Just measured 2" on the money at 6:30 pm. Still snowing pretty good. 24.6/21.1

We 'virga'd' for a good 45 minutes to hour before it started hitting the ground this afternoon.

Absolutely pouring here, closest cam.

Great. Hope he makes it safely!

They treated major roads (64/220/60) here yesterday.

ditto

Snowing here, roads are covered that are not treated. DC? Is he traveling 95 south to 85 now? THAT would be a much better chance of missing most of this.

He has posted near Eagle Rock, about 15/18 miles south of me, and I agree with the truck lol.

Fixed lol

Gone from small flakes to large dendrites with visible 'arms' as they fall, beautiful! Currently 26.8/19.9

That would be awesome, but I sorta doubt it will. I'll most certainly go sleet at some point, if not freezing rain. Just a little too far south for this one, still thinking we get 4-6 before the mess arrives.

Small flakes but finally snowing here. We'll see what happens. Down to 29.8/14.0.

Waiting, but it is close. Cameras in White Sulphur Springs are flaking. Currently 32.3/5.8.

He wants to get thru there then. My 'start time' is 4 pm here, same as Roanoke. His trip from Roanoke down to I-77/I-40 meet may be a bit dicey.

11/22: 0.2 01/04: 0.4 Total 0.6

High was 26.7 degrees today, chilly but not a record for a 'cool max', as 2018's 18.7 will easily stand.

I went 22/18/21 I think, so I'm rooting against myself for a hit up there lol.

Yep, and 0.6 so far this! And I feel lucky, just south was even worse, Blacksburg did 3.5 and Roanoke 4.1 for last year.

My numbers for December 2024 Averaged high was 43.6 degrees vs a normal of 45.5 degrees, -1.9 degrees below average. The highest temp recorded was 60.8 degrees on the 10th. Averaged low was 25.2 degrees vs a normal of 25.7 degrees, -0.5 degrees below normal. The coldest temp recorded was 12.4 degrees on the 23rd. Overall averaged temp was 34.4 degrees vs a normal of 35.6 degrees, -1.2 degrees below normal. Total precip for month was 3.36 inches vs a normal of 3.22 inches, a +0.14 inches above average. The greatest rainfall was on the 11th with 0.95 inches falling. There were 15 days with measurable, 5 days with a 'T', and 11 dry days. Total snowfall was a 'T' vs a normal of 4.2 inches, -4.2 inches below average. There were 11 days with a T and 20 snowless days. Highest wind recorded was 44 mph on the 12th. One new record, a new 'cool max' set on the 3rd. Overall a semi-chilly and wet month with remarkably low snowfall that ties second place with several previous years. Year end numbers for 2024, total precip 46.05 inches, 5.7 inches of snowfall. A high of 95.2 degrees on 7/17 and a low of 4.9 degrees on 1/17, exactly 6 months apart!

You know, I'm not the smartest person in this thread weather-wise, so someone explain to me how I (and anyone S to SW) of the 540 line running from Dover to Martinsburg to Pittsburgh is shown as all snow with that low placement in north-central WV and a non-dominating high over the northeast to keep CAD going? I know 540 isn't everything, but it is something. I won't complain if it happens, just don't understand what it is seeing.

Blacksburg hiked up warnings about 60 minutes ago

Orleans and Ace lol!

That IS close

Appears the 'claw' (or jaws) has returned, just turned slightly E-W
