First, Happy Purple Monday! The Ravens are taking on the Houston Texans tonight, so my video this morning has me in my Joe Flacco jersey! Second, this morning's snow, as well as Friday's snow and last week's frigid temperatures had been thinking about how to make my Towson home ready for this winter. Hopefully we [...]
Well, of course, the snow is hurting the entire areas, but many homeowners are already having major issues with their homes due to this heavy snow and ice damming, and it appears a major amount of heavy snow may visit us tonight through tomorrow, freezing those gutters back up and re-creating problems. The other issue [...]
It looks like the beginning of next week will bring us more snow or ice, possibly mixed with rain or sleet. What does this mean for the Baltimore real estate market and Baltimore area homes? More trouble. In a city still in recovery mode from two blizzards last week, additional winter weather is not welcome [...]
As I showed condos today in the Stevenson area of Baltimore County, I was reminded of a few more issues that the snow/ice build up is causing to homes in the Baltimore area. As the weather warms some, and the snow melts, but then nights get cold and it freezes back up, large icicles can [...]
With Monday being President's Day, I don't think Towson school children will be wearing their pajamas inside out hoping for another snow day. They are already off school, and have been for a week now. We had two blizzards in one week, and now just 5 days after the last one left us, we could [...]
Today I was reminded as to the damage that heavy snow piling up can cause to your home, so hopefully these few tips can help you to minimize problems. The gutters above a window may be frozen solid and the heat from inside of the house is getting the snow to begin to melt. This [...]

Well, we are currently buried in about 30" of snow here in Towson, MD and just got reports that Baltimore County Schools are closed through Wednesday. I have a feeling that will be extended through the end of the week. Why? Snowpocalypse 2010 2.0 is apparently on its way. Originally forecasters were calling for around [...]
So Snowmaggedon, Snowpocalypse2010, SnoMG has begun. We have a good 4-6 inches on the ground already, with a predicted 20-30 inches total to expect. Here is how we look in Towson now, around 9 pm. We expect 6-10 inches overnight. I will continue to take photos and document the progression of the grill & hot [...]
Baltimore County schools are closed again tomorrow, Tuesday, December 22, 2009. That will be four days with more fanily togetherness than most of us are used to. So now what? Unless you are in the areas where a plow has not gotten to, there are fun things to do in Towson! The ever popular Kenilworth [...]
