g'mornin'!!! I'm hoping we actually get the snow they're calling for, and then some!! My gf is telling me she heard 8", but I've only heard/read 5". Whatever, the more the better!! No more rain!! After the past few months I've been considering moving to the Gobi desert!!

I'm VERY excited about it! SOOOOO sick of rain, slop, mud... UGH! I spent the last 4 years out in Colorado.... and I'm going back. I was born here in MD but it doesn't suit me any longer.

Sorry to hear about the 4WD being down; parts issue or just need an extra set of hands?

I'm used to the calls for help too, but I used to drive rather "spirited" in the snow, so that tends to weed out the mooches. Now when I drift an 8,000lb truck they don't want to be in the same county as me!!

Update on amounts for most of our area....

ACCUMULATIONS... HEAVY SNOW WITH ACCUMULATIONS OF 5 TO 10 INCHES THROUGH SUNSET SATURDAY. LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE... MAINLY IN OR NEAR SOUTHERN MARYLAND. ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED SATURDAY NIGHT.

Looks like it's a real thing....guess I'll finally get to use my 5 year old (brand new) snowblower!

yeah, it's time to fire up the snow blower finally, those little 1-2" have to be shoveled, but anything over 4" is snow blower ready.
