31 currently. And I think I am going to start rating these cold snaps in bags of bird food. Currently on my 3rd bag since the snow back in January. While it is mainly to feed the birds in the winter it is also cable for our cats. Between suet cakes and the feeder and spreading seed on the snow covered deck they have had a steady stream of action. Even getting the squirrels up which prompts quite the frenzy at the back door.

No snow action down this way, almost clear skies. What IS happening is the wind (again). Currently 36.4/17.6 with NW wind 14 gusting to 31 mph. Had a 37 mph gust a bit ago. The snowpack melted down to bare ground on S/SW facing slopes (20%) to 2-3" in shaded areas 80% over the past two days while it was warm, don't think there will be any melting next few days.

I have seen 7 Snowflakes today. Not quite to my personal 10 flakes to a trace threshold.

[mappy]

5 days shy of a month with snow on the ground, hoping it holds out until the 17th haha I think early 2014 was the last time I’ve had snow on the ground for this long 

[Bubbler86]

2014 was such a wild winter. That run of snow and cold was incredible. We had snow on the ground for over 40 days at Millersville when I was in college. Surreal

Which is comical to say it’s over. There’s still a solid 2-3” of snow with universal coverage outside of south facing aspects.

Another beautiful winter morning. What an amazing winter it has been here in the lowlands. I'm going to miss these blue bird mornings by next week when it's back to cloudy, humid, and damp every morning. I just need a couple inches of slop at some point to make it to climo for the third winter in a row. This is my 3rd winter in a row with a solid period of snowcover and deep winter conditions. 

Next winter I'm going to be a resident of the upper Tug, in the  Montague area. My climo will increase by around 300" a year lol

[stormy]

14 degrees and calm this morning.

It's the mother land for snow lovers. The prices up there for property are insanely cheap. I'm looking for at least 10 acres. One of the places I'm looking is 28 acres. I want snowmobile/hiking trails on my own property. I'm going to transfer my business up there and add a snow removal side to it. My dream of having my own homestead that gets nuked with snow every winter is coming true. Hard work and risks makes dreams come true. 

I talked to a long time local when I was up there. The worst winter he ever say only dropped 180". The worst was well beyond 400". They always do good. They get storms and they have the lake machine. The elevation on the upper Tug is around 2k feet. I noticed it's about 10 degrees colder on the Tug then at the level of the 81 corridor. 

Sorry for banter lol. Mods please move.

Obligatory post for obs purposes to say its a bright & sunny 25 degrees this morning, still about 3-4" snowcover in the yard 

It is amazing up there, congratulations on the business move and the success. My wife would never let us move from somewhere not far from here, but I've been toying with where I'd want that second place to be. It was FL before, and to be honest, these winters have made me care less and less about snow thanks to the repeated screw jobs... but we're all weenies at heart. 

The other place I'd consider is out near Denver in the northwest hills - Black Hawk or somewhere at some higher elevation where snow is more frequent but there are plenty of sunny days and its 20 degrees warmer 2 days after snow.

It is a bright sunny one. It's colder than I expected this morning. It looks like I'll make 3 weeks without seeing the grass imby. 

Thanks! It's sounds like you have some great spots in mind. You might like Davis out in WV. It's not far but pretty wintery for a local spot. It's beautiful out there.

22 this AM in fallston. Snowcover still there at about 4-5" of depth. Amazing staying power.  Day 19 of continuous snowcover since the storm.

My question is how hard is it to drive in places like this without spending 60K on truck. Could someone just stick studded tires on say a Camry and be ok up there?

Low of 22 in Columbia.
