Seriously got unlucky here in Purcellville. I had another 3.1 inches today. Total for the week was 6.3 inches

Many nearby had at least an inch or more today and earlier this week. Oh well. Better than last year and snow is on the ground. 

That's odd - I had a good 4 inches here - Had 3.5 earlier in the week. And I'm only 4 miles from PVille

Watching the local news, and they were covering kids sledding at Rodger's Forge. One parent said when the flakes started falling, her son was outside in shorts and a t-shirt saying "I'VE MISSED THIS" She said the kid had been out there all day and half the night and said "I've been deprived...I'm not stopping! It may never happen again" 

This kid GETS IT :lol:

I was out earlier in the afternoon and despite the snow roads were just wet. Since the sun has gone down everything that was wet earlier is now frozen. The wind didn't dry things before sunset, meaning there's a lot of moisture on surfaces still.

My road, which has been plowed multiple times and was bare but wet earlier, is pretty iffy now. There's gonna be tons of black ice so if you go out this evening be careful.

Seriously. We just exited one snow streamer about 30 min ago, and had a bit of sunset and twilight afterward before full dark...but everything that was wet is flash-freezing. Slid almost the entire way down to the end of the driveway to check the mail a few minutes after taking this one. Please be careful out there tonight, folks, if you have to be out on the roads...

The little boomlet that sliced the District caved my sidestreet and all the sidewalks residents had so dutifully shoveled. The bigger streamer looks to brush just to my north. 

Unofficially about 4.5" but waiting on confirmation from other reports nearby.

i was shoveling while it passed - not too much damage.  i'll probably put down some ice melt.  Man the Tenleytown Ace hardware store has been a life saver - I freaking love that place.

Any reports from the snow streamer in Baltimore County? Hopefully it holds up for Northern Anne Arundel.

Coming down hard in Towson with the first fatties of the day. Looks like it's going to come and go to fast to do anything more than provide another coating.

Here here! 

Looks like it’s finally wrapping up but it was awesome while it lasted.

Picked up a quick 0.4” which leaves me with the same exact total as the previous event - 4.4”

Yeah I spoke too soon. Street out front caved in a nanosecond of this. Might get .25 out of this if it lasts another half hour.

They got it at Rodman's too. They have everything there. They're even selling booze now and not just wine and beer. Rodman's has been my life saver more times than I can count!
