Outstanding sunrise here at Deep Creek!

Total ripage...sorry y’all might be the only chance I can say that this year!

Too bad we leave tomorrow! But loving today!

Ripping here in deep creek, instant stickage! I love this place!

Snowing in Deep Creek! Most snow I have seen since I was in Yosemite in fall of 2019!

Here we are mid January with but crumbs to track for the next 15 days...I am about ready to say screw it, I want the shutout to win this thing...Wall to wall lead in the snowfall contest would be epic...so close to going to the dark side and checking into my Panic Room Suite....

...or 3 weeks to late.

I came to Deep Creek, Md for some snow, nada...guess I should have booked a cabin in Waco, Tx. I should just check in to my Suite in the the Panic Room. On the plus side I am still winning the snowfall contest....

I know, I know, just testing the waters on future whining. All I know is that I am currently winning the snowfall contest, and I am not happy about it!

The acting out is because the good pattern is always 15 days away, it’s been 15 days away since Dec 15....

Flurries have commenced! It’s a Christmas Miracle!

We definitely overlapped, LOL! Nice! I may have been banned at highland tap after an unfortunate bachelor party (we went back to re-live our youth in 2005), things went sideways, we ended up at Cheetah 3, we somehow lost the bachelor. Love me some highlands. I have bunches of HS and GT friends still in the area, last of the family left years ago. Need to take my son to a football game sometime post COVID!

I don’t remember it verifying, but always a treat to be under reds instead of pinks!

@Always in Zugzwang Yep, grew up in Atlanta, went to Colorado to study Meteorology, but the school stunk, literally, U. Of N. Colorado in Greeley, if the winds blew from the east, we got the stench of the cattle feed lots, LOL. still have my laminated skew-T chart somewhere.Transferred to GT and studied International affairs, undergrad and Grad. Graduated grad school in 98, then moved up here. Loved my time at GT and growing up in the Atlanta area, but was ready for a change. Totally agree, if you know the cool places and little nieghborhoods, it’s lots of fun. Use to hang out a lot at that Bar/Restaurant at Piedmont park back then. That was Tuck, picture is from the end of the storm after 20in. He was standing and was just kinda stuck. Have a lab now, named ‘Thunder’ lol. He has never seen snow, can’t wait for that to happen!

In 2009/10, they weren’t fantasies though, LOL.

Happy Anniversary @mappy! Dec 19 was one of my favorite DC snowstorms, seen them all since 1998 when I moved to DC, something about a Blizzard just before Christmas was magical though! Plus I was hammered Blizzard eve at my work Christmas party, stumbling home as it was starting...and yes the snow was up to my Golden’s eyeballs that evening!

This was south of Alexandria for that storm...it can snow in November and stick, even to roads! Rates!

Hopefully! I would love to come in last! Though @WxWatcher007 has that locked up! Heading up your way to Deep Creek 2nd week of January to get my fix!

Congrats to those getting hammered...with snow at least. fun event and tracking even though the rain has commenced here in extreme eastern Fairfax county.

Snow fighting off the sleet under good rates here by Mt Vernon

Rain and sleet

Rain and sleet now that was fun while it lasted.

Nice flakes now, -sn

Let’s see what this incoming band has for us.

First flakes! Biggies, very sporadic! I counted 8 so far, lol
