The weather data for the B & O WINTER Command Simulation has been set. It comes from a weather model that takes the weather for each day from the same date in a corresponding year for which records are available. If the players are trying to predict the weather conditions for their winter campaign, here is the (simulated) weather for the week leading up to the start of the campaign.
It was a white Christmas, with snow falling across the campaign theater on the 25th and in the Valley and Upper Potomac on the 26th as well. The heaviest snow along the B & O. The snow has melted off by New Year's Eve in the Valley and Highlands, but there is still a little left in the Upper Potomac zone. Temperatures were warmer along the river on the 31st though, so the snow is sure to be gone by Day 1 of the campaign. The Valley tended to be a bit warmer and have less precipitation than the other two weather zones.
