I think you need a season pass to even go to Whitetail this year. I don't ski but my family has been telling me that the prices are insane this year.

I bought a ticket for this week and one for next weekend. No discounts unless you want to ski after 3pm which is still 64$. Massanutten is 55 and they offer 4 hour passes but then you'd have to go to Massanutten.

I don't want to jinx it, but we're looking at some solid snow on Sunday...

Apparently it could continue through Monday too.

Is there some kind of MoCo car club on Saturday afternoons or something? Last weekend I was on I-270 heading south when a new Toyota Supra popped up in my rearview mirror, followed by 6 or 7 other sports cars, flying by and weaving in and out of traffic like madmen. Then about a minute after that, 2 Porsche GT3s raced by. I like driving fast but in that heavy traffic I was surprised to see people being so reckless. They were doing at least 100 mph at points.

Fuuuuuck snow. Hope it ends up being a dud like so many storms that have been predicted.

I am both looking forward to this and not looking forward to this. I want to see snow, but it's not like being stuck inside is a novelty these days.

Copped a Scion FR-S today. Sad that I won't be able to drive this weekend because of all the snow we should be getting in Baltimore.

Nothing yet in Baltimore. The clouds are full of it though. Not taking my chances on a morning drive.

As long as people keep driving all day there's going to be no accumulation on roads. See you at work tomorrow.

Pretty much a bust north of DC. I'm currently experiencing a "fine, icey mist". I think I have maybe 4" of snow. Supposed to get 1-2" more, and then it's done.

Things looked fine at 4pm yesterday, we only got a couple inches. But then everything froze overnight so it was a little dicey getting out. Main roads are fine though.

Perfectly acceptable snowstorm in Annapolis. 3-5" on the ground which is plenty for sledding, tossing some snowballs around, school's closed, and honestly, not so much that the roads are a complete mess that will take a week to fix. 8/10.

It is like a half-step up from slurries here in SS, it was a bit heavier though.

Yesterday while turning, the car started slipping and slid towards a curb and ironically the snow saved me. The plowers piled enough snow by the curbs that it cushioned the slide. I was getting ready for curbed rims and messed up alignment.

I'm down with snow now that I got my mom her vaccination shot last week.



Overnight most of our region was upgraded to a Winter Storm Warning beginning Sunday morning at 3am and continuing until noon. (Winter Weather Advisories in purple).

So I just moved into an apartment in Gaithersburg with natural gas heating for water and the oven. I set up service with Washington gas but when I got to the apartment yesterday I wasn't getting service. I called and they said they would send a tech (from 6 pm to midnight) and no one came. Does anyone have any advice on how to get in contact with them quicker than calling the normal phone line (which I waited on for two hours yesterday)?

I just want to be able to take a warm shower and maybe cook something.

Last time I was unprepared but this go around I have a 50 lb of salt ready.

Just hope this time there's no rain. That's what really made the snowfall awful last time, as everything was frozen by the following morning.

Drove out to my brother's house near Urbana, MD today. The drive there and home wasn't much of anything. Looks like this shit is on pause for a couple days.
 
How the fuck are you gonna make a DMV OT without including the food of our people?
