Kevin Shaw Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Taken in the Frederick City Forest (watershed) about 10-15 miles NNW of Frederick, along Mountaindale Road (just for the Jeep stuck by tree across road picture - elev. estimated at about 1000 feet) and Gambrills State Park Rd. (elevation estimated at about 1400 feet) in the late afternoon on Saturday, October 29, 2011. My friend Rick Holden was along with me, and he took the snow measurement you can see in the one picture, and measured 5 inches. It was 32 degrees and still snowing lightly at the time, which was about 4 - 4:30 PM. I believe the snow had compacted some by the time we had gotten there to measure it, I would estimate their peak snow depth was closer to 8 inches earlier in the day. Gambrills State Park was probably about 5 miles south of the location of a majority of these pictures, at slightly lower elevation. The park road were took the pictures was gravel based and snow covered with ruts from car tires. There were a few spots along the road where we had to clear downed small trees and/or branches from the roadway so we could get by. The spot where the jeep was stuck was not possible to get by, the jeep owner tried to attach ropes to the tree and his bumper to pull the tree off the road, but failed to do so. Then he also failed in trying to drive over the tree with his jeep so he turned around as did I after he passed. Luckily Gambrills Park Rd was just a half of a mile or so down the road to use to get up into the deeper snow of the higher elevations of the forest. Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Allsnow Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Wow. Did it start out as rain or was it, ehm, yeah I'm not even gonna. Yeah we had rain for about 3 hours, then switch over around 11. About 7 hours earlier then any forecast had it. Alot of people out and about saying how it looks like a tornado went through. Either way you slice it, I will not forget this storm....very memorable event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
