Winter in Garrett, autumn here
The Winter Weather Advisory in Garrett County continues until noon today, with more snow due in the wake of 4-to-5 inches of lake-effect flakes overnight. Frostburg got a 2.5-inch dusting, too, as the WeatherBug web cam image above shows. Check out this radar loop showing lake-effect precip.
Garrett Countians can expect snow showers to continue this morning, with 3 to 5 inches of new accumulation in the higher elevations as winds sweep around the west side of the big low that caused all the ruckus. That storm is now far up in eastern Canada, but it is still bringing us cold, blustery winds. Winds will be gusting to 25 mph before diminishing this afternoon.
Back here on the lowlands, it's still autumn. Today will be the coolest of the next seven, with a
high around 50 degrees if the forecast holds up. From here forward, high pressure will build in, skies will be sunnier and stay that way right through the weekend. Daytime highs will return to near 60 degrees, only a few degrees below normal for this time of year in Baltimore.
But winter has arrived for the north country, with more snow due today and tonight in upstate New York, northwest Pennsylvania. Here, at right, is AccuWeather.com's snow forecast map for today.
