    Zen.... (SNOW ALERT)

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Damn you and your snow karma....

    Last night, I heard that this one was going to hit NORTH of DC and we would be spared (dusting to an inch). Zen's area was supposed to get more... Dunno if things have changed but I'm still hoping it tracks north of us because we had some decent melting. New England (interior) was supposed to get pummeled (2 feet of snow)

    We had about 4 inches of heavy wet snow overnight. It's now raining. Just about 10 miles west of here, schools are closed and there's 10-15 inches of snow.

    Perfect, I'm done with the evil Cyclo-Core on Friday and then it's out on the road next week (if it's not freezing...).

    I'm taking the kiddos snowshoeing with headlamps tonight, then I think we'll do some sledding with headlamps

    We've had over 15" of heavy new snow in the past 24 hours, and another 7" or so is predicted for tonight and tomorrow.

    We have a LOT of snow now.
