Snow Contest!

As we round the corner into the last half of November, thoughts begin turning to the holidays, family gatherings, spiked hot cocoa, and the Snow Contest! Last winter we finally broke the snow drought, and though the forecasts for this winter are not very encouraging, we all know that doesn’t mean much. As a matter of fact, there is currently a Winter Storm Watch for Garrett county for late this week where up to a foot of snow and blizzard conditions are expected. So, although I have low overall expectations this year, I am always hopeful that we will luck into at least a few weeks of real winter and a few decent snow chances.

Presently, there isn’t anything definitive on any models for our area, but I am hoping to get off to an early start and picking December 8th, at 7PM, for our first inch of snow at BWI airport. As always, don’t read anything into my pick because it really is just a guess, and even more, a prayer to get a Monday off of school. To make your guess, just follow the link below to this year’s Snow Contest. Good luck!
