Here's the entrance to my house in Columbia, MD. I think we got the highest totals here in Howard County.

Here's a view from my kitchen out to my deck. I had to shovel all of that snow off the deck today.

i'm so glad i shoveled a couple times way better than trying to shovel 30 inches at once. i cleaned my truck off and shoveled a bit of the street and there is 26 inches on my street, and it probably won't see a plow until monday evening if we are lucky. the best part of my day was polishing off a bottle of chianti before 630.

gonna be interesting to see what happens when the next storm hits tuesday or wednesday they haven't really said much about it yet

I'm kicking myself for not shoveling Friday late afternoon or during the evening. A plow came through my street but only because there was an emergency in my neighborhood and the ambulance had to come (I hope they are ok). Still, most people have been able to dig trenches from their houses to the street.

We had just over 3 feet here at my house. Our neighborhood still hasn't been plowed due to the money situation most likely (The county said in the paper that it had no more snow removal money, and as a result some places won't get plow service because they will be focusing on the main roads, etc...).

So there was a radio announcement yesterday begging ANYONE who had a plow truck or tractor to please come and help each other...it was pro bono work, but due to an emergency, they were just asking people to help each other out. My dad went out last night with his tractor, which is a john deere with a big snowblower on the front of it. He plowed driveways and stuff until about 2 in the morning...

Now with nearly a 100% chance of snow for Tuesday night and Wednesday, we will probably be shut in again...

29.6" here in Germantown, We lost power late Friday night and it wasn't restored until 8:45 Sunday morning. Life is difficult living without power, your options are limited.

It was completely insane. I can't think of the last time I had that much fun with so many folks that I didn't know. My buddy got popped and walked away with a bloody lip. Of course I didn't let him hear the end of that for the rest of the day. I did see the clip of it on Sportscenter.
