Rokerthon is hilarious. Apparently he's going non-stop.

I'm a social worker and a couple of my clients are having this same problem today. Hoping that everyone is alright for a few days.

Baltimore County, MD. Going to have to shovel off my deck at some point.
We had a break in the snow here in N. Delaware, when I went to bed at 3:30am it was coming down heavy but at some point it fell off (here's 8am, when I got up for a bit), then picked up around 9am. Here's a quick picture I took just now of the drifts forming on / around the cars in the parking lot.
Here's Lewes, Delaware (Rehoboth Beach), which hasn't been getting much snow but that coastal flooding is a bitch;
Looks like we're back to light dry snow at the moment, but this storm has all damn day to pile up. Right now the wind is the big concern.

Shut it all down. We got snow flurries in Jacksonville.
I like to imagine Paul Ryan is djing it himself. One headphone held up to ear, feelin' it.
/Cars in arlington are straight up buried on the streets due to the drifts. Think we got about 16 inches so far.

Around 16 inches so far in Gaithersburg, MD, and still snowing.

I've been doing this for years, and I think it may be the single smartest thing I've ever thought of. I put tarps on my cars and driveway, and when I shovel (or rather, pay someone else to do it), at a certain point you can just drag the tarps away and your cars and driveway are completely clear of snow and ice.

Shoveling the driveway and sidewalk was absolutely brutal this morning. Must've spent 2 hours on that.

The snowfall is taller than my dog, so I just used the snow blower to make a maze for him in the backyard.

Shoveling fresh snow is fairly easy since they don't get stuck. I only hate it after people had been walking on them for a while and compacted everything. Have to slam the shovel into the snow to nake it move.

I'm by Dulles. Probably 20+ inches now.
Weather Underground is predicting about 12 more hours of snow for DC proper. But, well, that could change.
If a restaurant is open I'm sure they'll be happy to have the business.

if you do tip BIG! I did this when we had a blizzard a couple years back and though they are dedicated it clealy was a hassle to get to me(and I lived on a hill)
Oops. I meant delivery. But I'll walk there instead actually.
MTA already scheduled the last trains to be at noon. My girlfriend is almost home from her retail job, they sent everyone home at about 11.
My dad sent me pictures from his house in southern PA in Lancaster. It already looks like they have 2 feet of snow.
We were supposed to get an Amazon Fresh order tomorrow and I was going to get a desperately needed hair cut. Fuck.

Well I got home. Spent the night in Wilmington, then made it back to Holly Springs this morning.
But no power. And early estimates from Duke Power suggest it might be Monday 11pm before we get it back.
Fucking hell

I've never thought of the tarps, but that's really smart.

So Boston is mostly in the clear right?
It seems be slowing down in and around Philly, is this just a temporary lull?

Wow looks like NYC is surpassing the estimates. All the groceries and bodegas around me are still open tho.
Gonna play Last of Us and make a beef stew.

We've gotten a lot more since I took that pic this morning. Now the dog can't see over the top and a snow drift has blocked the back door on my porch.
I've heard it's supposed to ramp up this afternoon then die down tonight.
No. Most meteorologists now believe Boston could see 4-6 inches by tomorrow.

This wind is the most brutal part (i hate long island). Just glad I added a few extra straps to my car covers. Also got some gnarly drifts in my yard, i'll hopefully get some pics if the snow stops.
Yeah, looks like we're still due for another 5-8 over the day.

What barbershop is that? Just so I know never to patronize them, ever.
Also, time to walk from Chinatown to the Cap Hill area. I'll try to get pictures.

It just started coming down heavier with some high winds around Baltimore. So if the storm is coming North you might be in the path of that in a few hours.
