  1. It's on the same side of the highway as the ski area. Super easy to get to but the lodge is somewhere else as this is kinda by itself. @Terpeast you can get them ahead of time. I was surprised at how few people were there today so you could have easily walked up but its too far to take a chance imo. It's a 2 hour window that costs a very reasonable $36.
  2. Beautiful day at Canaan State Park. Temp in the mid 20s with zero wind.
  3. Upslope since about 8:30 this morning has been no joke. Another 3.4" and a storm total so far of 4.9" and it's still coming down. Cracked the 60" mark for the season.
  4. Received 1.5" with pixie dust blowing around. Upslope looks good for a few more thru Sunday morning. 17 degrees currently - deep winter continues. Eyeing the Tug Hill for a chase after the surge of cold air next weekend should bring a period of intense LES. Anyone else interested?
  5. Mother Nature has a way of creating her own art and design. The front of my porch faces east and the prevailing winds are from the west, so I get these snow overhangs from time to time but this one takes the cake.
  6. 5.9 here. Winds remained slightly elevated until right before sunrise. Not nearly as dramatic as Canaan NWR's temperature tank, but followed a similar path. Was hoping to see 0 but looks like that'll wait a little while.
  7. Sent ya a message. Be glad to pick them up!
  8. The Garrett County Republican. I'll be glad to pick up a few copies for you if you want.
  9. @EskimoJoe you guys made front page news [emoji2]
  10. Since Sunday, hit the 2 foot mark, albeit barely (24.2"). The snow ended around noon and sun is now out - haven't seen the 'ol sol in a long time. Best upslope event here since the January '22 storm. January last year had an awesome stretch, but it came to a screeching halt and within a few days was damn near 60 degrees. Doesn't look like that'll happen this year, at least not in the next week or two. Heading to Canaan to go tubing Sunday which should be a lot of fun.
  11. 4.6" of fluff overnight and this morning (continues to snow now), temp remained relatively steady with a low of 12.2. Makes the 4 day total 22.6" so far.
  12. It's got to be close here (WSW criteria). The WWA says 6" for the 219 corridor and that would be me. I received 1.4" in about 35 minutes around 4:30 PM. I was on a work call, looked outside and told them I had to drop off. Threw on my boots and walked around the 'hood in the big, fluffy flakes. Snowing now, but not particularly hard. 13.5 degrees.
  13. Getting very close to SN+ here with ~1/4 mile visibility. @jonjon my deck isn't quite as impressive as yours, but that's my goal lol. 16 degrees after an afternoon high of 18.
  14. Snowfall rates in the last 30 minutes have really increased. Received right at an inch overnight after 14.5" the previous 36 hours. Low was 12.2, currently 13.5. Looking for another 4-6" before this upslope event cuts off tomorrow afternoon. Best stretch of winter since I moved here in 2022. All of the area resorts are in excellent shape - if you were ever thinking of a weekend getaway to play in the snow to ski/tube, this weekend would be the perfect time to do it.
  15. It's been a great upslope day. Sometimes the upslope is just conversational snow...not amounting to much. But today, I shoveled the driveway several times. I'd say in the last 24 hours, I've picked up 6.5" upslope on top of the 8 with the 'regular' storm. Driving around town, the piles are getting enormous (especially at the Oakland Wal-Mart) ... just so damn neat. High today at mi casa was only 18.
  16. Since the end of the ULL, I've received 5 inches and it continues to steadily come down. Windy and 17 - a true winter's day. Advisories up until noon Thursday for 3-6+. Snow map shows me in the 6-8 range. Love it.
  17. I received 8" from the storm itself (thank you, ULL) and since then, steady upslope snow since about 8 PM last night added another 3.5" so just shy of a foot. Fluffy stuff as temps are bouncing between 14-15. Visibilities this morning have been under a mile, so this is turning out to be a fairly significant upslope event as well.
  18. The ULL was the best part by far. Closing in on 8". Being outside and shoveling (I love doing that because a) it's in the snow, duh and b) it's really good exercise) without any wind was just so refreshing. Hoping to score a bit more this week via upslope. @nj2va you're the upslope expert - how's it looking
  19. The second round just began in southern Garrett. I hope, at least imby, the second round is better than the first because the first - out here with our 10-20" forecast as of last night - was pretty pitiful (4" so far).
  20. That's what I expect here (a struggle to get to the min). Going to sleep at midnight it was 10-20 with a potential max of 25 and a heavy snow meso discussion thrown in for posterity. I now have 2.5 with a few showers a long way off. I hope we are both pleasantly surprised with the second half. Good luck!
  21. This is about what I have and what I see. You think this is going to pick up or do we have an epic bust on our hands?
  22. About 2.5" with nothing currently and some scattered returns looking westward.
  23. Snow! And under a meso discussion for heavy snow as well. I live for this stuff. Temp 17.8 with little wind.
  24. The Garrett County warning is a beautiful read. Up to 24 inches which would be incredible (although I highly doubt that will occur here in MLP). The upslope after the storm passes doesn't look like something to turn your nose up at either. BTW, thank you for all of your insight! Nights like this don't come around very often.
  25. Yes, I am about 10 miles south of DC lake. I am about a mile away from Broadford Lake. @nj2va is much closer to the lake and about 300 feet higher than me, and it has begun there. Should be any minute. Doing my best to stay awake; at least the Sunday Night NFL game is on.
