I'm currently at the base lot at blue mt ski area.

3.5" in lot with mod. snow falling.

had sleet snow mix when I left qtown.

sleet snow mix at abe turnpike exit.

all snow about 4 miles north.

no radar posting.

I'm out of the office, ski day.

Enjoy! That warm air aloft made it pretty far north as of 7am.

This is not offcial....its 15F out there and I am on my first cup of coffee. Pow Pow has returned to the Poconos for the second weekend in a row. Thus far we are passing through 3 inches. Its not what I would describe as S+ but its very fine powder that appears to be accumulating an inch an hour.

Right now is the most intense I have seen since I stumbled down the stairs.

The 3-6 or 3-5 forecast range for this area seems to be spot on, though the duration if extended could push us past 5-6. I have not looked at anything beyond this thread. Need to pack up the skiers and gear, clean off truck and drink more coffee.

Man, I'm both jealous of and excited for you... Enjoy the slopes, shaping up to be an epic day for skiing...

Moderate snow in Lancaster about 3.5 of snow. Temp is 24. So far no mixing.

Exactly what i have. The snow was very light at 4:30 this morning when i had the puppy out but has picked up some since then. Looks like one more nice batch to go, moving in from south western Pa.
