  1. You won't get stuck. We have the equipment here...I've been here for two winters and have never been unable to go where I wanted.
  2. 27.7 with freezing fog less than a quarter (1/8th?) of a mile vis IMBY. Nasty morning for driving.
  3. I also do the lakes - nothing is as intense as LES. I did a chase in the Sierra last winter which was epic but paled to being under an Erie/Ontario band. You’ll know I’m @Snowshoe because my truck with (albeit not perfectly laid out, but still cool imo) plates will be in the lot with a guy shoveling for fun.
  4. I think you’re going to need a little more elevation than Deep Creek. I live just south of the lake and plan on heading to Snowshoe. Since it’s off season, it’s cheap - and 4,800 feet. Since you’re making the effort, thought I’d suggest a plan B for ya.
  5. Yep, thinking my first chase of the year will be at Snowshoe
  6. Take a peek at the AFD. Good stuff and it's within a week. Let's see what the HH run shows.
  7. 36 with 0.28" in the bucket so far with a stiff breeze. Now this feels like November.
  8. My mother in law - who is 73 years old - is visiting from Ecuador and has never seen falling snow (hell, she might as well be from DC). Anyways it would be a real treat if we got some snow before she leaves on the 26th. Thanks for sharing.
  9. BWI: 2.3" DCA: 0.6" IAD: 1.9" RIC: T Tiebreaker LYH: 1.1"
  10. Front is through - 56.3 breezy degrees after a midnight temp of 68(!). Enough rain to wet the ground but the station imby didn't register any precip. Beautiful fall weekend coming up.
  11. 78.3 even at my elevation. Truly felt like a late summer day with a touch of humidity and the warm breeze.
  12. 26.1 coldest so far this young season. 1.37" of precip for October so far.
  13. I've averaged 48 degree swings before today. Car encased in ice then damn near 80 in the afternoon. Wild.
  14. 0.18” of upslope rain. Down to 39.8 after a midnight high of 59. Went flurry hunting at Spruce Knob earlier today. Didn’t pan out but still a beautiful half day trip.
  15. Decoupled nicely - 30.6 this frosty morning. Going up to Spruce Knob Monday morning (banking holiday) to see if I can catch a few flakes
  16. Foggy and 34.9. That weird hum? Yep, the furnace waking up.
  17. 1.29” since Sunday afternoon of needed rain. Looks like next week is crisp, bonafide fall. Me likey.
  18. Chipping away at the drought - 0.70" since yesterday afternoon and 2.25" for the month (most of it in last 8 days).
  19. 0.56" - first decent rain since Debby's remnants came through. My Mom died Saturday night and was an avid gardener and it felt like she sent the rain. I'd like to think so at least.
  20. Glad the radar was colorful but once again not in MLP. 0.02” for the day and 0.19” for the month. About 5” since the beginning of June. Should be around 25.
  21. I got up to 74.8 today...most of the past 10 days I've seen basically Ely, NV weather...the diurnal spread has been between 35 and 40 degrees. I'll wait until we are due to get some rain to patch up the yard after I singed the F out of about 20% of the grass w/too heavy fertilizer spread in the spring
  22. This morning was the first in over a week where I didn't end up in the 40s (or 30s earlier in the week) at 52.5. Colors are starting to pop beyond the (beautiful) sugar maples although I think drought stress is contributing more to that than just the warm days/cool nights. Sure as hell be nice to get some rain. I'm sitting at 0.12" for the month so far.
  23. I was curious how you did last night. Fairly decent amount of frost here as the low was 35.6. The NWR always amazes me.
