Snowshoe village should get 20"+.  They open wednesday.  I assume the workers will ski it tomorrow and this weekend since they're already preparing?

Off topic, but every time you post I think it’s me because my deck is in your pic :lol:

Looks like a squall line moving thru central WV on radar. 

EDIT- checked cameras near Beckley, pouring!

That was our first real squall and it was awesome. Wish I could post a video...I'm probably around 1.5" now. Very light but nearly constant snow since around 8 am. Plows are out - come on up!

OK, NWS had my spot at a 40% chance of 0.1 or greater, accomplished. That 10 minute squall dropped 0.2 inches (YES, I measured LOL) so will be a new snowfall record beating 1981's 'T'. Temp dropped from 40.0 to 35.4 and had two 33 mph gusts during.  Still a light snow/flurries and 35.4/29.0. High was 42.0 around noon when the sun broke out for about 30 minutes. EDIT- that measurement was off the deck, don't even have the snowboards out yet!

Snow depth sensors for the Mason Dixon mesonet sites are now turned on for the season. Maps available here: mesonet.umd.edu

NOTE: It's a new feature so any feedback is appreciated.

As an FYI for everyone using this, the snow depth sensors are only accurate to about +/- half an inch. So use your common sense if it's just starting to stick and it says zero OR it says 0.3" and it's raining. We're working on better QA/QC to try and make those kinds of errors happen less often; but as we know, snow depth is about the hardest thing to measure accurately. In addtion, it's only measuring ONE point on the ground, it doesn't know the difference between a drift and a scour.
