Mcps and I’m not setting an alarm regardless.

Do people think we’re likely to lose power in MoCo with this storm?

No, the snow is supposed to be on the light, fluffy side. Outages are expected to the south, with wetter snow/freezing rain, but not MoCo.

Depends on how much falls in the snowiest part of MoCo.

Next week. Closed all week. The region can’t handle a few inches let along more.

Over in the FCPS snow thread, I added my all caps prediction and so I pronounce thusly;

FCPS WILL BE CLOSED THE ENTIRE WEEK.

They closed. If you telework, you will do that. I don’t, so I’m off.

OPM app says Federal Government offices are closed but with Maximum Telework. Remote and telework-eligible employees must still work. Emergency essential still need to report to work.

I have to work tomorrow. But it’s double time and a half so that’s a win. I work 12 hours Monday and Tuesday so am probably just going to sleep close to work. They’re paying to put us up in a hotel.
Luckily my spouse is off tomorrow and can handle childcare etc.

Absolutely, if we get 8+ inches.
