Interstate Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 2 minutes ago, vastateofmind said: Humans (at least in this forum) aren't the only ones who love to stare at the snow...although in fairness, Kona is also stalking backyard squirrels. Also, I never tire of looking at snow-blasted trees...ever. Currently 30, went from pixie dust during the 7-10 a.m. timeframe, and it's been steady SN since around then. Could not possibly ask for a more perfect or beautiful winter day. My god... What is in that shed that you need barbwire for? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 3 minutes ago, North Balti Zen said: I will answer for psu- his area and adjacent areas have missed any big ones for several years now while the immediate south has cashed. SHHH they think fringed isn't a real thing. But in the long run we will do better. I had a nice event in Dec that most missed. But my big advantage is in marginal temp storms, not setups like this. You win some you lose some, but yea its been a rough couple of years up here. 2022 was actually decent down south but up here it was way below avg. Hope people remember this when I get some 12" wet snow bomb in March that is mostly rain in DC and they don't come up here with pitchforks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVsnowlover Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 DC is going to get annihilated here in around 30 min or so. That band looks legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmk Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Under the band that just popped up in NW PWC - Heavy snow, large blustery flakes. My neighbor just snowblowed and the driveway has re-caved in the last 30 mins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know exactly what he means though. I had almost 6" on the 6th when Westminster had basically nothing... those are where the geography/location flourish.

Would be great if it’s on to something and my area can play catchup on accumulations. Oddly consistent this morning with such a narrow band. 3k NAM shows the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few others have asked about that over the years. My property backs to the U.S. Coast Guard's Navigation Center in Alexandria...essentially the nerve center for all of the CG's IT/IS services, hence the gov't issued fence topped with barbed wire lining my land's back edge, with scary signs pointed at our side of the fence stating, "US Government Property - NO TRESPASSING." 12 minutes ago, Solution Man said: Short Pump looks prime though "Short Pump!"
