Kim, the blog is getting more interesting again with the various commentators and input. I'm really curious to hear some discussion with what went wrong with all the snow forecasts yesterday. Was it all hype to begin with, or did something fundamental change at the last moment? Perhaps Eric the Red could weigh in.

Hi, Kim
As Business Manager of the Fort Ritchie Community Center, I thought I should clarify that
Fort Ritchie is in Washington County, not Frederick.
THanks, Kim, and come up and see us on Jan 1st for our polar plunge in Lake Royer on the Fort Ritchie campus.
Kirsten
KW: Thanks for letting me know. I fixed the post.
