As If Mondays Weren’t Bad Enough, 7 Inches of Snow On My Car At 3AM Didn’t Help

Posted on
Well it’s Monday. 3 days til Spring…and there’s about 10 inches of snow in Germantown, MD. Looks like old St. Patrick sent us some shi…shenanigans for today. In western PA, looking at a cold morning but nice day. This dry pattern will continue into tomorrow before a chance of rain and snow move in on Wednesday. For DC, could see a few more instances of snow today before it tapers off. A chance of rain will move in on Wednesday. Anyone else ready for Spring weather?
