Ground temps, water temps, ramps

Ground temps vary location to location, sunny spot to shady spot. In the pines, the ground is still frozen at 1″ depth. Solid. In a shady area that is grass and typically wet soil. At 1 inch, the ground is still yet frozen.. My dad moved some shiitake mushroom logs today, the shady location they are located, they were still frozen to the ground. In a more sunny spot, woods location, at a 2″ depth, soil temp read 42°.  This is a location for ramps that are not up yet. Although many WV reports of ramps up and 2,3,4″ high.

Glade Run at Bittinger 2nw Valley water temp read 44.1° mid afternoon. I want to check this location Monday a.m after some cold weather to see the change.

A good running spring read 47.3° and this be generally only fluctuates 1° throughout the year. All water temp data collected with a hobo mx2304 logger.

Some other pics, to note, one location still holds snow through today. Making 136 straight days.

Overall mostly cloudy skies, few brief morning showers. Today will be the first day since Nov 6th(142days if my math is correct) that Bittinger 2nw Valley failed to fall below 40°. High likelihood some of the snow covered pockets did yet.

Clouds and a early flake or 2. Windy. A good drifting event as seen from pics  Turned into a mostly sunny day. Open areas melted down, north facing and shaded areas did not.

Temp profile this afternoon

Radar- I circled in the northern Garrett area in  the Bittinger 2nw Valley area that repeatedly got the heavy periods last night 7pm to 12am.

Snowfall- Bittinger 2nw Valley 3/23/19 7am. Picked up 2.5″ overnight. This occured mainly between 7pm and 12am. Repeated rounds of heavy snow, whiteouts at times. Strong winds. This on top the 2.1 through 6pm last night that had the rapid 1.5 yesterday from 1:15-2pm (no boardsweep, only checking the rate) another .6 through 6pm. At 10am before I left I did a few overall depth checks on ground and multiple snow boards. The ground gave a touch more, but uniform and close to the nearly equal 4.3″ on the multiple snowboards. The 2.1, and 2.5″ had one board sweep at 6pm last night. Being a sheltered location, no snow blew away or in and settling is reduced. This amount is a touch higher than local amounts, but radar and photos of snow and drifting help verify the 4.6″ overall total.

Satellite (snowfall visible today. And look at that area that was circled on the radar. Near Bittinger 2nw Valley. Showing up well on Satellite)
