Garrrett County's Famous for Winter Storms (again)

The website TornadoVideos.net picked up some of my photos from the latest winter storm here in Garrett County, which I have dubbed ‘Snowpacalypse 3′. Ironically, we had another 3 feet of snow drop in the area during this latest blizzard, according to the National Weather Service in Pittsburgh. The storm has weakened, but we are still expecting another 6-12 inches of snow today. Assuming that these totals are accurate, we are at approximately 23 feet of snow for the season! 23 FEET!

From their story at TVN:

The latest in a series of nor’easters is currently wreaking havoc across the central Atlantic into New England. States from Vermont to West Virgina are experiencing some of the most brutal conditions of the season today as a monstrous low pressure system wobbles over the region, bringing HEAVY snow and near hurricane-force winds. Blizzard conditions have been causing serious problems all across the northeast, including power outages, massive flight cancellations and major road closures. These conditions are likely to persist until sometime tomorrow! Included are photos from New York City, which has picked up nearly 20″ of snow, and western Maryland, where another 3+foot snow event is underway. Thanks to everyone who contributed!

Snowpacalypse 3 in Garrett County & Deep Creek Lake

Wow. What a blizzard out there. We have at least a foot and a half of new snow on the ground since yesterday, and another foot and a half supposedly falling over the next 18 hours. This is an incredible noreaster with 45-50 mph wind gusts. I waited for the Garrett County Roads plow truck to plow out my neighborhood and then hit the road for some supplies. Here is a gallery of photos of downtown Oakland on Facebook. Several businesses remained open, but its so bad that Walmart shut its doors due to weather for the first time that I ever rememeber since they have been in Oakland.
