Then it got bitterly cold on Christmas Day and we had some flurries/snow showers. Yes, I had a couple of festive Christmas snow showers on Christmas Day that gave me a light coating. I think MDT even recorded .2 or .3 of snow on Christmas Day! Another good chapter to our very nice Winter so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm embarrassed to say that I don't remember it...and I remember all of that kind of stuff. I must really be getting old. LOL. Lol... I know what you mean... the years fly by! I’m surprised that you don’t remember running your A/C on Christmas Eve... I almost considered it at my place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean...at the end of the day, it's only snow. But to snow weenies like us, it's a big deal. The DC area has been royally screwed for the past FEW years. I'm sure our mood would be a little different if we were going through what they are. Just saying. Remember the mood in here last year...My nightmares have almost stopped! Hopefully we never go through that kind of year anytime soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might have a chance at an appetizer event Friday night into early Saturday. The 18z RGEM is looking tasty at the end of the run for maybe an inch or two of snow. This model is on a good run...maybe it keeps it going ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 The 18z Euro also said “All Aboard!” for a snow appetizer on the train’s dining car early Saturday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next thing you know, freight train comes along and the family scatters everywhere. Couple of them JUST missed being run over. This happened in the past couple of years from what I remember. Scary too. Not sure why they decided to have a family reunion on active freight rails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 A Norfolk Southern train derailed in Perry County yesterday and has closed the track for at least a day - Amtrak's runs to PIttsburgh had to be cancelled. Amtrak sharing track with freight trains is the absolutely dumbest thing on the face of this planet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
