Where are you located? We have six inches already.

And will get at most 2 more this evening. Not the 10-12 people were salivating over.

Looks like a bust. Shovel this morning and maybe do a quick touch up this afternoon.

As a New Englander, every 2 inches or so

Look at map. No snow inside beltway!!!

Tons of snow now outside beltway.

Um. I live on Capitol Hill and our street is covered in snow.

I’ll do a first pass with the shovel before 9 am and then we’ll shovel throughout the day, including one of our neighbors’ sidewalks. It’s so beautiful out there!

Hmmm. DCA is inside beltway and lots of snow there.

Shovel in the afternoon, then lay down ice melt.

I have strong feelings about this:

I grew up in a snowy place and the right answer is to shovel all public walkways at dawn for the safety of your neighborhood, and then to tackle your driveway so that no one suspects you either slept in, don’t care, or are dead. If you didn’t shovel at dawn, your neighbors would assume something like carbon monoxide poisoning and bang on your door until you woke up. If the snow is continuously falling, you go out every hour to do another pass.

Then I lived in a very unusual place where we got >30 feet of snow each year. There we never ever stop shoveling. If there wasn’t fresh snow, then you used the time to obsess over tidying your snowbanks or trying to chip at ice patches to get to bare asphalt (a rare and aspirational feat!).

I’ll be out at dawn!

Confirmation the political scene in this town is literally full of hot air...

Ideally I'd like to avoid having to shovel too much before leaving for work around 8am.

Not quite over, but mostly over. So yeah, do the main cleanup around 10am and then come back around in the afternoon and get the additional inch or two that falls.

I put a bunch of salt out tonight. I'm curious to see how that does.
