Itstrainingtime Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Maytown: 36.3 with a 80/20 rain/snow mix according to Mrs. Training Work: 35.4 with a 50/50 mix MU: they're currently reporting 40 and I'd assume all rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saw this map - I can tell you with certainty that in Lanco, based on my driving this morning, that is pretty much spot on! Higher hills of southern Lanco (including work) are getting some wet snow, and also the higher elevations of northern Lanco, but a lot of rain elsewhere.

Same here. 37 in akron and 35 in etown. Slushbombs mixing in here in etown, but mostly rain... meh.... Get your tickets for the last chance to ride the snow train for this Saturday. Morning GFS is already showing signs of folding for that one (here in LSV) as it's a mostly rain to backend snow showers deal....and we know how that works down here. Norther/westers look to get a last chance shellackin. Happy for them (and me as fortunately I'll be in clearfield/houtzdale area this weekend), so I hope to get to play one more time in the snow. What a shitty winter for us in the LSV. No way to polish that turd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 About one half inch on the ground just a half mile up the mountain from me. Blue Ridge has snow on side roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount Joy Snowman Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Sitting at 36 here and despite a good 20 minutes now of heavy wet snow nothing is able to stick to any surfaces. Wet ground and warm temps just won't allow for it around here. As @Itstrainingtime mentioned, Lancaster County really is the battleground with varying conditions all around the county. But bottom line is minimal to no accumulation will be the result. Heck, not even my north facing mulch bed is taking it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drover over Chickies about 45 minutes ago - snowing very hard on top of the hill with zero rain mixed near the summit, but nothing visible on the ground even at the top.

It's one of the higher spots along Chickies Ridge, sitting at ~700'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool site Peakbagger is a great site. No I haven't been to that exact spot, which is right near the point where Lancaster, Lebanon and Berks Counties all meet, but I have been to some other high spots up in the Furnace Hills. A buddy and I once backpack camped up there on a high hill then hiked down to fish for opening day trout (believe it was Hammer Creek). We were probably at ~1,000 feet. Beautiful area up that way, as @GrandmasterB knows all too well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool site I grew up one town next (Ephrata) and this was my stomping grounds. My bro's inlaws live on peartown rd (next road) SE of this location. When I was a competative cyclist, I trained on those roads/hills. Some real gut wrenching climbs to be had. Small compared to big woods, but steep as heck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can report back that, sure enough, there is at least a solid inch on the ground on top of Chickies at ~700', whereas I only have a trace down here in the lowlands. Snowing a little harder with a lower temp as well, as expected. The top of the cell tower was very obscured. Nothing on the basketball court but believe it or not the little side road leading up to the park was caving, enough that I even slid a little coming down it ha. Well, that is my most exhilarating and likely final winter moment for this season. It's a sad life I lead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Grass and other surfaces from Tamaqua to Hazleton are white. Roads just wet, except up in Hazleton where some bridges are slushing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
