  5. In a cabin in Keysers Ridge/Grantsville area (2830’ at cabin) 10mi NE of Accident. 10:30pm update, maybe last today. Temp down from 36 to 33 in about last 30 mins. Gusty winds are accompanied by heavier snow bursts. Solidly snowing now. Grantsville had 15” early last week. There is still a solid and compacted 3-4” everywhere. No green grass in sight. No melting today.
  6. We’d 10pm Update: snow has transitioned to what I’d call a decent wet S to S+, particularly during the increasing wind gusts when it seems like sheets of snow. No sticking yet as still a wet snow but quickly seeing more white. Surprisingly outside cabin thermometer still says 35 or 36 here near the ridge top but the temp is gonna crash soon.
  7. In a cabin in Keysers Ridge/Grantsville area (2830’ at cabin) 10mi NE of Accident. Wed 9:15pm temp 35° seems like summer compared to prior two days’ hi temps of 20 and 22 with virtually all-day nonstop non-accumulating scattered snow showers and flurries. A thin coating on the car on Tuesday morning. Light steady snow began tonight about 8:45pm. Intensity seems to be slowly increasing at the moment. Breezes have really become gusty in last few hours here near the ridge top.

  9. Sitting tight in a cabin in Keysers Ridge/Grantsville area (2800’) 10mi NE of Accident, waiting for tomorrow night’s snow and possible blizzard conditions. Western snow forecast zones are tightly packed so could get anything from 1-3” … to 5-8”. No grass in sight here. Still have a solid 3” otg from last week’s 15” snowfall. Monday hi 20 — flurries all day Today’s hi 22 — Coating of snow on car this morning. Light constant snowshowers/flurries all day but for 2 hours of partial sun late morning, otherwise flurries. Even when it’s not really snowing there seems to be plenty of wispy flakes passing by.
  10. Tuesday morning update from Grantsville/2800’ up — Flurried all night. Ongoing heavier snow showers this morning coated car. 16°. WSW issued for Wed night 4-8” and mention of possible blizzard conditions. https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?warnzone=MDZ001&warncounty=MDC023&firewxzone=MDZ001&local_place1=Grantsville MD&product1=Winter+Storm+Watch&lat=39.697&lon=-79.1572
  11. From my cabin in Grantsville, Md along Keyser Ridge at 2800’ ASL —arrived midday temp at 20° and same all afternoon. Light constant flurries. Still 2-3” otg from last week’s 15”. Wed night forecast has my attention: 80% chance snow windy 45-55+ mph into first part of Thursday. Nice potential setup for this location and particularly this elevation with a strong cold front and upper level energy Was nice driving west watching changing Columbia blue sky go to wispy clouds past Frederick to thickening clouds after HGR to the sky looking like snow toward Frostburg to !BOOM! flurries and snowshowery by Frostburg on westward to all afternoon flurries near Keyser Ridge (since noon). No snow otg heading west of Cumberland. First snow otg at Frostburg.
  12. On the bright side, there is Snow TV Football tonight.
  13. Heading to a cabin between Keysers Ridge and Grantsville for a few days. Will be nice to be in northern Garrett Cty at 2900’.
  14. I keep hearing folks say the Ravens are a top-tier and Super Bowl-worthy team. IMO they are neither and that’s been my position all season. They may be playoff-bound/worthy but as they say, the really good teams find a way to win. The Ravens find ways to lose. They have rarely put together 3+ good quarters in any one game. Last week they did; but generally they don’t.
  15. Where’s Matt Stover when you need him!!??
  16. So frustrating watching this team almost every week. I love the Ravens but Philly has the mojo today. They look like the better team so far. Ravens MIA in 2Q.
  17. Columbia east side — 21.8 for 12/1 low so far
  18. Hopefully the days of euro rain is over.
  19. 11am rainfall totals: Me/East Columbia 0.76”, 3.12” for November BWI 0.61” Heading to a cabin in Grantsville/Keysers Ridge in Garrett Cty on Monday for a few days. Should be a shock to the system: daytime 20s and nighttime teens. Chances for snow or snow showers.
  20. Imby Columbia 0.38" in this morning's short-lived boomer. BWI 0.25"
  21. Another really slow start but a good rebound by late 2Q.
  22. East side of side of Columbia for 11/21-22 mixed event 0.41" rainfall. 2/10" snow.
