  1. Omg, that’s terrible. I’m sorry for you and your family. I know what its like to lose a pet suddenly and its not easy. While the saying is cliche, time heals but it won’t be easy...I hope your son is okay...I’m sure that wasn’t easy for him to see. You’re in my prayers.
  2. Snowshoe definitely has better skiing (and gets more snow) but Wisp is more of a 4 season area given Deep Creek Lake. Wisp is also easier to get to which is why we decided on McHenry instead of Snowshoe. But Snowshoe definitely has more of a “snow village” feeling which I liked when we went there for my 30th a few years ago...Wisp seriously lacks that but does have stuff in the area in McHenry, Swanton, and Oakland. You really can’t go wrong with either if/when you make the jump.
  3. Had a bit of a lull/non accumulating pixie earlier. Currently 21 with very fine snow...it looks like a downpour in the deck lights.
  4. We’ll be back here between Christmas & New Years — pattern is looking drool worthy then.
  5. If that long wave pattern holds, I’d imagine there’ll be really good chances to see frozen that time period. We’ll be back here from the 26th-3rd - hoping for a good event.
  6. It’s ebbed and flowed all day. Doubt there’s a dry slot this far west of the low.
  7. Pouring snow here...not the huge sized flakes but a good medium sized (aka the Goldilocks kind i guess..not too big, not too small, just right?). 20/19 with winds out of the east. Guy just came to plow our hill and driveway...immediately covered again. ETA: Pouring has stopped but still coming down.
  8. I’d go with your measurement, I’m in McHenry about 5-10 minutes from Wisp. I forgot to set up a snowboard this morning so I was using the hood of my SUV, which isn’t the best since I drove up this morning. Even though we miss out on the big bands, we’ll make up for some of that with better ratios, orographic enhancement, and the upslope as the coastal pulls away.
  9. 3.25”. I haven’t been under any yellow banding but the mountains sure are squeezing every bit of liquid they can from these returns. Nice, fluffy flakes.
  10. 0.9” and another 0.1-0.15” in upslope afterwards.
  11. 2.5”...it was 90% snow and 10% ice pellets but back to all snow again. Dendrites coming back.
  12. It’s a Cisco Brewers pale ale...we went there in the summer while we spent a week in Nantucket so some family brought a case during Thanksgiving. Working through them now Ob...SN, 20 degrees, and there’s something magical about watching a fluffy dendrite float down from the sky and land in the snow. I think I have a problem
  13. Just cracked open a beer (its after noon and I’m on PTO), got a fire going, and enjoying the snow that is dumping outside.
  14. HRRR is a snowlovers dream for you. No mixing and 1.1” QPF.
  15. Wow I’m surprised...I guess it helps being at a lower elevation (relatively speaking) for this. 20 and SN here at 2,800’.
  16. 20/19 with SN. Started off light with small flakes but really starting to dump now with dendrites.
  17. Mesoscale’d https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md1852.html
  18. The good news to those east of here is that you won’t waste hours on virga . Once actual returns got over me, I went from flurries to light snow pretty quickly.
  19. A bit of a cad wedge poking down through central VA.
  20. That sounds like a lot of people here.
  21. 21/18 with flurries. Monday’s snow has compacted to about 2” OTG here.
  22. Ask @mattie g what his call is for Harrisburg, PA. I’m sure he has a prediction.
