  1. 10/10 for sunrise today. Stunning oranges, pinks, and purples.
  2. LWX map…I like the 1” call for MBY, which would get me to climo for the year…pretty awesome.
  3. A friend of ours asked me this same question recently - but for us, we bought at Deep Creek 5 years ago because we liked having the lake in the summer and winter weather (in addition to the hiking/etc). There’s just way more to do year round having the lake right there in my opinion. And Canaan doesn’t get 2x for every storm - they certainly kill it with upslope but averaging 110” vs 180” isn’t a big deal IMO (if it was 40” vs 180”, sure that’s another story) - I got 18” from the weekend storm vs 20” at your location. I’m not sure I would have noticed the difference…::shrug:: YMMV ETA: forgot to say, if the sole reason is skiing, definitely agree that Canaan/Timberline is far and beyond (and its not even close) a better option than Wisp. I suck at skiing so Wisp is good for me as I'm doing pizza down the hill lol
  4. I’d love a 4p start or Monday being a holiday. Always a drag the next day at work.
  5. One doesn’t speak of said storm in the MA forum
  6. Oh sweet mother of God, please let that map verify.
  7. Wisp reporting 16”. Light snow still falling but it won’t accumulate much here.
  8. Definitely a big step towards a Euro like solution.
  9. Even if the ICON showed a flush hit, I’d still ignore it. Same with the NAM (which sht the bed for this weekend’s event).
  10. These wild card games have sucked for the most part. Hopefully divisional round is more exciting.
  11. Glad you chased for this one! Definitely a memorable storm.
  12. Earlier today - like how you can see the wind swirling the snow off the roof.
  13. I’ll be honest in that tonight is the first I’ve looked at this but thats another solid jump from 12z scrolling back.
  14. I’m waiting for warm nose to chime in before getting invested
  15. @DDweatherman and @Fozz need to chase to Garrett County for every storm…y’all brought the mojo I guess and helped us boom even more than I thought we’d get here.
  16. Yeah, actually had an hour or two where snow stopped and sun broke through the clouds late this afternoon. Winds picked back up the last two hours and back to SN/SN-. Such an awesome storm.
  17. I’ll have to trust yours and mdhokie since its impossible to get reliable measurements with the wind. I have 12” on the driveway but that’s after compaction and with the wind blowing it off to drifts on the side so that sounds about right. Yeah its literally another world here. Friends visiting still are in awe when they cross the border into the county on 68 and conditions immediately change.
  18. Pure CO powder out there. If conditions are like this here with near blizzard conditions, I gotta imagine Jon Jon and Chris21 are getting hammered at Canaan with the higher elevation that cranks out the upslope even more. Such an awesome storm for the mountains. Fozz is getting treated to ideal ski conditions right now — we decided to just chill at the house by the fire lol. A few pictures from outside shoveling a bit ago:
  19. Curious how it is too - we’re on the fence about skiing today with these insane conditions.
  20. Winds howling into the 40s (had an earlier gust to 54). Midnight high of 26 before winds switched out of the NW. Currently 20 after a morning low of 18. Upslope kicking in - hopefully another 3-6” today/tonight which would push totals into the 14-16”+ range. I love the layering of the snow up against the slider. Heading out later for a walk and will take some pictures.
