Amped Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 As of 3:50, laurel summit reporting 18.1 inches. That's sick. One of the few places that got over 1/3 of what was expected from this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I really should have gone to the laurel mountains...I was just pressed for time....my chase...was well....ummm...not spectacular though I did experience falling snow in late April, made a couple snowballs and took a few pics...I will post in a bit FWIW...I had GPS elevation and USGS elevation so.....mixing was generally above 1200'....snow on the ground above 1500' depending where you were....it was mostly snow pellets, grains and flakes from 1700' to 1850'....that was the highest I got........unfortunately I couldnt spend much time on Catoctin mountain because I was hounded by Park Police....I did park for a minute in a no parking zone to get a few pics of snow nearby, but had no idea it was adjacent to a classified area. (Camp David)...got a citation...I am "in the system" according to the guy.....When I told him I was a weather enthusiast chasing snow it was actually snowing at the time, but he looked at me like I was crazy...whatever...he was just doing his job...the 1st guy to chase me away was an a-ss, but the park ranger was cool...All in all a failed chase, but fun to check out a few local areas....Catoctins are cool..I spent a lot of time there as a kid.... you should have pulled up your cwg bio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 It was a warning...I just didn't like the "You are now in the system" language...whatever that means....which is probably nothing Pretty much any citation means you are "in the system" these days. I would assume it's nothing like you said, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

843wx Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Enough snow to close Skyline Drive for at least part of the day today. Reports of 3-5 inches at the highest points like Big Meadows. http://wtvr.com/2012/04/23/weather-snow-closes-skyline-drive/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeoman Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 It was a warning...I just didn't like the "You are now in the system" language...whatever that means....which is probably nothing Probably means there will be 3 guys with a straight jacket waiting for you when you depart from your house tomorrow for driving 2 hours to see a snowflake.

usedtobe Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 nice. on a side note: where are the pics from laurel summit? im skeptical... There are some impressive pictures in the central PA thread. I'm not sure it looks like 23 but it sure looks like double digits and it's still snowing at the time of the picture. I think the they had more than one big report.

snowfan Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 With seven springs reporting totals in the 18-20" range, I'd accept the Laurel Summit totals. I believe Laurel Summit is on the same general ridge line as 7 springs, but about 15-20 miles further up the line. nice. on a side note: where are the pics from laurel summit? im skeptical...

TalcottWx Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 these were all at 1700' just west of Catoctin Mountain except for the purple flowers which was at 1500' or so...In the pic of the car it is actually ripping snow pretty good but it is hard to tell....this was pretty much the scene everywhere above 1600' or so....the cars were quite a bit more covered on the ridge at 1850', but didnt get a chance to snap some pics....pretty meh, but cool for 4/23...the car was running 2-3 degrees too warm, so I think it was 33-34 probably Awesome zwyts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
