12z: 28F/25, light mix, 60/40 PL/ZR-, 1.3".
The accumulated precip is the worst to drive or walk on rn. Mini-glaciers forming.

Yes. I was playing with two of my dogs imfy at ~2345hrs; one jumped a deer, they hit the woods for two hours, and I walked after em. Went back to the board every 50-70 mins so those measurements are up to 10min from a true hourly measurement (even tho that's not the official way to measure anyway. I just like to see hourlies when it's around SN+)

Rhoadesville, VA: final measurement on the board at 0430hrs, 6.3"
Some notable hours and measurements:
2230hrs 11FEB: 1.6"
2330: 2.1"
0030hrs 12FEB: 3.0"
0130: 4.5"
0230: 6.0"
Had significant periods of severely rimed 'flakes' and sig periods of mixed ZR/PL/SN-. Easily lost between 1 to 2 inches of accumulation.
Edit: had steady, accumulating SN/SN- until 0410. A little compaction was noted before the measurement at 0430.
