It has been! It’s weird not being able to go anywhere. I forgot what that feels like. Not that I have anywhere to be but I just would like the option to be available :lol:

Our place got hit flush with the entire streamer. Place completely caved and all the work to clear the snow for our complex ended in coverage. It was a nice way to end a beautiful winter day.  ^_^

That was an impressive streamer that came down through Washington and Frederick counties.

That puts me at exactly 4" on the day. Could of been more. Was at work all day and just measured. I'm sure there was some compaction going on. I'll go with 4"

Hoping some of those streamers up in PA can make it down here

Paging @jonjon @nj2va

you guys have a lotta experience up in the mountains.  Tomorrow I could go ski up at whitegrass in Canaan valley, you think driving up there tomorrow morning in a 4wd crv with just regular tires (not snow tires) would be ok?

Yeah, I think you’d be ok if you’re comfortable driving in snow. This stuff is so fluffy / high ratio that I think you’d be fine. If you’re nervous you could take the “long” way on interstate 68 then down 219 to Canaan vs going up through WV. I think MD does better with the roads than WV but should be ok. It’s gonna be COLD with blowing winds that will pose hazardous at times due to blowing snow.

I was out earlier in the afternoon and despite the snow roads were just wet. Since the sun has gone down everything that was wet earlier is now frozen. The wind didn't dry things before sunset, meaning there's a lot of moisture on surfaces still.

My road, which has been plowed multiple times and was bare but wet earlier, is pretty iffy now. There's gonna be tons of black ice so if you go out this evening be careful.
