Enough with the snow already

[Biciclista]

but there's a new snow storm coming! my friend in Georgia is all freaked out about it.
No kidding, are none of you in that path?!?

[Zen]

That one looks like it's going to be all south.
We don't have anything predicted until Monday and the current forecast is only 50%

there are about five pages, some good , others not so much.

I thought I saw someone hanging out of that helicopter yesterday.

ETA the link!

NY--It's like that in North Arlington, too. N. Glebe seems ok, as does Lee Hwy and N. Quincy. In the neighborhoods, forget it. The front loader and plow/salt dumper that did work in our neighborhood cleared one lane so you really have to be alert for oncoming traffic. Tell you the truth, I'm grateful for it. Getting out of the house today and going somewhere in the car was wonderful.

It's beautiful outside, despite the snow. The sun is bright, the sky is so blue, and it feels warm... Really, you can tell that spring is around the corner (I hope we don't miss out of the crocuses--they should be making an appearance in a couple weeks)

The clipper on Monday is supposed to be minor---not much moisture associated w/it. Let's hope it dies out...

The sun was really warm yesterday. I'm so happy that spring is getting closer.

Biciclista, the roads in my community didn't get plowed in our December snowstorm, either. Well, actually, SOME roads got plowed.... ones on the Montgomery County side. On the PG side? No. One main road, a huge hill, has one lane plowed out, and that's it; everything coming off that road hasn't been touched.

I hear big equipment out there now and one of the neighbors said she'd seen a front-end loader in our 'hood. Another day of this, and I'd have called the media; almost did that today.

I did get out today (it's my mother's 87th birthday; duty, you know); another driver and I had to push someone's car out into an intersection because it was stuck on the side street. Our "potholes" are places where snow has melted -- perhaps because people have been spinning their wheels there -- with snow and ice 8-10" high around the "pothole." I may need new shocks after this.

Heard someone on the radio talking about Fenty's (the mayor of DC) snow removal program; he referred to it as "spring." His street hasn't been plowed yet, either; I feel his pain!

One of the Frederick county commissioners posted this on facebook to demonstrate some of the challenges they've been facing in their plowing efforts:



My grocery store was well stocked with food tonight. But it had ice cream, so all was good in the world.

[Zen]

I missed that FB photo.
That must be out towards Adamstown.

I went to Weis today and it was fully stocked. I'm not much impressed with Bloom. It seems to be more of a market than a grocery store.

[Cataboo]

Meh. Weis always seems ghetto when I go into it, and I hate where it's located. Bloom's convenient for me and I like it.

He said it was Steiner Smith Road, whereever that is.

[Cataboo]

Oh, that heads down to Legore Bridge road, which means I've probably ridden on it.

Now to figure out where Adamstown is

Past the Bike Doctor towards Sugarloaf.
