It sucked shoveling that snow off of a driveway about half that size, both back in 2009 and this past Monday...primarily because I'm 15 years older than you. (My wife also gets that same look, post shoveling!) In fairness, neighbor few doors away did bring his snowblower by on Monday to help. -

Really pulling for y'all in this sub for this coming weekend...I know this past Monday didn't turn out quite as expected. -
Love seeing WxStar & IntelliStar jogging together...I was doing that earlier in the week.

Telegraph Road is one of the few major roads in our parts that has been properly plowed, and then only minimally...roads in our subdivision got their first (single!) pass late yesterday, IF that, but at that point they were barely scraping the top layer of multiple layers of compacted snow/ice set in place Mon nite. I'm the first one to honk if FCPS closes for the threat of a flurry, but this is the worst I've ever seen the roads around Hayfield post-snowstorm...I'll be legit shocked if FCPS doesn't close tomorrow as well.

Low of 21, winds picking up. No plows yet here, but someone was obviously doing donuts in the cul de sac...

My storm total is right around 9" with this last go-round...which puts me right in the middle of the forecasted range. I'm good.

Oddly enough (for our corner of SE FfxCo), it's not really let up here since daybreak, vacillating between light to mod snow, and only had pingers in the 7-8am hour. Rates are picking back up again here.

27/21, -SN, sitting at 6.8" so far.
-
Set up Mon AM reports to run, stare out office window at +SN, download finished reports....rinse & repeat (for past hour).

5.5", 27/21. Was about a 75%/25% pinger-to-pixie dust mix when I went out to clean off the wx station at the top of the hour, but turning back to all SN as rates pick up again.

First flurries...31/21.

Ahhhhh...Short Pump. Or, to use it more properly...."Man, we were TOTALLY 'Short Pump'ed' in this latest storm!"
