Max temps occuring pre dawn in many areas. Strong winds. Few peaks of sun early. Mainly cloudy. Very light precip, fog at dusk.

Wind gust 45+ on Cabin Mt.

Snowfall on the season is above normal across North America, but encroachment into the lower 48 has been slow over the past 10 days and has brought that above average down. Coverage should increase in the following week. 3rd pic is observed snowfall on the season.

Day started off mainly clear. Pretty big temp inversions in the Wv mts. Teens to 30s. Se breezes through the day giving a cold feel to a good portion of the area. High cloud deck built and lowered later in the day. The morning inversions allowed Snowshoe to make snow at the base, but not on top.

3km nam performed very well. NWS forecast was fair, but still misses how the setup works.  -3 Canaan Heights +3 Bitt 2NW valley

Few things of interest- Southern Cabin Mt at Bald at 4350′ ran warmer, and +8 vs northern Cabin Mt. Wind direction was reading SW vs SE at Northern Cabin.

Not sure if Savage Mt broke 40° today. Some spots in Garret may held upper 30s.

Overcast across majority of the mts with the high Alleghenies in the fog. Temps in the upper 20s across the high Alleghenies, and snuck into the low 30s in the southern high Alleghenies late day with a little clearing while north remained cloudy. Few breaks very late in Garrett. Southern Alleghenies had a little snow, flakes about into midday. As the fog lifted, it left a nice coat of rime. As seen in pics at Snowshoe, and in Canaan cam, off on Cabin to Porte Crayon if you look close.

The day began with colder air in eastern Garrett County and some of the valleys off the east and North east.. Spotty freezing rain leaving isolated traces. Super Swiss Hd and 3km Nam hinted at this and done well. Further west and wv high ground, conditions were slightly milder. Light spotty rain, and fog was the issue. Fog was very thick at times today in these areas. Wv high ground fell to freezing afternoon and late day. Likely forming some rime. Further north, temps hovered upper 30s, low 40s and fell off at dusk.

High clouds to start. Colder valleys vs high ground. 3km nam did well on the temps again. East of mts held cool, mts held steady. Mild push into Garrett with temps there falling more after dark vs high Wv ground. Clouds building in late day. Dew points rather low today throughout.  Risk of a light trace of ice exist tonight in valleys of Garrett, and east, northeast.

Snowmaking hours to date Wisp 48(none used), Snowshoe 41,(maximized)

High broken very thin clouds pushing in pre dawn. Light southern winds also pre dawn. Wv high ground reached their min temps hours before daybreak. Southeasterly breezes during the day kept Garrett colder than areas south. Illustrated in pics. 3km nam is once again near perfect hitting that setup. Snowmaking continued at Snowshoe all day despite temps creeping above feeezing, wet bulb/dew points very low yet. Seven Springs continued as well. Wisp was the coldest resort today, and will be again tonight, then moderation occurs tomorrow until Garrett north and east go below freezing tomorrow night until Monday morning.

High temps were midnight temps. Temps fell the greatest from predawn to 10am then stabilized to rising a few and dropping again at dark. Spotty snowshowers were light and scattered and skiffs occured here and there. A fair amount of sun occured throughout the day.

Seven Springs, Snowshoe began snow making.

November 9th snow extent vs last year. Much much much ahead of where the North America snow extent was last year on this date. Actually the greatest snow extent for the date since the graph began in 02’… The northern hemisphere as a whole is in the upper echelon of snow extent for the date out of the past 12.
