  1. Good precip has been staying just to my west. Need a couple mile shift east to get some decent rates.
  2. I guess I meant perfect as in beautiful views, amazing food, great beer, easy to drive to, comfortable lodging, charming town full of shops and restaurants you can walk to. The snow is the wildcard lol. I do think we will see snow with better rates but this is definitely a discouraging start.
  3. Wow we really suck at snow. My kids are going to be so disappointed if we can't find our way to an inch or two at least. Their teachers told them we would get 3-6" smh.
  4. I live between Winchester and Charles Town. Winchester typically does a bit better in these type of events as they are further west.
  5. What's your definition of good snow? While far below their average, Timberline still had almost 100" last year and have had several decent snowfalls so far this winter.
  6. Sorry, I didn't realize we were in "storm mode". This morning is just another notch in what has been such a memorable winter. Excuse me for trying to find a little humor considering the circumstances.
  7. Rain here a little north of Winchester. So laughable that they closed school for this.
  8. This close to the event are you giving that much weight to globals?
  9. I would imagine they'll be closing the lifts due to high winds at some point today and tomorrow.
  10. Some of the biggest flakes I've seen in a long time!
  11. Best "snowball" snow of the season. Definitely not a dry powdery snow.
  12. Easily heaviest snow of the day right now. Eyeballing at least 3"
  13. Must have gotten into a decent band here. Eyeballing 1.5-2" here in Southern Jefferson Co.
  14. Busy and haven't had a chance to look. What's the timing looking like on that?
  15. This article does a good job explaining the geographical characteristics of Canaan Valley and discusses the record low temperature they recorded this morning. Cool stuff! https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2022/01/22/canaan-valley-low-temperature-record/
  16. Saw this posted for Canaan this morning. That's some serious cold!
  17. Still blows my mind that Timberline averages 180". Different world out there.
  18. What an awesome and memorable storm this ended up being out here in the Shenandoah Valley. One of the higher impact events we've had in a while. I have a very distinct memory from my childhood of being able to walk on top of the snow without breaking through whatsoever and it was really cool watching my kids do just that today and even I can in places at almost 200lbs. It's like a glacier out there!
  19. One of my favorite places ever! Spent a year when I was younger working for a builder up on the mountain. It's been a few years since I've been but I hope to get back soon.
  20. Wise decision to not try to dive home today. Those back road heading out of there can be extremely treacherous. Tomorrow looks like a bluebird day with fresh powder from today's uplsope snow.
