Photos thread for Jan 22-24 Blizzard

[Bob Chill]

I walked up and down the the street this morning. Feeling very good about 30" now. Plenty of settled 27"+ readings in various places. The lowest close spotter report was 29.6" but all the others were over 30".  I don't get big wind on our street so drifting wasn't bad until up the hill. 

 

Here's some shots from the walk:

 

The plows are going to leave a mountain if they every get here:

 

 

 

 

I went back and looked at snowmageddon pics. I took a similar shot in the morning after and storm is more visually impressive. No doubt about it. 

 

 

 

My dog isn't small. He's 65lbs. My neighbor ran his snowblower down line. Nice clean cut and gives perspective to depth.

 

 

 

My kids' car is under there. We partially cleaned last night. It's not a small car. It's a 2002 Mercury Sable.

Great pics everybody! Be careful if you are digging out, 30+ is still a lot of weight even if a dry snow.

Fantastic shots Bob. Awesome man. So happy for you. Hope you get plowed out soon. Great job by the way with your posts leading up. Generational storm.

Thanks man. The greatest overall storm experience of my life. The tracking part was a bit frantic at times but the big show blew my mind. I feel totally refreshed. One good night of sleep and ready to do it again. This winter is already a victory if it ended today. You guys look to get it shortly. I'm thinking Feb is memorable up and down the coast. It has the look and feel from what I'm seeing already on guidance.

Not sure how much we ended up with (20+?) here in Locust Grove VA but it is the most snow I've ever seen from one storm.

Crappy cell phone pic, but you get the idea. Here's last night. Where's Jeb??

And now. An amazing amount of snow! My girlfriend is in this picture somewhere. Oh, and although we were going to take the Christmas decorations last weekend, we left them up just in case this storm hit. Ill take some photos tonight that will be our Christmas card next year

Winchester, VA. The great blizzard of 2016. 39 inches

 

 

This is what I found when I opened my garage door this morning.

My buried Mustang

 

 

Frozen wasteland

 

 

Current road situation. Its a disaster. Not a single plow through entire event.

 

 

My son is 6'1 for scale reference on this drift.

They spelled Potomac wrong. 

[clskinsfan]

That Martinsburg ob is wrong. They have way over 30 inches.

My final picture. I've come to the conclusion that digging out will take much longer than Snowmageddon.

Snow adds a nice touch to photos along the water

Nice shot. There should be another thread for "artistic" snow/winter photography. Too many buried cars and snow covered deck furniture shots from homes in subdivisions lol.

Absolutely spectacular pics man. I feel like I won 1.5 billion dollars tax free because you got 30+ inches of snow. You absolutely deserve this. Hope the plows get your roads all squared away very soon. Enjoy.

Took me 3 hours to dig out with a snowblower. Snow was like a glacier . 32 inches.

I didn't take these but wanted to share. These were taken at the berkeley medical center in Martinsburg WV. That's some serious drifting!
