... Otis you're golden, that is the one of only a handful of reasons to not get in today.
Is that the right accident? It says December 26th at the top of the page there.
Not to that point yet, but after reading your post, I went out and cleared around the closest drain....thanks for the thought
Whoops. Clicked the wrong slideshow:
Man, I'm not sure of the details that Plan X Protocol involves but it sure sounds like they know what they're doing.
How much did you get? My dad said he got close to a foot in the hills past the timonium mall / towards jarrettsville pike (the reservoir and all)
Alright, that's it! You guys are so darn smart, YOU find better pictures!
Same here. HOA gets a plowguy sometimes, but it's never certain.
I know you didn't ask me but I live close by in Sykesville, Carroll County, and we got about 18 inches between both snows. On top of that we got about a 1/2 inch of ice overnight so scraping the car off this morning was more of a chore than I thought it would be.
I'm just hoping it melts enough so I can get home. I've been in the office since 8:30, I got out for dinner -frozen pizza, so only a couple inches to clear this morning. Sucked clearing it last night. I checked flights and the first two from Philly to Charlotte went, so pretty optimistic that I'll get back to Charlotte on a 3:30. Especially with the warm up. Roads were a little nasty this morning, but easily passable if you drive slower.
It looks like it is going to melt off a good bit today. Going to be slick later and we are supposed to get some possibly freezing rain overnight. Tomorrow will probably require a late start.
Saturday?
Yep, not for school or work, but my little guy has an 8am basketball game, which is why I want to make sure I get back today. Looking at the forecast it looks like rain (70%) after midnight in the Charlotte area, but the low is supposed to be 34. If it stays above freezing, we should be fine. Might be worse Sunday and Monday morning as we will have a whole lot of melting going on and slightly below freezing at night.
Several of the dozen or so 8' leylands I had planted last spring are kissing the ground... :(
and that's why diblasio is mayor
I'm interested to see this when I get home. I planted 2 magnolias when we first moved in 7 years ago. My wife said yesterday the we're bending pretty bad. I love those trees. The two of them with their large pots fit in the back of my previous Explorer and are close to twenty feet tall now. I really hope they are OK. They might be the only trees I care about.
We got 20" yesterday before I shoveled, a good amount of sleet yesterday evening followed by about 8" of heavy snow last night which I just finished shoveling.
Took me over two hours to get in to work this AM. Waiting for a bus for 30 minutes, then a 15 minute bus ride, then waiting for a train for 15 minutes, then the train went local and took 45 minutes to 34th Street. Then a 25 minute cab ride from 34th and 6th to 28th and 12th. Exhausting. Should have just stayed in bed.
My GF said her drive from Mount Holly to Yorkshire was fine...all roads clear.
...or spent an hour and a half digging out 3 cars, then driving a half hour to work. Pick your poison.
The flooding has begun at the base of our driveway where the twin peaks of snow now prevent water from moving on downhill... :(
Lots of Maryland FBGs around lately. I'm east of you in Catonsville and got about 15 inches total. Melting like a mother right now though.
This happened to 8 leylands I planted during the huge snow 3 or 4 years ago. They were about 7 foot at the time and touching the ground. I trudged through over 2 feet of snow and knocked as much of the snow off as I could. The trees are fine today.
Thankfully I avoid the turnpike completely (I take 30E to 202N).
Thank goodness you werent trapped in that logjam! That would've ruined your day
I had a good night sleep. I heard ice crunching outside my window around 3am but there was no plowing.If he REALLY loved snow removal he would.No, I don't think he can work Boston and NY on the same night.Can I have his number?I don't pay him so he must love snow removal.You talk to him about the overplowing? He sounds like someone who cares about his business... If you asked him to just come one time, I'm sure he would.Yes, he is extremely dependable. I hear him plowing at 1am, at 2am, at 3am, at 4am...This belongs in the lose lose thread... Not for nothing, but your snow removal guy, removed all the snow... In most places it is supposed to snow again tonight and this dude sounds dependable so I bet he's back in the morning.I just check and the driveway is ALL ICED UP already!I smashed the snow removal guy's snowman to smithereens.
When someone lives in a place that usually gets a handful of mild snowstorms per year, they're completely free to ##### as much as they like during a sh##bag winter like this one.
we have about two or three feet more than normal. Oh well. Why waste time and energy manstrating about something I can't control?
3rd snowiest Philly winter ever and heard a local weather guy say March isn't going to be a picnic either.
