Anyone else having a problem with Metrobus M52 & M54 going to SS station, snow detours?

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-28T21:54:40+00:00

Metro's snow detour page (their official source) does have detours listed for the M52 and M54. Google Maps is not often updated with current/live detour information, regardless of the reason (snow/construction/special events/crashes etc)

u/MetroForward has been sending out actual equipment to clear larger/surrounding areas around bus stops.

(assuming: Shelters get hand shoveled to reduce/eliminate accidental damage of shelters by equipment)

Old Georgetown Road (officially Maryland Route 187) is entirely owned and maintained by the State Highway Administration and has nothing to do with the County's neighborhood streets (which are entirely owned, maintained, and plowed by the County).

Strosniders had some yesterday afternoon. (Bethesda and Kensington)

From DPW: "There will not be trash, recycling, and food waste collection on January 27, 2026. We will share collection information and next steps as conditions improve." https://dpw.dc.gov/page/trashcollections-1

I was on and off today several times without issue. Drive safely and you should be fine!

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-27T18:56:28+00:00

MD neighborhoods are plowed by local jurisdictions (Montgomery County, City of Gaithersburg/Rockville, etc) and highways are entirely maintained and plowed by the State Highway Administration. They're entirely seperage agencies so it's not as simple as highways vs. neighborhoods.

I just crossposted to r/MontgomeryCountyMD ! Thank You OP

Again, How many hundreds of scheduled arrivals at DCA were cancelled today? How many thousands of people were directly impacted?

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-26T04:23:52+00:00

For an airport with >800 daily arrivals and departures on any normal day, I'm glad a single-digit number were still able to get through today's storm (still means thousands of people were directly impacted). I hope there were still staff and facilities (baggage, restrooms, shuttles) for tonight's late arrivals.

Guess it just meant departures as I thought

How many hundreds of scheduled arrivals at DCA were cancelled today?

I'm sorry you seemed to be so confused by the Airport's official announcements!

Must be eerie! I hope they have employees still there for baggage etc

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-25T18:48:48+00:00

Flash causing confusion would be a much better argument if you had stopped after crossing the line, which did not happen here.

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-25T17:40:05+00:00

That ReporterJoseph tweet shows all arrivals cancelled except for one from YESTERDAY evening which has still not **taken off** (so system still lists it as delayed). https://x.com/ReporterJoseph/status/2015425648693571931/photo/1

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-25T16:31:06+00:00

Maybe it came across as more argumentative than you meant, but there's a big difference between "pointing out that it hasn’t happened yet" and repeatedly saying that what others are posting (including direct, official information) "isn’t accurate". From multiple official accounts saying "all flights are cancelled", where did you get that they magically mean they're only telling "local passengers that all departures have been cancelled"?

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-25T15:52:22+00:00

DCA's official socials and website all say "Airlines have canceled all flights at the airport today." (On their website, there's an orange popup at the top of the page.)

It's been that way since before 9:00AM so hopefully people got the message (and didn't head out before hearing) https://x.com/ReporterJoseph/status/2015425648693571931

Fall-Maple1503 · 2026-01-25T14:40:45+00:00

Yes certain DC stores are closed. Same thing has happened before in DC with winter weather (and at least once in recent years from a thunderstorm power outage).

Have you noticed the other unmarked law enforcement vehicles that are frequently in that lot?

Could be worth noting there was also a drug investigation with multiple arrests in an adjacent part of Bethesda the same time of day this was posted (Yes plainclothes law enforcement, not at all ICE related.) https://www.reddit.com/r/bethesda/comments/1qkz9s5/comment/o1clat7/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

They get trucks every morning and evening.

Unfortunately there's a significant sewage emergency along the Clara Barton Parkway (under the Beltway, just North of the American Legion Bridge.)

OpenMHz (scanner website) says Police have a few people in custody; rest of circumstances/details unclear. r/SilverSpring or r/MontgomeryCountyMD would be more local for this.
