One More Photo Tonight...Heavy Snow

             Had to take one more photo tonight just to show you the weight of the snow.

 

                                        Heavy Baltimore Snow HomeRome 410-530-2400

 Our weather today in Baltimore was most unusual.  This morning snow, then clear, then rain, then sleet, then heavy snow and the latest is wind. These are the branches of my shade tree that also hold three bird feeders. That is a lot of weight... as you can see the branches are down on my porch chair.

This is a serious problem with power lines. Please check this information below from BGE.

I know the summers there are probably great, but I would much rather suffer the heat in summer here in Corpus Christi that freeze in the winter with you there.  Come on down and visit, guarantee, no snow, no ice, no sleet.

Margaret, we are very lucky, we can take this pictures. When I saw Tom Ferry's video today, I realized what they are missing in CA!

Good tip on power lines.

Do I like so much of snow? Not exactly, as I'll have to get up early tomorrow and clean up about a foot of snow so my wife can go to work.

You should consider Hamilton, MT. We've been in the 40's and no snow left on the ground at this point. Just harassing you -- we had our share early in the winter starting before Thanksgiving! I was beginning to think we wouldn't see the ground until June, so we're enjoying our current warm snap. Used to live in Ohio and I sure don't miss the heavy wet snow or freezing rain, we don't have much of either one out here. Our snow is usually dry and powdery. Good luck, you folks in the east have been having your share this year.

WOW! Time to get out there with a broom and knock some of that snow off, or no shade in the summer!  Eh, what do I know, it was a nice 74 degrees here in So. California.

Surely its really freezing night outside there. Just stay warm inside or have some hot choco or tea will do.

All I can say is, wish I could click my heals and go home! LOL  It was 80's and the Santa Anas were blowing yesterday.  No matter how pretty the snow pics are, I don't enjoy being in the snow, unless I'm on vacation. :)

Good Morning Margaret

Your photos tell an great story of a harsh winter.  It seems surreal to those of us in Florida.

Margaret, I used to love it when the snow got it's "crispy" topping of frozen rain then glistened all about as the sun met it in the morning.

Margaret, now that is some heavy snow you are having.  We only received 6 inches here in Kentucky.  Be safe and some fun throwing snowballs.

Lizette, You are right about the heavy wet snow!.

Dr.Stacey, We didn't but my daughter, a mile away, has not power. And she can't get to my house because of my streets.

Kevin, We have plenty of crispy snow here but it is high.

Allison, Harsh, yet beautiful.

Barbara, Hope you are getting some good photos.

Roger, Believe me, it is very real.

Gail, If you don't enjoy this weather...oh never mind. Pretend you are on vacation. Fake it.

Krista, Cold is what winter is about. Thanks for the suggestion.

Tony, The break we got...it stopped.

Jeffrey, The sun has done that work for me..the tree is back where it belongs.

Jeff, This one is definitely not powdery.

Praful, Was your wife able to go to work?

Melissa, Never tire of the beauty.

Suzanne, Not me. I can live without heat before AC.

Rosalinda, Thanks for being my first comment. Hope you have taken some photos to share.

My beautiful Crape Myrtle was collapsing under the weight of the snow last night so I donned some heavy clothes and went out to save her.  I shook off all the snow on the branches I could reach and used a long extension pole to get the snow up high on the branches.  Today she looks great and I think she's gonna survive another winter storm!

Dan,  Good move.

My tree came back on its own. Don't know about any of the other bushes and shrubs at the time.

Margaret,

I was concerned about the weight of the snow on those branches when I first saw it. Sounds like you have everything under control.

I hope you get to have a break and the sun melts some of that snow for you. You really deserve a break and a chance to get outside and breathe warmer air without the boots, scarfs, gloves, and layers of winter clothing.
