#1 Expecting 20" where I am, with ice before & after.

Ugh.

#2 It's snowing with a vengence here in central Virginia. I just drove home from the store and noticed that, while the roads are still pretty clear (but starting to get slushy), the trees are already weighted down with snow. Lots of wet snow = power lines down sooner or later. :-(

#5 DC radio this am said with 18" of snow, the 100-year old record for snowfall bows. Since 18-24" is forecast, and it's Feb. 5th, I'd say the record is going to be buried.

#6 Hey, send it up here please!! Worcester MA has only gotten a total of about 30" this winter and our snow-pack is down to just a couple of inches. We've only had a couple of 8 - 10 inchers and a few little things since Tgiving.

#8 Yes, people have retreated into their snow bunkers here in Northern Virginia. My synagogue has cancelled services this weekend even.

#10  A real snow disaster is when buildings collapse and semi trucks are completely buried and hidden in drifts. This isn't one of them.

#11 In the pacific northwest, an inch-and-a-half is enough to get the local newscasters declaring the end-of-the-world.

Its funny to watch the AM local news after a little dusting.

#12  I'm surprised they get any snow in D.C., with all that 'Hot Air' in the capital..

#13 I've been looking at bare ground for two weeks. I'd like to keep it that way for awhile...
