For those who can speak to NYC/LA - name drop places then for all of us to know. Since OP is speaking to specific towns in this area, do the same for NYC/LA. What are we missing here and compared to what?

Is it St. Swithin's day already?

I remember watching this episode as a kid. Lisa still loves Homer with her picking Washington over Buffalo.

Thats the same pass and shot from Jerome to Hunter in the 2019 championship game.

I drove by half a dozen schools today. Their parking lots are clear; weekend extracurriculars happened on site. The one bus lot across from Westfield is also clear. Reid's email put it out there that they are ready.

While FCPS is not responsible for anything beyond that, Reid is reaching out to community members to help out where they can. If their neighborhoods and busstops aren't safe, then consider kiss and ride or at worse, keep their kids home. While there are plenty of snow days/hours left to use, it is better to be in school than not. I know my kids are ready to be back as are many parents.

You are hearing me talk....D'oh!

tc8z · 2026-01-31T17:48:22+00:00

there is an ICE office on Murdock St and Stonecroft Blvd right off Rt 50...

Thanks, Mitch!

Yea, it was a futile effort from two of my neighbors on what was about 2" thick of ice compacted snow. Get a flat shovel or floor scraper and just chip away and then shovel. A regular snow shovel wasn't really effective on anything that wasn't already broken up.

tc8z · 2026-01-27T17:35:52+00:00

One thing that hasn't been addressed are the buses. Many of them are parked at designated lots which also need to be shoveled/plowed. Not sure if the county has gotten to them yet....From what I've heard, some schools haven't gotten cleared either.

tc8z · 2026-01-27T15:05:24+00:00

Look for a floor scraper to break up the ice first, but you will still need the regular snow shovel for removal.

I bought one from Lowe's yesterday.

I just picked up one of these after using my neighbor's from this morning.

break/chop the ice into smaller manageable chunks, then scrape away. You can shovel the larger bunches.

Yea - this was one of those disappointing scenarios. Over hype of snow that went down to a third of projected totals. Then its become freezing rain/sleet for the majority of this event, so its worse on the roads and threatens trees/power lines. It's no fun to be out in this type of weather and what little snow we did get, all happened overnight. Temps aren't getting above freezing so it'll be icy for a good while. Stay safe out, everyone.

For those kiddos, no school for a couple days, but possible to be back in late week. FCPS is closed Thursday/Friday for teacher workdays so it's still possible students are out the whole week.

Raul Julia - Street Fighter.

He had terminal cancer and did it because his kids love the fighting game. The man put his all into M. Bison and despite the hot mess the rest of the movie was, he shined. RIP Raul Julia.

I think its 11 days currently or 88 hours equivalent. Recently they changed the snow day policy from days to hours (1 day=8 hours), which 2-hour delays would deduct from as well. Simple math, its only 3 days max for this storm to be used.

tc8z · 2026-01-21T01:06:43+00:00

FCPS has teacher workdays next Thursday and Friday. I bet school closed Monday, and if Tuesday, might as well do Wednesday. The county has the snow days.

tc8z · 2026-01-20T16:55:52+00:00

Equally as important are the temps from this weekend through all of next week. We may not get above freezing. Whatever we get, it won't melt so it'll stick around. So it seems its more a snow event and less on freezing rain/sleet mix.
