Snowmageddon, The Snow Kahuna, or the Blizzard of 2010

Well, we are surviving. I have heat, food in the fridge and a shovel. I am set. Starting on Friday and going into Saturday afternoon, the mid-atlantic region has been hammered by a major blizzard dropping 24+ inches of snow. No school today, and I'm not sure about tomorrow, but we are supposed to get another 6-12 inches Tuesday into Wednesday. Oh joy. Below are some pics.

8:00 AM, still snowing, this is what I woke up to as I opened my front door on Saturday morning

I tried to clear a path to my car. I worked for two hours in the morning and the snow just kept coming. Sunday I was feeling a little cabin-feverish, and decided to take a walk to check out how things were shaping up. In the picture above, this is supposed to be a sidewalk. Who would have guessed? The sun came out, and look at that path!! I worked hard. My arms and back hurt!! (This is Sunday).

This reminds me so much of Boston. This is exactly what you'd see all over the city. Hey, who can blame anyone. If you spend hours of back-breaking labor clearing out a space and someone goes and takes it, whew! You'd see me upset! I have a plan. I am taking my old air conditioner and putting it in my spot. Too heavy to move, I love the irony, and if they take it, good because it doesn't work anyway!
One of the many snow piles in my parking lot.

For the record books:

2nd largest all-time two day snowfall
2nd largest snowfall season (but I think we will pass this on Tuesday and Wednesday) 60 inches right now.

Baltimore has NEVER gotten TWO 20+ inch snowstorms in the same season, so this is a first!
