It’s been almost two years since twin blizzards struck the Mid-Atlantic states, in some places dropping nearly five feet of snow, with much more widespread amounts of two to four feet. Last year I made an anniversary post of the systems at my hometown, so to avoid repeating myself I’d like to highlight some of the pictures and comments posted on some of the online weather message boards.
In this shot you can clearly see a mountainous snow drift at someone’s patio door. This was one of the harder hit areas of Westminster, MD which is east of Baltimore, MD and north of Washington, DC. For several days following these events, home owners couldn’t even find their mailboxes when they left their homes, because the snow was too deep.
Other people were a little more fortunate as their whitehall mailboxes had been installed in areas where the wind was blowing snow away from them, rather than on top of them.
There are other whitehall products such as plaques, bird feeders, garden accents, and more. Those who didn’t think ahead to pull them inside before the storm ended up having to dig them out, as illustrated below:
All in all these were historic events that many probably will never see in their lifetime again, at least in the DC metro area.
