Almost any bourbon barrel aged imperial stout works for me. Great with a roaring fireplace and snow falling. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once this final wave pushes through in a couple hours that should be it. Yup...Garrett County has a Td of 10 so once the dry air eats in we're done fast.

PWC Split Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Finally got back into some better rates after a lull for about an hour. Pavement starting to cave. 3.5 inches. attachment=222203:IMG_1852.JPG]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Snow picked back up here. Driveway slowly caving in. Grass mostly covered, so I'm assuming we have 2.5" of snow. I still think 1-2" in the next 4 hours could be a safe bet, especially judging the snow bands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Beautiful classical arc of snow from Virginia to Maine and beyond. https://radar.weather.gov/Conus/full.php Get screenshots, that radar is a thing of beauty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Nice Currier and Ives scene on lawns, trees and rooftops, without the hassle of snowpacked roads, should be a truly scenic rush hour tonight. This is the most magical of all, beautiful Christmasy snow scenes with just wet roads and a smooth trip home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deck Pic Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Went up to Fort Reno. Really beautiful around here. Only about 1.5 to 2” an hour ago. Unfortunately my phone died like 10 minutes after getting there. Walked around for about an hour. I love snow. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Nice to see the final band intensifying to the west. This one looks to be one of those events that performs right until it shuts down. Hope it holds together on it's way through for all of us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 Just got back from an enjoyable day of Christmas shopping in the snow. Measured 1.75 inches and hoping to hit 2 before it all ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterymix Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 4.25" This winter delivers! We are already ahead of the miserable half a dozen winters during the previous 100 years that gave almost no snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Coming down nicely. Roads and sidewalks finally accumulating with the sun almost set. Cautiously optimistic about 3”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshfsu123 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Up to 1.8 inches now... steady SN with larger flakes. Hopeful that we’ll make it above 2 inches, maybe 2.5, before all said and done. Storm has met my expectations, which was always in the 2-4 inch range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Congrats to all who got snow today. Here, it snowed for about an hour during the midday and I generously measured 0.2" before it sublimated. Now, a line of sharp clearing has moved in and there is a fiery sunset. High temp was 32.

That's been the weirdest thing for me. 3-4" is likely going to be my final total, but the roads are just wet. I remember even for my 2" event last year, the roads caved.

I remember even for my 2" event last year, the roads caved. Roads were 50 degrees in Montgomery 2 days ago...too much stored heat. They're just now dipping down to 32 - 34 degrees. If this went through 8pm with sustain 1"/hr rates it'd be ice city. I've noticed the best way to cool roads is rain with a front followed by good wind and then a cold day...just sucks the heat right out of them.
