To anyone who needs to travel to Frederick County , Maryland...
DON'T. I just heard that 75% of the roads in the county are closed because of being impassible and that there are people who were trapped on I-70 overnight...

2. To be fair
We aren't dealing with the 12 ft snow drifts down here like they are....I heard about a fire engine WITH CHAINS on it that got stuck and had to have the firefighters rescued...:wow:

4. Wow. I dug out fire hydrants yesterday. On Wisc. Ave. folks took yellow police tape and
tied them to the hydrants and then tied the other end to a tree or pole so they could be found in an emergency.

5. My best friend lives in Boonesboro, off I-70.
If I-70 is horrible, I can't imagine what those narrow, windy two lane side roads look like.
