Look at these snowed-in photos of columbia.
Columbia has a very routine habit of having one real snow once a year every three or four years. All the other times, people just freak out over forecasts of dusting. Good to see more snow in Maryland than Maine for once.
UPDATE: from the front page of CNN.com:
A raging nor’easter howled its way up the East Coast on Sunday, breaking a snowfall record in New York, shutting down airports and dumping more than two feet of snow on some parts of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states. Other snowfall totals included 27.8 inches at Fairfield, Connecticut; 25.4 inches at New York’s LaGuardia Airport; 21.3 inches in Columbia, Maryland, near Baltimore; and more than a foot in parts of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, according to the National Weather Service.
the humungous snow blower is cheating. when we were little you had to shovel your way out, and you liked it.
we got a bit over a foot. and yet, because of the poor timing, here we were, at work, by 9am.
