Thread: Pittsburgh Blizzard of 2010 ((PICS))

I dont know if anyone heard of or experienced the blizzard that hit pittsburgh area baltimore DC and surrounding areas, but it was reallly bad. we measured outside my house yesterday and got 26 inches in under a day and a half. it snowed friday night into saturday and the roads STILL arent cleared. they cancelled all the school because alot of roads havent been touched at all. its reallllly bad. so here are some pictures


the mail box


pile by the pole


view down the street


the neighbors hottub cabana and pool


another street view


our little lights going up the walk (buried lol)


view of the house and the gp (took 4 hours to uncover the car and do the drive way!!)


our lovely still covered with ice and snow street (believe it or not this is excellent for pittsburgh right now)


my 150lb great pyrenese lizzie (who's back comes to my hip) in the back yard!

hope you enjoyed!

doesnt look that bad. id be the guy who actually went to work. living in wisconsin ive learned to deal with it. although, i know there are a lot of people who still suck at driving in it.

well this area doesnt get snow like that often its like once every 15-30 years we get a bad snow like that. so people around here arent used to it, trees where down most of the city is without power because of down power lines, we were in state of emergency for three days. im finally able to leave the house today (thank god) so if i see anything else bad ill take more pictures

School don't get canceled up here unless its likes -30 with a -50 windchill

we got about 2 feet here

Glad I have 4x4 and a snowmobile. I would have ridden my sled to work. LOL that would be funny to be cruzin down the express way on my sled at 80. Think I would get a ticket? Better yet think they could catch me?????

^^^Yes.

Most people in MI just deal with it, but theres always a few who are whining about how the roads are so dangerous. Those are probably the same people who traded in their 4x4 for a Prius last fall.

Guess that depends. Here a cop might have his own sled, so watch yourself =0.

the dnr around here has 2 brand new sled. ones a yamaha nytro and the others a polaris dragon turbo. needless to say alot of people can still outrun them cuz they are both stock haha

well like i said before i understand yinz up north get alot of snow. but down here we dont lol they cancelled colleges and alll the schools for the entire week. so by this point i almost killed my 14 and 16 year old sisters. cuz after we had that snow we got anoter 6-8 inches on wednesday when they didnt even clean up the roads for this weekend. some neighborhoods in our area STILL havent even had their roads touched. at all. which is ridiculous in my opinion.

oh really where are you from?
