WVclimo

Some light snow falling here now. Small flakes.

Partly cloudy and 14/8. Hoping for a snow shower this morning.

Best snow cover I ever saw was in my yard in Cumberland, MD in Jan-Feb 1978. 57 consecutive days of at least 10” on the ground. What amazing winters those were in the late 70’s.

That explains why we didn’t get the WWA. We don’t have that problem here because our horses and wagons don’t slide on snowy roads.

No advisory here. Lack of societal impact lol. Per the HWO: This was issued for areas between the Blue Ridge and Interstate 95 due to enhanced societal impact during the morning rush hour.

Day 12-13 GFS with a southern slider that drops accumulating snow from New Orleans across the NW corner of Florida and up to the Tidewater of Virginia.

Sun just came out here after 15 minutes of flurries.

Just saw a few small flurries blowing around. 18/1

Too early for me to grade the winter here with March still looming. But to date it’s been another lackluster season. I have about an inch more of snow than last year. About 60% of climo. I have enjoyed the consistent cold weather, but paying the electric bill has taken some of the fun out of that. Some onion snow would certainly be welcome before March Madness and the start of baseball season.

Some pretty intense snow squalls blowing through here this morning. I-81 is shut down due to jack-knifed tractor trailers blocking the southbound lanes. Martinsburg airport recorded a 56 mph wind gust earlier this morning, after a 62 mph gust in the afternoon yesterday.

Maryland put on a shooting clinic tonight, getting their 20th win of the season. Shot 58% from the field, 46% from 3. Outscored Iowa in the second half 54-24.

Slow bleed

Wow under 2” here. Still time to get to 0.

Wind gusts to 70 mph with that. Some areas are under a STW, a WWA and a flood watch.
