I’d say we’ve got 1.25-1.5” addl on areas that I cleared when we switched to pingers. buddy outside of Etown said lingers still mixin in. He has 10” on deck.

getting closer to me. Hoping I can flip, so I can flip the NAM the friggin bird.

Back to all snow when it’s heavy. Lighter stuff is when we ping. If this is what the rest of the storm is. Perfectly fine.

Glad you said that. When I went out to measure I thought it to be the largest I’ve seen.

7.75" 50/50 sn/ip

going out to do another measurement now that we pingin

if we get 2" of sleet (which i do expect) this is likely going nowhere for a very long time.

ceiling lifted a bit, and I knew what that meant. opened the door. 11:20 first pingers mixed in.

10:45 measurement 7.25” still rippin. How do I post pics? Phone file too large

Yeah man. FWIW, NAM had me at 3" for 10:00 am I'm at 6-7" and rippin. Nooner also gives me an extra hour till pingers take over. Looks like 1pm verbatim, but I'm hoping thats off as well. While I'm fine w/ the sleet (hate zr), I'm pulling for 10" snow prior. Here's to hopin

Thats been my hopes from days ago. While we could fight dryslotting, thermally its the better option. Will be interesting to see how the next few hours play out, as this is boom time snow right now. Eyeball 6-7" on my table outside. Will take a measurement in next hour. Sunday funday in full effect. Enjoy all.

huh...how'd i miss this. my grids didnt update but i like the sexy talk anyway. Enjoy all Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service State College PA 717 AM EST Sun Jan 25 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... * Winter Storm Warnings remain in effect through 1 PM Monday with significant snowfall expected across all of central Pennsylvania. * Increased snowfall totals across much of the area due to higher confidence in a band of heavier snow occurring across north-central Pennsylvania. * Updated precipitation types across the southern tier of Pennsylvania to account for more snowfall, still some sleet/freezing rain mentions retained.

without a base, lite fluffy (like LES) hi ratio snow has no density. skis push right through to ground. Tears up carbides (stainless steel/carbide runners) on bottom of skis. When pingers pile up, it creates that needed base for you to "stay up/float" on top of snow (but not too much snow). Its as you an I often call it the "densifier". As i actually have about 1.5" ish inches stil otg from last week i'd be fine, but in areas that have lost snow (etown/mt. joy was bare as of friday), the sleet will make the riding super fun, now if it gets too deep, then sleet, it gets challenging as you are now "floating" or carving through the snow. if we get 6-8 then 1-2" of sleet, it will be f'in amazing riding.
