Looking more and more likely EVERYBODY is going to get some snow out of this, from Roundtop to Snowshoe. First system is a low pressure moving up the east coast Late Thurs-Fri which could dump significant snow from the piedmont of Virginia, WV, MD and into PA. Very good news for Massanutten, Wintergreen, Liberty, Roundtop & Whitetail. Could be anywhere from 6-12". Second event will be as the upper low pulls in behind it the main system this weekend. This will cause upslope snow giving the mtns of NC, VA and the Alleghenies of WV, MD & PA more snow. Most likely light snow and flurries south of Snowshoe, but north of Snowshoe possibly another foot of snow. Either way, looks like everybody is going to come out of this one a winner. I'll update again later tonight or tomorrow if things change.
