  1. Was driving back home south on 15. Of course absolute parking lot but got some pea sized hail and lightning. The older kid who came back home for some appts and I were geeking out!!! Just got home and there is still lightning and thunder.
  2. Yeah the only way my driveway is going to cave is when what is on the solar panels decides to rapid melt. Actually just happened and freaked the cat out who is laying on my other daughters bed.
  3. Just took the kid to her job at the skate rink. We have this beautiful restored bank barn in our neighborhood, with a walking path down to Ballenger Creek. The amount of snow just lining the branches and the clear path made for a put my car in park and grab the iPhone for a couple of shots. Now we just wait for the solar panel avalanche that will happen as when I drove into the garage I can see the panels heating up and the snow slipping.
  4. I am no Met. But these last two snows to me are like what we get in late March Early April. You get that heavy wet snow that by the end of the day is gone. I am not a subscriber to that furry hormone driven woodchuck and his shadow. But for those who are he agrees with your last sentence as do I.
  5. Eyeballing from 3 levels up 2.5”-3” of heavy wet snow..
  6. Yep just looked outside again. Deck fully covered as well as grassy surfaces. The street is finally caving after the HOA snow contractor dumped a whole seas worth of salt down. Was like driving on pop rocks there was so much.
  7. Just looked outside. Blowing snow curtains going on here. Oh and I am listening to my Pandora Thunderstorm station so pretending I have thunder snow.
  8. I know! But she would have missed the 1 am fire alarm for burnt food in her dorm hall had she come home. Got to weigh out the college experience over some snow. Rough call.
  9. Oldest kid down in DC at school asked me to send video so she could see the snow. She is missing out on this one.
  10. And it has started. Just heard the sirens for this as I am close. Horrible merge area. Everyone even in dry weather treats it as a speed ramp and not a merge. 7:17 am / VEHICLE ACCIDENT W / ROLLOVER / FREDERICK: @ RT340EB / RT15 (JEFFERSON): IAO TG: 9_DELTA Disp: RS20, M20, A209, E201, EB_ASGNMT3, A149, E141, WB_ASGNMT1, BAT903, EMS901 - Listen live at
  11. Snow has really picked up here now. Just got the text of the re-evaluating of the 2 hr delay. Schools are now closed for FCPS MD.
  12. We actually got a text from FCPS MD stating that they don’t have enough information yet to make any decision and will keep monitoring. Mind you we are the largest county and our northern boarder is the PA line. And the mountains cutting through diagonally Emmitsburg and Thurmont usually get hit harder and the entire county goes off of that. It is very possible we will get the 5 am text as start time is looking like 3 am. Bus drivers start runs just after 5 am. And believe me there will be people bitching about not having a night before call. The systems are damned if they do and damned if they don’t.
  13. 50 and foggy up here in Frederick. FT’ing with the kid in DC she said it 66 and the skies look a bit more open with some sun peaking through.
  14. FCPS MD just pulled the trigger on tomorrow. 3 day weekend.
  15. Yep it is. The work from home was working for so many and then they got blindsided. He is an animator and his set up at home had worked for over 3 years. We have topped out our internet and he is hard wired in. He had to return back his equipment with this change, and we went out and got a new monitor for his laptop to run through. And a convertor hub to run everything through his laptop. He too said he is more productive at home and had more time to work not due to having to commute 270. They lost a lot of people due to early retirement or just finding work from home companies. He is begrudgingly doing it for now.
