Temp is 29 after falling to 27 earlier. Clouds are moving in.

Now up to 31.1 - hoping for some cooling at onset of precip.

I'm following right behind you.  Up to 30.6 (from 23.5).  However, dp is 23 and wet bulb is 27.  I'm pretty sure we'll both drop some once the snow gets going. With a wet bulb of 27, that could pull me back to between 28 and 29.  Hey, it still accumulates at 32, and if it falls heavily enough it can still accumulate up to 34.  Oh wow, as I'm about to hit send I've now caught up to you...31.1 !  That's almost 8 degrees up from just a few hours ago.  In any case, my board is set up for whatever I get, along with my clear vue gauge to melt down at the end.  Off to bed for now.  I'll see if I can get myself out of bed by 7:00 ish to catch the first hour or two of accumulations.

>>PS...Now I'm up to 31.6......ughh...nope...Now up to 32.0.  This is ridiculous.  Now 32.2.  I should have hit send 10 minutes ago...lol.

Don't let it worry you too much, buddy. The magical snow elves operate there dendritic growth factories and mystical snow cannons way way up high in the clouds so that those mean warm nose trolls and their grumpy taint dragons cant melt all the magical snowflakes before they reach Middle Earth.

True that. Rain or snow, i'm ready to go. I'm out here at 4:10am putting up christmas lights feeling the holiday spirit. Maybe feeling it a little too much.

Can confirm out this way.   Quick .5” 

 

28/25

[Yardstickgozinya]

Didn't take long at all to get right to a nice, steady snow, which is great. Let's get as much as possible before the sun starts coming up.

Flurries at the moment.  Temp 32.4.  The only thing caved so far is expectations.

Snowing in Marysville with all surfaces lightly covered at 6 am.

[2001kx]

2.25" so far and roads are horrible.

[mitchnick]

Sleet line blew past me in Hanover after 1/2"+. Hopefully for those to my north it'll slow down. Fwiw, down here,  the much maligned NAM was pretty close to right all along.

Good luck!

Already looks to be about 1.5” here and snowing pretty good. I’m at hunting camp over in Spruce Creek (NW Huntingdon Co). Looks similar at home, temp is 28ºF.
