Persistant Winter Storms Thrash Through the States a Second Time in Two Weeks Winter weary resident say what, not again! Another possible 30" of snow predicted. Reports from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says, A major winter storm brought widespread heavy snow across parts of the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Storm totals of up to 40 inches were reported before snow ended Saturday evening. From Southern Minnesota to Arkansas, to Tennessee, through Kentucky, through Washington, D.C. Maryland, the Jersery Shore, Pennssylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin and Illinois,Delaware, Virginia, and West Virginia we are about to go through the same tortous wait again. Tractor Trailors have jacknifed and caused many delays and other accidents, while other drivers have been just plain careless and been on the roads when they were asked not to be. State troopers across Maryland report disabled vehicles have been their most frequent response call during the storm so far, as they continue to work with members of the National Guard and Natural Resources Police to respond to calls for service. Colonel Terrence B. Sheridan, Superintendent of the Maryland State Police, has deployed more than 70 extra troopers, not normally assigned to road patrol duties, to supplement the regular patrol force during the storm. All four-wheel drive vehicles in the State Police fleet have been deployed to road patrol troopers. Members of the Maryland National Guard equipped with Humvees have been stationed at State Police barracks throughout the State. National Guard personnel are teamed up with state troopers and are providing transportation assistance in response to calls for service. Commanders of all 22 State Police barracks are reporting disabled vehicles are their most frequent call for service. These calls are usually involving vehicles and drivers who are not equipped to travel in this type of extreme weather and are becoming stuck in the snow. Troopers are reporting that most drivers of the disabled vehicles have no important or emergency purpose for being on the highway. Disabled vehicles are causing significant problems for snow removal crews and are inhibiting the emergency response of police and fire personnel. GOVERNOR O’MALLEY SIGNS EMERGENCY DECLARATION AS MARYLAND PREPARES FOR ANOTHER MAJOR WINTER SNOWSTORM ANNAPOLIS, MD (February 5, 2010) – Governor Martin O’Malley Friday issued a Declaration of Emergency as another major winter storm took aim on Maryland and the Middle Atlantic region. The declaration will give the state flexibility to activate the Maryland National Guard and provide assistance to local emergency managers. “Maryland National Guard Units are prepared to assist local emergency managers and first responders around the state, and have already begun deployment to throughout Maryland,” Governor O’Malley said. “We urge residents to avoid driving except for the most urgent reasons. If drivers stay off the roads it will help the dedicated state and local highway crews clear the rods in a safe and efficient manner.” The National Weather Service is predicting snowfall amounts of up to two feet in northern and central Maryland, with somewhat less in western Maryland and a possible mix of rain, sleet and accumulating snows on the lower Eastern Shore. This snowfall is expected to be as serious as the December storm that left upwards of 20 inches of snow on much of Maryland. The National Guard has more than 100 Humvees and 5-ton trucks and military ambulances ready to respond. Maryland SHA and MdTA have 2,400 pieces of equipment and 2,700 personnel available to respond. State officials monitor storm from SHA’s Statewide Operations Center in Hanover where it has centralized communications and access to over 150 traffic cameras located around the state. Governor O’Malley also ordered a liberal leave policy for all state employees effective at noon today.Retailers Brace for Major Winter Storm Sweep of the East Coast Retailers Home Depot and Giant employees give it their all to satisfy customers needs before the sweeping winter storm arrives. Home Depot employees stock shelves many times with snow shovels,snow blowers,ice melt,portable heaters,pellet fuel, and home generators. Reach truck drivers in stores continue to pull full pallets down overnight and restock for customers needs. Giants employees stock shelves of groceries continually. Meat lockers are waiting for fresh new cuts. Fruits, and fresh vegetables are being trucked in overnight by freight truck drivers keeping pace with their orders as the big 16 wheelers keep gettig up and rolling into freight docks with their replacement stocks.
Remember to KeepYour Pets Safe Be sure to make a safe and secure place for your pets, or bring them inside for their own safety. It is too late once they get lost, or hit by a slidding car, or get frostbitten.
Keep Your Children Safe and Warm, Inside During a Howling Winter Storm Do not let children go outside in a winter storm without being able to see them easily through your window at all times. They must have hands and feet and all body parts covered with winter clothing. To include a scarfe around their neck and covering their nose is smart. No skin can show or they might get frostbitten in a matter of a few minutes. If they get wet, hypothermia is a real danger, because that is when more heat is lost than your body can generate. Death can occur quickly in children, older adults, and anyone who gets too wet who does not dry out enough.
