NorthArlington101 Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago I'm probably going to slide out to western Garrett Co. for this one. I am off after Thursday AM, so I'm probably going to leave early Friday AM and head out there for the Arctic front and snow squalls. Should be fun! Anyone care to join the ride? Can’t be for me this time but I’m very jealous! Send pictures and I hope you get a buddy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my wife and I want to take a trip up to the mountains, we go through there on Rt.234. Very nice drive and not far from mby. Have fun. By the way, if you're interested in decent Mexican food, stop off at Montezumas Restaurant on PA Rt. 30 on the west side of Gettysburg. We love it. You can get back to Baltimore via Rt. 30 from Michaux too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never hiked there. In college, many, many years ago, it was Cunningham locally and Shenandoah/Big Meadows area on weekend trips. Always wanted to hike Old Rag, but never got around to it.

I’ve done Old Rag at least ten times. I’ll let you know when I go though I doubt it will be before the permit season starts March 1. It also always includes a trip to the Coppet Fox distillery in Sperryville. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Lake Erie is largely frozen over which may reduce the amount of decaying squall activity reaching w MD for rejuvenation, but the flow seems due northerly more from a Lake Ontario fetch anyway at least over e MD. I can't see this dropping more than 0.1" or 0.2" at airports and population centers, maybe an inch or two in higher areas to the west. Could be brief moderate snow conditions during fropa which looks to be around 0200-0400 Saturday. Monday 9th looks a bit more promising for small amounts of snow.

CAPE Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Snippet from WPC Forecast Discussion- With the passage of the Arctic front, snow squalls are possible from MI and western NY to OH, PA, and WV starting late Thursday night and continuing through the day on Friday. Some of the stronger showers and squalls are looking increasingly likely to spill over the central Appalachians into parts of the Mid-Atlantic later in the afternoon, possibly impacting the evening commute on Friday. Upslope snow in the central Appalachians should maximize Friday afternoon/evening as the front moves through. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago No thanks Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 400 AM EST Wed Feb 4 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... Winds continue to trend stronger for the weekend with solid Wind Advisory (greater than 45 mph) conditions becoming increasingly likely everywhere late Friday night through Saturday with damaging winds (58 mph or stronger) also possible. && .KEY MESSAGES... - A potent winter storm with multiple hazards is likely to impact the region Friday into the weekend. && .DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1...A potent winter storm with multiple hazards is likely to impact the region Friday into the weekend. A potent upper trough and Arctic cold front are set to track across the region Friday into the weekend. A lead shortwave-trough ahead of the Arctic front will bring the chance of snow showers areawide during the day Friday with moderate to heavy snow across the mountains as upper trough digs and lift increases. Snow squalls are possible everywhere Friday night with blizzard-like conditions possible across the mountains for a short period of time Friday night. There will also be an abrupt onset of very windy conditions immediately behind the passage of the Arctic front late Friday night. Wind Advisory conditions are becoming increasingly likely late Friday night through Saturday with winds potentially reaching High Wind Warning criteria for a large portion of the forecast area given the magnitue of the 925 and 850 mb winds and favorable mixing during daylight hours. This when combined with rapidly falling temperatures will result in Cold Weather Advisories everywhere even during the warmest part of the day Saturday. Extreme Cold Warnings are also possible across the mountains. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know. 30 years of it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
