  1. Thanks guys, all is well. And Brian, it was at Ridge Road. I knew it was coming but never saw it. Fog has diminished around here somewhat as well.
  2. So I was reading these posts before my wife and I went out this evening...we were driving up 743 towards Elizabethtown and it got to the point where I couldn't see. Got to a spot where the road makes a sharp left turn...well, we didn't. Slid right on off the road. All is well, but we were shaken for a few minutes. Yeah - it was bad out.
  3. It's worked well for many, many years. Sometimes you have to know your climate in relation to the players on the field. And all costs, ignore snow maps. They'll let you down ALMOST every time.
  4. I'm with you buddy...I think we average somewhere north of 300"/winter just based off snow maps...and that includes the almighty ECMWF...
  5. What an awful cutoff across Lanco... I had to say it. That there is gonna be the "Marysville Mauler" I claim naming rights.
  6. Lot of truth in your words. One thing about weather is there are no absolutes until it's actually happening. I've been burned a few too many times thinking something was definitely going to happen only to end up looking bad. This is a very humbling hobby.
  7. I'm liking early next week for wintry precip... My personal rule of thumb is anytime a primary goes west I set my bar for 2". There have been storms over the years that have brought me more than that, but most times models depict higher amounts than what we end up with. Happened more than once last year...changeover (from all snow) consistently happens sooner than forecast. And 9 times out of 10, 2" is pretty much the max. I'm speaking for my area...Jon, you might be looking at a solid 3".
  8. I believe CTP posted a snow map on Twitter that showed that the accumulating snow stopped right at MDT.
  9. I agree, but my point was you typically have more snow seasonally than I do. Going into last night's "event" I was running a little ahead of you for the season. That's been fixed now.
  10. I'm going to go with 1". Sounds like it might have been a bit more given what @anotherman and a few others around me measured. With 1", I'm now at 3.3" for the season. Which makes sense as you are the local snow magnet!
  11. Correct! I was honestly expecting to see a little more here than at home, especially with elevation.
  12. Yeah...I probably eyeballed it a little low. If I don't actually measure I have a tough time estimating snowfall that is around 1". I easily had an inch on my car.
  13. I didn't measure this morning but it seemed like close to 1" here in Maytown...probably a little less than that. Looks nice out though!
  14. I think it's a pretty safe bet something white falls here later...just not sure about ground truth. Edit: rain/snow mix here now and 36.
  15. It certainly looks like I could be wrong with my thought process yesterday. A lot of guidance is suddenly painting advisory criteria snows well south and east of me...I didn't see that coming.
  16. As you and @MAG5035 have pointed out, the pattern is at the very least looking less hostile than it has recently. We're going to need some luck with timing of various features but we can see how things could come together to bring us some fun. At a 7 day lead that's all we're looking for.
  17. Worst part of it is we're going from cold and wet to warmer and wet...not the progression we want right now. Long way to go though...
  18. I've been following/tracking this weekend and haven't said much mainly because these setups do not enthuse me...we don't usually do well down this way with this type of situation. Can we get accumulating snow? Absolutely. Experience over many years tells me to be leery. However, I'm speaking specifically for MY location...I'd feel much better about snow chances closer to the I-81 corridor. I hate cold chasing precip.
