And it's gone. Nothing but a memory. Hopefully we get a lot more. It was an enjoyable little event. It was nice having a deep winter day in early December.
The thundersnow storm i had last Feb made the valentine's squall look like a flizzard. I got over an inch of snow in about 7 minutes along with intense lightning and strong wind.
I can't believe Bacon Ridge in Crownsville (160-180' elevation) is yet again looking to do better than Parrs Ridge in Carroll County (max 1000' elevation). I'll be up at 3am. I'm charging my headlamps for my 4am hike.
Gfs nudged north.
33 and rain. Yup. It's winter lol. At least it's actually raining and looks to continue all day. We need the rain. I canceled my catoctin hike this morning. Didn't look worth it.
We can't even get rain. Why would it snow lol. At this point I'd be happy with an actual rainy day where it rains all day and we get over an inch. I feel like it's been a couple years since we've had that lol.
Im thinking about staying in Thurmont tomorrow night so I can get an extra early start in the Catoctins Tuesday morning. I'm thinking up at 1500' and above should get 2-3". Maybe 3-5" on the highest trails.
I live at like sea level and it's basically still fall here in the lowlands. But whatever lol. I'm off work until March 1. I'll be out in the Catoctins at daybreak gearing up for a hike up to 1800'.
