  1. I said this one was going to over perform.
  2. Lol you can pry it from my cold dead hands.
  3. Sounds like you're projecting. I've already reached annual average snowfall so anything else is gravy.
  4. Tree rings indicate it was during the pleistocene.
  5. Isn't the GGEM just the Canadian ensembles?
  6. I most definitely will. I'm back in.
  7. Firewood gonna be cheap next season.
  8. Wtf I have a WWA for freezing rain tomorrow. Where'd that come from? Just what the trees need.
  9. I'm out. Guess 1" topping to make my existing foot of snow look pretty again will have to do.
  10. I need to live long enough to see the storm. Not sure that would be the case.
  11. Yeah baby. Like I said, she's gonna overperform...and I'm in jackpot again.
  12. I just lost my last large loblolly pine tree last night, made a hell of a racket and snapped clean off at the bottom. So now that I've lost every single large tree that I cared about I'm game for more snow, can't do much more damage than has already been done. I'm gonna trust in the old Canadian. They know snow up there.
  13. Here's a whole row of evergreens basically demolished. Those Leeland Cypress don't do well in snow anyway.
  14. Wife and I just got back from a 2mi snowshoe around the area and it's devastation for conifer trees. Almost every single tree is very damaged or blown over. A guy down the street has/had a row of 12x 30ft+ cypress trees and all except one are completely taken down. Even white pines were heavily damaged, one of mine basically broke in half. Loblolly pines lost a ton of branches. Holly trees are all completely bent or broken. Tree damage here is much worse than 09-10, hurricane Irene, 2016 blizzard, 2012 derecho or any other storm we've had since at least 2004.
  15. JB thinks there's blizzard potential and that it's going to be a cold storm. No indication on bullseye though.
  16. I'll never complain about snow but please let it not be Sierra cement.
  17. Just cleared the driveway. Sounds like a war zone with trees and branches cracking all over the place. I lost a lot of trees, this storm was no joke. It's still snowing albeit very lightly. Still no power either.
  18. I just measured 10.5" on my deck in northern Calvert. It's already consolidated a bit though. Luckily wind has basically disappeared with only light snow now. Gonna have to tackle the driveway soon.
  19. Just lost a 20yr old river birch. Also a large Holly tree literally just uprooted and fell over. I cant even go outside to enjoy it because branches are falling left and right and I'd be afraid for my safety. In terms of destruction this is the worst storm I've had since I lived here since 2004. Even the derecho had fewer trees down. Power still down too.
  20. I'm right off the western shore in Calvert and our power has been down for almost an hour now. Also just heard multiple large explosion sounds which I'm guessing must be large tulip trees cracking as we don't have any large transformers around us. It's startling how loud they are.
  21. Power is down in Huntingtown. Luckily I'm using the wood stove.
