About 6-8 inches or so in NE DC, right between Takoma Park and Hyattsville. It's actually starting to melt a little. Gonna need that other system to head through.

That's NC for you bro....lol


Fuckers just parked in the medium and walked home. I have a few friends I know traveling from Chapel Hill to Raleigh that ended up walking the last couple miles because they were walking faster than they were moving in the cars. Another girl I know spent 6 hours in her car....lol


I think fuckers were trying to go up that hill that was covered with ice and it didn't work so well.

That is NC for you.

Also note that it isn't just snow that we got. We got a layer of pure ice as well. I mean, cars couldn't even get up that slight hill due to the ice. Cars around here aren't equipped to deal with the terrain in these situations. (snow tires/chains) Hell, not sure our municipalities are really equipped as well.


Some good comments and insight from other northerners living in NC.

So, this is how Raleigh, NC handles 2.5" of snow : pics (http://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1xqxbp/so_this_is_how_raleigh_nc_handles_25_of_snow/)

yeah we did get that pure ice, luckily for me I have snow tires on my SUV that I only keep for reasons like this.

Slow and steady wins the race when driving on snow/ice. I guess folks who aren't used to it think you have to gun it to go anywhere. That's how you end up off the road or overheating your engine to the point where it blows up lol.

that happened to one of my employees after I told her not to do that, and she calls me and first thing she says "You were right," SMH.

Looks like 6 inches, I measured it with a ruler in Beaverdam, Virginia. I am 40 miles Northeast of Richmond. Six inches is about the max I can take and get out. I have a single wheel drive Chevy Tahoe that sucks in the mud and snow even with nice tires. I live on a dirt, gravel road and almost 2 miles from the nearest plowed road. Also with neighbors few and far between some of the roads may only see a few cars a day.
