All-time Record at Dulles Airport -

Snowfall totaling 32.4 inches set an all-time record at Washington Dulles International Airport in Northern Virginia. Dulles Airport is 6 miles from us - and Sterling, VA (where the measurement was actually taken, is closer).


I'm sure my measurement of 29" was taken after the snow had settled a bit :)



We're going to shovel off the porch roof today before the next storm hits - forecasts of 10-20" starting today.


Schools are closed through the week. Aside from having to clear off the 770 buses in our school district, the superintendent points out that those buses need to be able to make turns and students need a safe place to wait at bus stops. Single lane streets in most neighborhoods (ours definitely), and snow piled up at the corners makes that rather difficult.

At least we can get mail (for today).

    Don't forget - if you don't have gmail (or refuse to get it like some people I know), you can use the coastfamily gmail account I set up to post comments here.

    And we are to have temps in the 70's this weekend. You are all welcome to come for a visit to thaw out. It sure looks beautiful though.
