I know im not in davis, but here in Philippi (2000') Snowing all day...Still snowing....ground is white,(maybe 1/2" - 1") truck is covered, driveway is starting to get white on the edges...the ground is still way to warm...
I dont know what they are predicting locally, but the weather channel said 3-6. They are usually really low or really high, never right on...
An update for everyone rottin for me to flip the switch-
It'd be a miracle- Only 38 here. But it is spitting snow. Up to a trace possible here. I do have full expectations to do it this week. Im headed to the shoe tomorrow to hit that 8" in their cast
Then there is the possibility that I can make snow afterwards if not done tonight. The clouds are keeping it warm here, but then again, those clouds are bringing the snow.
Im torn.
7inches of snow at Hidden Valley.
I will have a TR at the end of the day;).
6 1/2 inches on my porch this morning in Canaan. Still snowing hard with more on the way. Roads were snow covered
as of 5:30
The news that it was snowing at the shoe brought a big grin
to my face on the commute home last night. This morning I woke up to big wet snow flakes falling in the Shenandoah Valley near Skyline Drive. I'm off today; I wouldn't even have to call in sick to go skiing.
I am sitting here in class watching the snow fall in pittsburgh, i so cant wait to ski!!!!
My gear is my car as soon as 11:30 comes I am heading up.
Josh who is grinning from ear to ear and getting alot of weird looks from his classmates but they just dont understand, how happy he really is.
Hope I don't regret it but I'm waiting for tomorrow. It should remain cold and continue to snow today in the higher elevations. Tomorrow will start to warm up but early it should be good. Chip's report is not coming up today and my email call to him has not been answered. I wonder if his server is down. My wife's business lost their website and email yesterday; the server is in FL.
The sods webcam is painfully slow and not worth much because it doesn't show the ground. I think I remember a better one last year, that viewed T'line, CV and WG from Canaan Heights. I foolishly did not bookmark it. Anyone have the link? Meanwhile the site I am relying on is;

Hey Denis, this snow will add an interesting dimension to "trail work" at whitegrass.
Denis:
Chip's web site must be down because I keep checking it for info. If you end up calling him, can you give us a report on Whitegrass conditions?
John
I should have thought of that John but didn't. I don't make calls like that on a govt. phone, I use my cell. However the cell is packed with my ski stuff in Burke at the VRE station. Based upon that doppler radar loop that I posted earlier it looks good, so I will probably give it a go.
Denis, A couple of us from TTips are planning on a early AM drive to see about a little touring and skiing also. What are your plans?
Plans? Hey man, I'm a skier. (Paraphrasing Chip on organization) My only plan is to call Chip in the AM. If he isn't there or can't ski, I'll strike out on my own, probably from CV because it holds snow better than TL. If Chip is not there and the barbed wire is up I would not go on his property.
