The snow began falling in Maryland on Wednesday evening and by Thursday mid-day it had accumulated to about 12 inches. Thursday afternoon and evening brought light rain, sleet and a bit more snow. The temperature dropped overnight, and this morning we had an icy mess. However, by 1pm the temperature had climbed to about 50 degrees, and the melting began. I do have bikes with fenders, so off I rode into a beautiful and slightly surreal landscape. The air temperature felt like spring, but the landscape looked like winter. I encountered many runners forced into the street by unshoveled sidewalks. However, I was the only cyclist I encountered during the hour. Most streets were plowed, but some only one lane wide. Many intersections were still slush covered. Riding on Big Apples I navigated carefully and without incident through the slush. The photo of my bike was taken in front of a snow pile the plow trucks deposited in front of a road crossing for a hiker/biker trail. That will take a while to melt. The forecast is for more light snow tonight and colder temperatures tomorrow........spring can't be too far away, right? http://www.flickr.com/photos/86975051@N08/sets/72157640981555075/
