I live 30 miles from Deep Creek at the foot of the mountain. We were getting approx. 1 inch and hours, 7 miles east (Summit Mt) was getting 2 inches and hour. Keysers Ridge (24 miles east) was shut down. Emergency vehicles only in Garret Co. $1000 fine if you were out on the roads. Keysers Ridge on east to Cumberland and South to Terra Alta WV and below, is an entirely different world in the winter. I have not quite 24 inches in my yard. North along the ridge has 3 to 4 ft depending on the area. Drifts much higher.

an entirely different world in the winter.No doubt about it. As soon as you climb the Summit south of Uniontown and beyond to Garrett County (Past the Democratic retreat, Nemecolin Woodlands), the difference is like night and day. Ten degrees cooler w/ 3x as much snow. Amazing what a few thousand feet will do.

I live 30 miles from Deep Creek at the foot of the mountain. Beautiful resort area we visited last fall. Got an email report from Wisp which says that they received 48 inches of snow over the weekend.
