    Yes…I’m squarely under it. It’s been around 2-3” per hour most of the night. Began at 8:30 last night and have ~27 inches (that may be conservative).

    Man I wish this was DC! Barnes Corners NY. The truck was clean at midnight and the homeowner (I’m in an airbnb) has had a plow come by twice already. Estimating 27” so far.

    I’m in New York chasing the LES off Ontario but a bone chilling -8.5 at home in Mountain Lake Park (close to the -8.9 during the Dec ‘22 cold snap)

    I’m in Barnes Corners for this LES event. Fortunately, under a meso discussion for 2-3” per hour rates. It’s verifying - great storm so far. Let’s see if I can stay under this band.

    85.4 in Mountain Lake Park. 13.5” from yesterdays storm and quite heavy upslope.

    @jonjon wonder how you've fared today. I'm up to 8.6" so far, but the sun is poking out from behind the clouds so things are winding down from the synoptic system. We should have some more upslope tonight, however. Temp down to 17.8.
  7. katabatic
    Exactly. I wouldn't be surprised if we got 5" in 2 hours. I just walked around my lil hood happy as can be. Did decide to head up to the northern Tug Hill after all this evening (give our plows a chance to do their thing) - been talking with some of the NY crew. Looks legit off of Lake Ontario.

    @nj2va what a great storm! I am over 8" for the day. Your maze looks amazing, what fun! 19.6 degrees here - best part of today is no wind to speak of.

    Latest runs also cut back quite a bit on QPF here in the highlands. I also canceled my LES chase this morning as it looks like the bands' forecast continue to inch northward. Not worth the chance of getting skunked for the kind of money airbnb charges. Good news it's still going to snow and the Commanders game was a thrill.

    I'm always a little behind you in these setups. Still light rain here, 34.9. The hubby is working a double shift at Wisp today (14 hours omg)...at least he has tomorrow and Monday off. He said today was absolutely wild with the crowds. You guys heading to the slopes this weekend?

    Hope you made it home and then here to Deep Creek in good shape Rain today sucked but fortunately we're back in the deep freeze tonight.

    Yes you did in 2022 but that link is no longer active. Would you kindly send me another link?

    15.6 at midnight but 39.2 now. Was nearly 40 yesterday as well. Snowpack has really compacted in the last few days. Looks to be a decent shot tomorrow here with 6-8 or so. Getting things packed today to head up to NY's Tug Hill tomorrow to see if I can win at the LES chase.

    I'm hoping that at the beginning of the week at least it's stable irt wind direction. Just reserved a house near Worth Center, NY (Tug Hill) for 5 nights beginning Sunday in hopes of chasing a big LES event. Earlier models showed it being further south, so needed to adjust. Always a gamble when your 'storm' is 10 miles wide but if you nail it, oh boy is it awesome.

    Low of 22.8 with a solid coating of ZR after 6" of snow yesterday.
  16. katabatic
    LOL it's like you are a native to GC! I'm proud of Mountain Lake Park's one stop light. AND we are getting a new Shop 'n Save, so take THAT D.C. I think the lowlands will have a bit of a boom with this one. Nothing that you'll need a snow blower for, but the fact you're getting flurries now before the show gets going is a very good sign.

    Very light snow started a few minutes ago. It's interesting how low key people are about snow here vs MoCo where I used to live. There wasn't but a handful of folks at the WalMart in Oakland this morning and we are under a WSW. I know we get a lot more snow but still kinda funny.
  18. katabatic
    Low of 4.3 right around midnight, up to 14 now. Waiting for the first flakes...with the temp rising, wonder if there'll be mixing issues lol.
  19. katabatic
    This is a potent lil system with good lift and a respectable amount of moisture to wring out overhead. You'll do very well, as usual. Hit 15.1 for a hi here today and now down to 11.7. Winds are dying down, so temps will probably tank early and then slowly rise as the clipper gets closer.
  20. katabatic
    There looks to be the potential for some big time LES totals, especially off of Ontario next week. I'm heading to Redfield to try and capture at least some of it and would be interested to hear your take on the setup as it gets closer. Is the Western NY crowd active at all anymore?
  21. katabatic
    Next week looks bitter. For a few days, 2 degrees may feel good lol. My P&C in MLP says -9 Monday night. But, for a while, I've been eyeing getting a place up on the Tug Hill for next week. Just pulled the trigger since there is the potential for an epic LES event...at least what the GFS is selling. Well, F it, I bought it and found a hotel outside of Redfield, NY at about 1,300' with WiFi (can do a little work) to scratch that itch. Free cancellation until 1/18 so if the forecast falls apart, there's that in the back pocket. Absolutely in seventh heaven with this winter so far.

    Low of 4.5 this morning after 4.3" last night. WSW up for tomorrow (map above) for 6-8"+. A recent Buffalo AFD mentioned after the next blast of pure arctic air, Erie will likely freeze, cutting off a good part of our recent gravy train (about 25% coverage now).
  23. katabatic
    It's intense. I'm now over 4 inches and temp dropped to 11.5. Based on upstream radar and squalls in the area, could easily hit 6 inches. Definitely an overperformer.
  24. katabatic
    Nice little snowstorm. Right at 2" since this afternoon and continues to come down steadily. Still 14.7 degrees.
  25. katabatic
    Light snow began about an hour ago. 14.7 degrees currently.
