Period of moderate snow early, then lighter, but mainly on most of the day. Late afternoon it mixed with freezing drizzle at times. Despite low precip rates, snow accumulated .4″ today. Heavy cloud cover limiting solar radiation and from 10am on temps holding 20s allowed for that. Further south in Canaan, snow appeared lighter. Further south, Snowshoe and through Pocahontas, Greenbrier it ramped up much higher.

2 years to date since the very impressive upslope event in the Alleghenies with Canaan leading the way with over a foot and a half of snow. I would estimate 20+” above 4000″.

Cloudy, rainy, dreary day. Cool air hung tough. Late day skies broke and warm punch progressed. 3km nam did excellent again on temp setup.

With the 3km nam doing so well on temp setup, it actually resembled setup more accurately than the rtma analysis, so here is a snippet from 3km nam today

Temp profile nationally this afternoon

Rainfall today across northern Garrett ranged in the .75 to 1 range. That along with a high water content snow melt, was enough to send small creeks out of their banks.
