Carroll County Public Schools to close one-hour early today

Carroll County Public Schools to close one-hour early today

By Kevin Dayhoff  shar.es/XFTJo 

Posted 1/11/11 Kevin Dayhoff Explore Carroll: Carroll County Public Schools to close one-hour early today http://www.explorecarroll.com/news/5065/carroll-county-public-schools-close-one-hour-early-today/

Carroll County Public Schools announced at 10:20 this morning that it will close Carroll County schools one-hour early today.  All afternoon and evening activities are canceled and there will be no afternoon Pre-K because of expected inclement weather later this afternoon in the Carroll County area.

Various weather reports indicate that the Carroll County area could possibly see an accumulation of three to five inches beginning jst around the time folks will start heading home from work.

The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a “Winter Weather Advisory” for the Carroll, Frederick, Howard, Baltimore County area.  According to the NWS, “Low pressure off the Carolina coast will strengthen and quickly move northward up the Eastern Seaboard.  The wintry mix of precipitation associated with this storm will continue to progress northward along the East Coast…”

According to weatherbug.com, later this evening two major storm systems will combine “to form a classic coastal storm” along the east coast.  “An area of low pressure, the same one responsible for heavy snow and freezing rain across the Southeast, has pushed off the Georgia coast, and is starting to march northeastward toward the North Carolina Outer Banks.  Meanwhile, a second area of low pressure is chugging eastward through the Ohio Valley, bringing along another plume of snow from the Mid-Mississippi Valley to the Midwest.”

Frank Roylance, who writes about “Maryland Weather” in the Baltimore Sun notes, “NWS forecasters expect temperatures to hold in the lower 30s, so the event is likely to remain all-snow…. 

“Central and Southern Maryland should expect 3 to 5 inches of snow tonight, with the heaviest amounts close to the Chesapeake Bay, falling off to the west and south.”

Emergencyemail.org reports that a winter storm watch now in effect from Tuesday afternoon through late Tuesday night with the potential for five or more inches of snow.

The snow is predicted to develop during the late afternoon or early evening on Tuesday and continue through Tuesday night with temperatures in the lower 30s and dip to the 20s Tuesday night and northwest winds five to 10 mph increasing to 10 to 15 mph later in the evening.

A winter storm watch, according to emergencyemail.com, means “there is a potential for significant snow accumulations that may impact travel.”

The weather predictions of snow in the Carroll County area come on the heels of last Saturday morning’s light dusting of snow that triggered the snow emergency plan for the Carroll County area for several hours in the morning, but for the most part, only amounted to being a nuisance.

According to a Westminster street department employee, the road crews for Westminster city reported for work around 4 a.m. and easily got the light dusting under control.

At approximately 9 o’clock Saturday morning, the main roads at the intersection of Liberty and Main Street at the railroad tracks made for a picturesque winter-in-Westminster scene, but otherwise, the streets were in good shape for driving.

The photograph on the left is from the family papers of Caroline Babylon and Kevin Dayhoff ©. Depicted is a scene from the February 14, 1899 blizzard. The view is of Main Street, looking west over the railroad tracks at the intersection of Main Street and Liberty Street. Oral history indicates that the individuals in the photo include family member Frank Thomas Babylon. [18990214 Main St during Blizzard]

For contrast this image to the right is from approximately the same era in time. Although this image is from family papers, the image is well circulated and thought to be from a post card. [19000000 Main St and RR Babylon Bldg]

Snow – again

Snow – again

Wednesday, February 3, 2010 by Kevin Dayhoff

The white winter stuff hit Carroll County for the second time in as many days Tuesday.

Just last Saturday almost five inches of a light powdery snow fell on the area. Although Carroll missed the brunt of the storm that dumped as much as a foot of snow on the lower Eastern Shore, the wintry weather still made driving treacherous.

On Tuesday another three to six inches fell on the Westminster area, causing the Westminster street department snow removal crews to be out in force overnight clearing the city streets.

The wet-heavy snowfall Tuesday made for beautiful scenery as it stuck to the trees and shrubbery, but that was lost on drivers negotiating the slick winter mess on the roads.

The lights of Westminster, Maryland reflecting off the silent-falling night snow cast a surreal orange hue on the horizon of the community nestled over the next hill.

Where did all the snow go?

Welcome to Maryland weather. It was only a week ago when we were toughing it out under almost two feet of snow.

All last week, news accounts trickled-in from throughout the state of various local governments having a tough time clearing the snow for Christmas week.

Not so in Westminster. On Sunday, December 20, 2009, Uniontown Road in Westminster was already a bare road less than 12 hours after the snow stopped; thanks to the great work of the Westminster MD Street Department.

And our front sidewalk has been cleared thanks to our new neighbors across the street.

Yes, we have every older person’s dream come true – a nice very young couple has moved-in just across the street.

In a phone interview with Larry Bloom, the Westminster street department superintendent at 6:45 pm, he said that the Westminster crews started working on clearing the city streets at 11:30 pm the night before.

Even Jeff Glass, the city of Westminster public works director is out plowing. He asked that city residents please stay off the streets as much as possible to give the crews some time to get the streets cleared.

Although I did eventually venture out in the snow to go to the festival of Wreaths at the Carroll County Arts Center and had dinner with sister and her husband, Grammy, Mrs. Owl; this was my predominant view of today’s snowfall, from inside the house looking out.

Although I really enjoy photographing snow; I don’t understand snow. I don’t do snow.
