I thought a fun activity for the day would be to provide updates on the snow accumulation in Carroll County today (January 16th). I will be checking the weather and stepping outside to take snow measurements and take photos or videos for the readers. If you would like to provide photos…send them to scott@scotteblog.com and just let me know the time of the photo and the location (in Carroll County or Howard County) and I will share here in this post or on the Blog social media accounts (Facebook | Twitter | Instagram)
Follow Updates Below:
2:30am on the 17th: All of the snow..then sleet…has now turned to rain and starting to melt the some of the snow away.
6:25pm: Latest snow photos from Finksburg. Guessing around 2 inches so far. I will get more precise measurements later this evening:

So snow is getting closer. I will check again in about an hour.
