Not to be all “back in my day” like @mattie g or whoever, but I don’t recall getting 2 days off school for a 6” storm when I was a kid. #getoffmylawn

Banter but whatevs it’s my thread. School systems have become very predictable. If it’s 4”+ and doesn’t immediately melt, 2 days off is a good bet these days for the central MD and NoVA crews.

Nope...I know we didn't. Of course, back then we didn't wear seatbelts or bike helmets and we drank leaded paint. But I'm still here (though some of my friends didn't make it), so I'm not sure why kids these days have it so easy!

First snowstorm drone shot! 

 

Bold of you to still be willing to put your drone up with all the drone crap going on! I haven't flown mine in a while now with Remote ID being a requirement now and the drone swarms occurring in various places. 

Obs: Snow coming down here again!

I’m expecting a delay. With only 3 allotted days before going virtual, I’m not sure BCPS will close. But who knows, southern part of the county doubled or more than up here.

Fairfax has 10 days built in. Yes...10.

I love my kids to death and I'm glad they're having a blast, but they'll have been home for 2.5 weeks by the time they go back. That's kinda ridiculous. :lol:

Light, fluffy snow continuing here in Burke and the radar is looking lovely.

First time since Nov. I’ve been wanting to do it more but with the weeks of wind, I don’t want to risk it. I always have to get LAANC approval at my location which usually is approved instantly but can be a hassle sometimes.

10 is crazy! lol

Thankfully mine went back for 1.5 days last week so I got a little break. If your oldest is like mine her day was sleeping late, chatting with friends, an hour in the snow, back to chatting with friends lol
