holy moses, it’s actually snowing?!?

it seems like every other year, the D.C. weathermen predict at least one “major” storm that will paralyze the city … although, seeing that three inches of snow is more than enough to bring D.C. to its knees, i guess “major” is a relative term.

we’re supposedly at 10 inches, which would already puts us in the top five storms of the last twenty years. we got 24 inches of snow my junior year of college, a much smaller storm (maybe a foot?) in high school, and i remember using a yardstick to measure a 20+ incher back when i was seven or eight.

outside of those, we’ve had way more false alarms than anything of interest … which is a good thing, because in the end D.C. is a southern town, and southerners (a) refuse to walk or use public transit, and (b) only think they know how to drive on snow.

    Evan, I seem to have stolen one of your photos from google images for a Pfeiffer’s Hardware email. I’m happy to give you credit if you give me permission to use your snow photos in future postings. Sorry about asking forgiveness rather than permission – my wife is the one who brought it to my attention. By the way, nice blog. And congratulations on Baby Sparklet!

    Here’s the email with stolen photo.

    Thanks, Todd Pfeiffer
