit of a rainy start.
