  1. 2” here. Hoping for one more burst before warmth moves in aloft.
  2. Went to a sleet/snow mix here for a while, but this band is dropping parachutes. Big flakes knocking down visibility.
  3. Light snow and 31°. First band laid down about 0.25”. Next bands are either gonna be pretty good or sleety.
  4. With skies still mostly clear, I’ve dropped to 26° with the DP at 15. My location typically does very well with radiational cooling. Working it’s magic so far this evening.
  5. I pulled up the point-and-click forecast for Mount Storm, West Virginia. After their 4 to 7 inches of snow and a quarter inch of ice tomorrow, the temperature on Friday night falls to’ -3°F, with wind gusts to 60 mph. Saturday’s forecast high is 5°F. That’s pretty impressive for December, even there.
  6. Drove Rt. 9 into northern Virginia this morning. Beautiful ride from the top of the mountain at the Loudoun County line all the way to Paeonian Springs with lots of ice in the trees.. even saw a few branches down. As soon as I got to Rt 7 there was no ice left.
  7. Berkeley County WV where I live just closed schools for tomorrow. 35/18 here at dusk
  8. 35/19 and cloudy. Calm wind. Baro 30.18 and falling.
  9. My first winter in WV. I was so frustrated after that bust, and the winter to that point, that I headed to the mountains for a snow fix. When I returned, a great pattern set in and there were numerous snowfalls through mid-March.
  10. The line blew through here without much action. Some brief heavy rain, but no thunder or lightning. Winds have gotten gusty behind it though.
  11. Light snow here and the temp has fallen to 33°. Have a solid dusting on elevated surfaces and mulch, and a bit on the grass.
  12. With yesterday’s rainfall, Martinsburg may be able to record above-normal precipitation for the month of November for only the 3rd time in the past 16 years. Other years were 2011 and 2018.
  13. From a local orchard’s FB page today, at Orr’s in Martinsburg.. nice wintry photo for mid-April
  14. Bordering on heavy snow now. Visibility approaching 1/4 mile. Temp has dropped to 32°. 0.3” on the snow board Midday mid-April sun angle cancel.
  15. Snowing very nicely here at 34° Grass is beginning to whiten
  16. It’s my 16th winter at this location. Only two of those winters had less snowfall than this year. 2008-09: 5.1” 2019-20: 6.4” 2021-22: 10.6”
  17. 1/7 — 6.0” 1/16 - 3.5” 1/28 - 0.1” 2/13 - 1.0” season total 10.6” Climo is 26.5”
  18. I think the last time DCA measured more snowfall than I did in my yard for a full season was 2008-09. It happens, but not very often.
  19. Current LWX forecast for Sunday here is partly sunny with a high of 34. Hoping the models showing a snowstorm start to gain more support.
