Mount Joy Snowman

Well, I managed to hit the Over, as 3.3” fell here at KMJS. Beautiful scene out there due to the sticky nature of the snow. Current temp of 27 is the low. I’ll melt down and report back later on qpf. A nice little event for most of us!

We are well under way here at KMJS. Temp 33 and dropping. All surfaces lightly frosted. Feeling good about how things are developing. Good luck to all!

Nothing better than an event that starts with low expectations and then ramps up towards game time. Might have to up my O/U to 3”.

Low of 22. I’m setting the Over/Under at 2” for KMJS tonight. I think I go a smidge over. Looking forward to seeing flakes fly tonight. Cheers to everyone!

Only because I haven't seen it posted yet......

Great post and so true. I would emphasize that the first half or three quarters of the pack goes a LOT quicker than the last part due to heavy compaction resulting from lower density. I've seen countless times where that last 4-6" hangs on way longer than you'd expect due to the extremely dense icy nature of the pack. As you alluded to, sleet mixed in helps greatly but also the pack itself creates its own icy center due to the daily melt and refreeze cycle. I know you know all this; I just love this topic ha.

Yes I know, just interjecting myself into someone else’s conversation haha. Just wanted to reiterate how close the two cabins were. All good. Also, some stray flurries flying here. The kids are excited ha.

Low of 22. Liking the potential for Saturday night. December looking like it could be a tale of two halves.

I know we've hashed this out before, but my buddy's place is a little under 4 miles east of the Tioga/Potter border and a little over 3 miles SSE of Gaines, close to 2,000'.

Sure enough, streamers been going right over that area. Multiple periods of whiteout on my buddy's cam. Awesome stuff.

Well, what was your answer?

Beautiful snow scene pic from my buddy's cabin up near the Tioga/Potter line this morning.

Almost forgot to add, .04" QPF. Carry on.

Temp peaked out at 40 around midnight but is now down to 29. Frigid day on tap.

Yeah it seems it switched to sleet as soon as we got on the train but our entire walk was straight snow, even had some mulch beds caving! It’s the little victories ha.

It's snowing in Harrisburg as I get ready to walk to the train, wasn't expecting that this late in the day. Nice!

So sure enough, as soon as I got on the train in Mount Joy this morning some light mix started falling. Can any of my Lancaster peeps confirm that there was a period of very light wintry precip this morning?

Low of 26 and nothing reaching the ground, despite some light snowfall returns and a nearly saturated atmosphere. Also, yesterday morning my low actually dropped to 10. Have a good one, everyone.

Sure does. Can’t remember many years riding the train when I’ve spotted it this widespread this early.

12 when I left the house, may go lower.

Low of 27. What a dry airmass out there.

Low of 29. Taking the kids to see Santa today up in Elizabeth Farms above Brickerville, never been before. Should be a solid winter day. Then a big game between the Packers and Bears. Go Pack!

Low of 26. Chilly days ahead.

Hearing the same, wow would that be best case scenario!

Yes, next season will likely be rough but that was probably always going to be the case. Question about Tony, are you implying that he is the guy suspected of recording the audio? Because I didn't really hear anything damning about him while listening to it. Pat mentioned about the defense falling apart after he got hurt and the AD guys were kind of razzing him about getting offers from other teams, specifically naming Miami, but I didn't hear much beyond that.
