Mount Joy Snowman

THV hit -1. National low was only -8 at Presque Isle, ME.

10 when I left the house but hit 1 on the car therm through the rurals. Also .2” of daily snowfall.

Oh wow nice. Not nearly that much here but you could see it diminishing quickly on the radar as it worked its way east so not surprising.

A beautiful light snowfall occurring as I sit at 20 degrees. Nothing better than unexpected snow.

Alright, so when do we get the shirtless @sauss06 pics?

Low of 14. Winter, it is here.

I second this haha. We have a couple, how shall I say, “characters” on the board these days. They need to learn how to assimilate.

My 3.3” of snowfall melted down to .28” liquid. Temp has dropped to 25 here. Quite the winter day on tap.

Well, I managed to hit the Over, as 3.3” fell here at KMJS. Beautiful scene out there due to the sticky nature of the snow. Current temp of 27 is the low. I’ll melt down and report back later on qpf. A nice little event for most of us!

We are well under way here at KMJS. Temp 33 and dropping. All surfaces lightly frosted. Feeling good about how things are developing. Good luck to all!

Nothing better than an event that starts with low expectations and then ramps up towards game time. Might have to up my O/U to 3”.

Low of 22. I’m setting the Over/Under at 2” for KMJS tonight. I think I go a smidge over. Looking forward to seeing flakes fly tonight. Cheers to everyone!

Only because I haven't seen it posted yet......

Great post and so true. I would emphasize that the first half or three quarters of the pack goes a LOT quicker than the last part due to heavy compaction resulting from lower density. I've seen countless times where that last 4-6" hangs on way longer than you'd expect due to the extremely dense icy nature of the pack. As you alluded to, sleet mixed in helps greatly but also the pack itself creates its own icy center due to the daily melt and refreeze cycle. I know you know all this; I just love this topic ha.

Yes I know, just interjecting myself into someone else’s conversation haha. Just wanted to reiterate how close the two cabins were. All good. Also, some stray flurries flying here. The kids are excited ha.
