katabatic

Trying to post the pic but image is too big…but 10 minutes after the snow began, pingers. All damn pingers…

Well that didn't take long...SN now. Immediate stickage on the roads. Should be a fun few hours.

Radar says I should be seeing something based on decent KPBZ returns, but nada yet (Mountain Lake Park, el 2,483 ft). Would be nice to see a decent front end before it turns to slop.

I’m going to be chasing from Maryland…if there are folks meeting up (hotel etc), let me know. PM me if you get a sec.

Yes (dead serious). I know I am not a known entity on this board but if anyone wants to join forces and stay at the same hotel, etc. PM me. Just bought a new 4WD and ready for an adventure. Chased the Boston storm in January and itching for an epic LES event.

I’m not a frequent poster as I just like to read and learn, but I have done something similar. I couldn’t stand living in MoCo for many of your stated reasons and moved out to Mountain Lake Park (Garrett County) due in no small part that I love snow and just wanted a slower pace. While certainly not completely off the grid, I found myself saying “I need to go to into town…” and just smiled. I got 1.6” of upslope yesterday and loved every flake. Glad to hear you took the plunge and all the best to you and your wife. Keep the pictures coming of your progress.

I’m in Richmond while the hubby is in MLP. Was 77 here in RIC and mid 40s back home. Coming back tomorrow will be a shock!

Still yellow with NWS, but got some dark greens with the folks at WPC…

Nice! It came down legit moderate snow for about 5 minutes just a short while ago in MLP with the wind roaring since many trees still have leaves. It will be interesting to see what the morning brings. Point forecast has me at 2 inches. Hope to verify!

@jonjon I’m seeing the same in Mountain Lake Park.

Couldn’t stand it living in Maryland so got the last Acela out of DC and barreling towards South Station. Love the commentary and insight. It’s show time - lets get the party started. Cheers to something we’ll be telling stories about 20 years down the road.

Serious consideration for upgrade to Blizzard Warning tomorrow per LWX disco out here in the Allegheny Front. Should be intense regardless of the headlines.

Due to wind, estimated 5.5 at Deep Creek. Beautiful, snowy afternoon but the spigot has been turned off for now. Hoping the upslope tomorrow brings a nice second round. Fun day.

All snow in Germantown now.

Still sleet and freezing rain mix in Germantown...deck rails already have a glaze. Weird.

I’m in Germantown and the heavy sleet just woke me up. Wow.

Rain here in Germantown
