No wind!!! Keep the power on and I can shovel the snow. It sucks but what are you gonna do? Salting the roads doesnt hurt either. Thank God for the good farmers around here that plowed the roads decently during the last storm. If I could only repay my farmer neighbor. Thanks so much!!
I have been talking to family members across the bridge. Montgomery county roads are still really bad. Frederick county seems to have done a pretty good job so far. Howard county is so so. Some are good but many are not. It's just not here that the roads are bad. The difference is they dont stop plowing til the roads are better. Here they stop even if the roads are not clear. We ran to town today and a few back roads have not been touched for a while. They might have had a plow go down it once but they are pretty bad. What is up with the road that goes behind WAWA but in front of Kohls? That road is horrible. Even going slow you slide around and almost into cars going the other way.
I went down a road tonight that was horrible! For the most part the roads have patches of ice, but this road was ALL ice. I have a 4x4 pickup and was literally just being pushed pulled from one side of the road to the other trying to get down it. If it weren't for the piled snow I would have been in a ditch! I don't see schools opening at all this week, maybe Friday but that is doubtful.
I called the city on Sunday and they advised that they could not plow right now "because they were at lunch"! LUNCH!!!! I work twelve hours straight this weekend to help stranded travelers and thought nothing about taking Lunch. I actually almost missed dinner because I was more concerned to help people out of the mess! They did promise they would be out Monday if they could not get here on Sunday - Guess what? Monday came and went and our street still never saw a plow and we are talking a city street where I pay city taxes dearly!
you also have to remember that there are many more roads and highways on the western shore...along with a few million more people. the other comment was right that they work around the clock till it's finished over there...the economy of the state needs those roads to be clear...

These folks have nailed the past two or three storms days before anyone else.
It's Gods way of telling the global warming hoaxers the gig is up !
this is the kind of weather al gore and his gang would have live in. plus no heat, makes carbon.
I say Al Gore needs to come to my house and shovel 18 inches of global warming off my steps.
But first he needs to make 18 snow angels for my grandson
