dukeblue219 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 57 minutes ago, Imgoinhungry said: We thinking delays for most school districts tomorrow? . Honestly I'm expecting a lot to concede and close. Our neighborhood inside the beltway in MoCo is still completely unplowed and if MoCo has to decide based on the entire county.... I can see them deciding it is unsafe.

Yet hes likely wrong. with These slow long duration events its really hard to match snowfall vice snow depth. I am meticulous with my board and measurements. If you wait too long you never are able to get very good measurements. By my calcs we were around 10:1 possible 11:1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saw your message now. Thanks for what you and your team do/did for Lawyers and the surrounding neighborhoods. Don't want to appear ungrateful, just wonder what sort of training the road crews get on plowing? Sad to say one or more of the plow drivers made a mess of the intersection of Lawyers and Garrett. Plowed everything from Lawyers onto Garrett and then turned around and departed, leaving a 2'+ berm of snow all the way across Garrett - essentially closing Garrett. I happened upon it just when the plow driver did a u-turn and departed the intersection to head back w-bound on Lawyers (white F-450). I cleaned up the mess with my Kubota to reopen Garrett.

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Surprisingly bad job by dc on snow removal. Most side streets snowpacked in brightwood, petworth, Columbia heights. Even some major intersections that don’t get a lot of sun are snowpacked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Telegraph Road is one of the few major roads in our parts that has been properly plowed, and then only minimally...roads in our subdivision got their first (single!) pass late yesterday, IF that, but at that point they were barely scraping the top layer of multiple layers of compacted snow/ice set in place Mon nite. I'm the first one to honk if FCPS closes for the threat of a flurry, but this is the worst I've ever seen the roads around Hayfield post-snowstorm...I'll be legit shocked if FCPS doesn't close tomorrow as well.

Terpeast Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Just dropped daughter off at preschool, which is open. Many side streets in the Ashburn area have not been treated or plowed, which is surprising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's crazy. Even my cul-de-sac had multiple passes with plenty of salt laid down, especially on Monday night. Everything is clear around here and I assumed that since we were among the higher totals that if we were clear then everything else should be. I'm not mad about the schools closing. As I mentioned to mappy the other day, there are 10 days built in so it's not a huge deal, but it's pretty sad that the county hasn't been able to get things properly cleared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
