Morning Update

February 6, 2010 by Melissa 

Well, HOLY CRAP. I mean, I knew it was coming, but to see it in action is just amazing. Remember, I have a LINKS page. They are saying we have another wave of heavy snow before this is all done. My area is reporting about 15 inches as of 5:45 this morning. We measured about two hours ago and it was 16 out front, but we think we probably have gotten about 1-2 inches since then. They are predicting about 5-10 more inches before this is done. The shoveled area is already covered again, but at least we got a little bit done.

Here are a few pics from around our house:

I figured that it would be easier to refer to this later on if I just had one post on it. Most flights have been cancelled at Dulles and National, BWI is operating one runway.

Metro updates – once they measure 8 inches of snow, all above ground stations will close.

It isn’t scary blizzard like, no wind, but the snow is already pretty steady. And it is WET.

Here are some pics and after them I’m listing some links for those in the area to keep up with what is going on. You can’t see much here, but I will post pics later on so you can compare:) If you live in the area, email me any pics at MelschroATaoldotcom. I will post them and attribute them to you:)

Snowpocalypse, the sequel

February 5, 2010 by Melissa 

Well, it seems that this MIGHT be worse than the one in December. I am planning on posting during the storm, taking pics, etc. If I am stuck here editing and writing, I might as well let you all know what is going on:). If I don’t kill my family during the weekend of confinement, everything should be okay, lol
I am tagging everything with the snowpocalypse tag, so it will be easy to find.
Oh, and for your viewing pleasure:

SNOW

So, NOVA has been getting blasted with snow this year. Bad for the budges, they are running out of money to clean it up, but I LOVE IT. We only had 5 inches the other day, but we are expecting a HUGE storm this weekend. I got out yesterday and took pics. Belle is part mountain dog, so the girl LOVES the snow. She is going to be thrilled when we get more this weekend. I am off to do some more editing on Hands On Training.
