First note- I accidentally deleted the saved daily videos from Northern Garrett, Allegany High. Weatherbug does not archive cams. I did accidentally freeing up storage space for videos at Spruce Knob.

Rain overnight, moderate and steady. This changed to snow prior to daybreak in Wv mts, in Garrett early morning. Very foggy at times. Some rime as well across the Wv high ground as temps held 20s on top all day.
Bittinger 2nw Valley
Moderate rain overnight. Just over 1″ since yesterday
Rain switched to little ice balls shortly after 7am, then to a period of mid morning snow. Seeing the conditions in the Wv high ground I opted to go there and for the first time all winter rely on a ob not took myself. That said the ob is reliable.
New snowfall of .2″ that came and rapidly melted
Snowfall season to date 71.5″
