katabatic

Temp this morning here was -5.6 so a hint of things to come. Just got upgraded to a Warning with 6-8" and up to 60 mph winds. Still not completely sold on that kind of accumulation with Huron mostly and Erie especially closed for business. While this is nothing historic of course, it's still going to be a pretty solid ~24 hours out here in the Boonies.

Cracked freezing today for the first time in 13 days altho not by much (hi was 34). I must say it feels like it's about 60 out lol. Amazing how the body adjusts to temps.

I was surprised that I got down to -16.8 last weekend...usually Bittinger does a little better than I do. Tell folks you need to do some serious QA for the mesonet sites and come out with us

If anyone wants to come out, @MillvilleWx and I are going to do the local chase thing...and I got room in my truck for others. Heading to Keyser's Ridge and probably on to Davis and a few spots in between. Waterfalls are completely frozen and you could build a house on Deep Creek the ice is so solid. Great pics if nothing else. Should be an intense few hours during the peak of this thing as well.

What goods there are, are down in your 'hood. My WWA was canceled although I have what I would describe as a heavy dusting (less than 1/2") with very light snow continuing. I'd love it if you got a couple inches!

Heck yeah! I'd love to meet up. I'll PM you my digits.

Hi in the mid teens. Beautiful scene today at Swallow Falls (Garrett County MD)

If anyone has an interest in coming out to the mountains next weekend, looks like we're going to get a solid upslope event. Conditions at the resorts are absolutely ideal as I'm sure you can imagine and stand to get even better after this week. Heading out soon to get some pics of the frozen waterfalls (another below zero night last night) at Swallow Falls and then on to Blackwater Falls.

Made it down to -16.8 before the sun was fully up.

Coldest morning since I moved here. I tried throwing a cup of water in the air thing…yeah, not cold enough lol. But still neat to take that squeaky snow walk.

16.2 for the high, 0.7 for the low. Temp is 6 now altho falling fairly quickly so might get below zero before midnight. First day in a week that I didn't get any snowfall. Got a report that mid-lake at Deep Creek the ice is 8-10" thick and in the coves, over a foot thick. Doesn't appear as tho I'll go above freezing for the next two weeks at least. The ice fishing shanties are appearing and think I'm going to watch Grumpy Old Men to get in the spirit lol.

Another really cold day, high was only 10.2. Received another 1.2" from light snow that fell most of the day. Currently 6 outside with fairly light winds. If we decouple, temps will tank - been waiting for that to happen to record a double digit below zero night. See if that happens anytime soon.

Hi temp here was 11.8 (currently 7.9) with very light snow this afternoon. Maybe 1/2" but seems to have tapered off now. For the first time in many days, the wind has subsided and is rather pleasant to take a walk outside and get out of the house.

Temp is 12 and our next round of snow has begun. Nice to hopefully add a few more inches to our tally. Wind chill this morning was as low as -28 so I am absolutely loving this deep winter. Now, if we can pull that weekend storm west, that would put the exclamation point on this beautiful stretch of winter.

It's been snowing steadily all day long. True, it's fluff but still beautiful and accumulating. I find it amazing they got 19" just a few miles north of me (I recorded 8.5", mostly sleet). Wisp slopes are now in the best shape by far in my 4 winters here. Anyone thinking of coming to Wisp or Timberline to ski or tube, this is the time to do it.
