It’s getting harder to deny that we brought the Massachusetts weather down to Maryland. But the snowstorm that finished last night is bigger than I encountered in all the years I lived in Massachusetts. And Silver Spring didn’t even get the very worst of it.
Whenever it has snowed this winter – and it’s snowed a lot – Maddie has asked: Is this a blizzard? I think that it finally was on Friday night. The snowbaby we built on Friday afternoon is still visible, but only as the bump he makes under the feet of snow that fell since.
Unlike some of the other people on our street, we didn’t lose power, or have trouble getting a car out or back in to a parking space.
Schools in Moco are closed tomorrow and Tuesday. I am tempted to grumble about the wimpishness of the school closing decisions, but given that Maddie’s school is on one of the streets that lost power, it might have had to stay closed anyway.
