Looks like I may have leveled off, running between 15.9 and 16.2 last hour. Currently 16.1/11.8 at 11:45 pm. Also have picked up a bit of cloud cover, at least partly cloudy.

I didn't start keeping records until 1979, but 12/89 was awesome here. -10.8 and 17.1 inches of snow with 25 days of snow OTG!

16.2/11.7 at 10:30, still a slow drop.

Although I'd prefer for this pattern to stick around, I have zero complaints for the first half of this month. Running a -8 on temps, had 11.1 inches of snow and measurable snow OTG for 9 days and a T for three more.

Definitely has slowed down the fall, currently 18.3/11.9 at 9 pm here.

IDK why NWS has decided to play the game with storm reports. Our last snow I sent THREE reports (a 0.5 at 7 am, a 3.3 at 1 pm and a 5.1 at 7 pm) during the storm with storm totals as it added up over an 18 hour period. NOT ONE made the storm report list or the semi-final that they issued about an hour after my third report was sent in. I sent a message thru the spotter network asking was I on 'ban' for some reason? Their answer was, 'well, you know, things get hectic when we have snow'. Yes, I'm sure it does, but not enough to ignore/miss THREE reports from the same location. Magically my last report showed up about 10 minutes later.

19.7/12.2 at 7:45 pm after a 28.9 high. Forecast is an 18 low? Someone better tell the atmosphere to hit the brakes.

I didn't bottom out until 4:28 am at 5.8, up to 6.5 at 7 am CoCoRaHS report and now 7.9/1.8 at 8:50 am.

5.8 degrees for the low, new record for the date (1989 10 degrees). Least the winds are down into the 5-15 mph range this morning.

Airport up at Hot Springs VA is currently 1/-6 with NW winds 21/33 and a WC of -20.

10.7/-3.2 at 8:45 pm here. NW wind 12/21 making WC -4 to -8 degrees. Edit- I know it isn't calling for it to get THAT cold, but if this wind calms... do we head for the DP?

I need 10 degrees to tie record low (1989), anything lower will be a new one.

11.9/-1.9 at 5 pm. Wind NW at 17 gusting 29 mph. Edit- WC -5 to -9.
