    Yesterday wasn’t shabby either. Was up overnight to reload the firewood with crystal clear skies and bright moonlight. Seems like another world entirely this morning.

    Piles of standing water over here. Suspect the ground remains frosty below the surface. Going to be an epic mud season up here.

    Amazing call. Snuck up today at zero dark thirty for the first visit in 2 weeks. Trying to coax the remainder of the crew up for the weekend. Guess we'll see.

    Hopefully it works out OK. WISP has been sold out of snow tubing for this weekend for a couple weeks already. Happy they managed to salvage a decent season after a disasterous start. We are on the fence this weekend with projects in flight in both places. The mild wx argues for sticking closer to home.

    +1.2F at Deep Creek / Swanton this AM. Up to 21*F now. Big thaw incoming Weds / Thurs, weekend looks sunny and boring.

    Roads are kinda awful though, sun got everything wet and now ice crust on top.

    Maybe they got the memo from VDOT Fredericksburg residency?

    After a +7 October and December, it’s difficult for anyone to honestly suggest we really saw any of this coming.

    Careful, the medium range looked pretty awful on NWP December 27 too

    We bottomed out at -11.8 here. On the ride in from I-68 along MD 495 the temperature fluctuated from a high of +10 to a low of -11 all within a couple of miles. Was still -7 when I arrived but all the way to +8 now. Impressive cold!

    NWS adjusted predicted low temperatures for overnight (higher) today for Deep Creek area and Potomac Highlands. Official forecast is now zero, my PWS is already +1 with multiple surrounding stations below zero. As the lake is now frozen, many of the usually warmer lakefront PWS are leading the way this evening.

    We shall refer to this as the unhappy hour run

    -6.9 at Deep Creek / Swanton around 6A. Beat Friday by 7*F

    The dew point made it with room to spare, but not the temp. Brilliant night of calm wind and moonlight none the less.

    I picked a good day for (remote) remote work. Now we set our sights for clear skies and a shot at sub zero temps. I got to beat +1.9 for the seasonal low

    Lake Erie appears to be open for business across Western PA and Garrett County this morning. I don’t believe this was modeled.

    Congratulations louis uccellini

    Nothing against Davis. Deep Creek is like Leesburg west. We have quite the extended social network here. My kiddos find WISP plenty intimidating and neither the wife nor I are really capable to ski. We are from RIC after all, no one in our xennial cohort grew up skiing.

    If you can put in a little sweat equity and have patience you might be able to get away with about half that investment but it won’t come quickly. Land is really affordable if you don’t have a lake view / lake access, but I would not invest what you’ve been quoted unless I had a proper lot to build it on. Happy to compare notes in PM if interested on what I built in 20-21 in Swanton.

    If you are buying the land this year and expect a cabin next year, you better get hustling. Ain’t nothing moving fast at the lake. Ask me how I know.

    2000 looms large Maybe a every other month flip starting with November? would be a punting of february with a return in March, almost certainly favoring DC and points west vs. the south and east jackpot zones observed at least earlier in January, and potentally later this week.

    That’s a nasty curve on a sunny day. My place is a half mile up N Glade from there.
