Going to see my first big snowfall here - 12/18/09 04:31 PM

In Virginia its calling for a big snow storm in the DMV area(DC,Marland,Virginia), Im sure tbat will get some snow too. Its all over the news and its suppose to come here at 8pm supposely. I just thought it was nice to post this since everybody always talks about how much snow they had and now I can add to the list, but it gets crazy around here when there's bad whether because people don't know how to drive.

Yeah, valdez got close to 6 feet, haha..
That storm hit us in Eagle River as well.. we got closer to a little over 2 feet though..

The snow gets packed down and froze into a solid ice.. The temperature right now is -11 F.. So everything is definitely frozen solid.

It was 1 inches this morning when I have to go Saturday work. Then in afternoon, it was raining which it was wipe the snow off. It already has 3 single car accident itself this morning. I mean come on... 1 inches snow and 3 big wrecks? People can't drive very good. Traffic was nightmare because of that stupid crash. :rolleyes:
