It's funny how high the snow got on your sideview mirrors. :p

Virginia Beach got a dusting... I would like a snow day (preferably Tuesday to make a four day weekend!)

I just hope most of you guys are parking the X's inside...all these horror stories of OSV valves freezing, from minor smoking and CEL lights to hydrolocking motors from the massive amounts of oil flooding in the engine.

We got a total of around 4.5'...woohoo. Created nice drifts of 6' or better. Can's see parts of my fence anymore.

I was feeling a little left out looking at all these beautiful photos of the snow, but we had a "blizzard" here today. Well, at least it is something.

It was mildly interesting seeing the landscape change as I drove south from Central VA to the Durham area. It went from winter wonderland landscape at first, then somewhere around Farmville I was able to see peeks of grass. By the time I cross the border there wasn't any snow left on the side of the roads and when I got onto the interstate, there was almost no snow left at all.

Of course as luck has it, the RDU area is now under a Winter Advisory, so it looks like I bring snow wherever I go. . At least NC DOT was able to pretreat the roads, so main roads are only wet despite hours of snowfall.

I started this thread on Friday, February 5th before the first storm of the "Double Blizzard." Today is the first day since then that our schools are back in session! (With the exception of Frederick County, which is still closed today.) Most of the counties are operating on a 2-hour delayed opening today, tomorrow, and Friday, though. These kids will be in school until July!!

Maryland puts a great deal of emphasis on clear sidewalks as a criteria for school delays or closings. In some counties, if someone slips on your part of the sidewalk, they legally can sue you and will win.

The sidewalks at UVa have been so bad at times that I'm surprised no one's sued the University despite hundreds of falls. I guess that's one diff between VA and MD.

My high school had a 5 car-wreck minimum before they'd even consider closing school.
