Re: Let It Snow

Sorry just enjoying the fact I'm not getting hammered with snow for a change.

Re: Let It Snow

I was at the NOAA - National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration-building today and the buzz there is up to 4 feet in DC.

So DRave, there's going to be a big snowball fight in Dupont Circle tomorrow at 2PM. And one on The Ellipse around the same time, I think.

Just remember to hit the deck if you spot the 5-0!

Oh reaaally? If I could get out of my door, I'd definitely be there... Packing heat just in case.

Re: Let It Snow

The Algorestorm started here about 30 minutes ago. 8-16" expected. They're predicting 11.1" (somehow) in my town.

Re: Let It Snow

We have problems with power outages whenever there's inclement weather, whether it be heavy rain, thunder storms or heavy snow fall, the end result is still the same. We're hoping that won't be the case for the week-end, especially Sunday.

Re: Let It Snow

I braved the snow to go to the liquor store to replenish my beer. Got liquor already so I was good. Just finished helping 2 guys shovel their cars out of the middle of the street in my neighborhood.

Pay It Forward !

Yeah that is really an essential for this kind of weather. I've got enough scotch to kill and elephant, and plenty of beer/wine for the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Re: Let It Snow

I definitely fishtailed on the way home, coming down a hill. And that was around 6pm, where there was hardly any snow... I can only imagine how driving is right now.

I'm praying to God that the power doesn't go out.

The snow is really heavy and wet. It's just sitting on power lines and trees. There are going to be plenty of outages overnight. A close friend's parents live in Gaithersburg, and they lost power at 7:30pm and are still in the dark.

My other friend in Rockville has had his power go off and on sporadically all night.

Re: Let It Snow

Here's what it looked like out here (60 miles west of DC, near Skyline Drive) at about 7pm. This is a 2 lane road roughly equivalent to the Fairfax Co Pkwy. My advice is to stay home if at all possible. If you do go out, be prepared and don't be an idiot behind the wheel.
