Oh Boy Here It Comes.....

Well, it looks like i will be able to get to use my new snowblower for the second time, while on the forum we lost power twice just a little while ago. It started snowing and the weatherman is calling for 6 to 12" of snow by morning from the Northern part of Maryland across the Mason/Dixon line, we are just 11 miles from PA.

The snow that we had from the last 8" snowfall just melted, so now we are getting new stuff........So much for Spring

Two weeks ago we had record low temps and record snowfall. Last week we had record high temps!
Today was cooler and we have a forecast of above normal temps this week and a good chance of rain on Thursday. We should be through with the bad winter weather, but anything can happen. I'm sure we'll have some more cold days and nights and maybe a little snow, but I doubt we have anything like we just had.

Wade with our forecast I should have plenty of warm weather to send your way, but I did learn from last time. I'm only gonna set the fan on medium!

Remember to turn the heat on on that snowblower's handles!

Wade, even though I am only about 100 miles from you, we missed another one. Other than cold, it has been a great winter here.....only about 7" total snow all winter. All 4 points on the compass have gotten much more snow than us.

Hey Chap, compared to last year we've gotten off pretty easy this year. 6" of snow over night. I didn't get my snow-thrower out. I just drove out of it to g to work. Sun is out so I hope it starts the melting process today. Temps are coming up this week so this snow won't be around too long. After 75 degrees on Friday I think everyone forgot it's still February.

All we got here was about an inch of snow, but we had rain, then ice, then sleet, then the snow...Driving sucks. By the way, they are starting to clearance out the snow blowers here...Hope it's over soon.

That's all we ended up with. Rte 30 was a mess, 795 not too bad, 695 basically wet, but Rte 43 near White Marsh, The Forgotten Road, was absolutely terrible.
